Stands need a complete overhaul please.

My main goal in this game is to be a simple merchant hermit providing goods to the local neighborhood, and stands would be perfect if they worked reasonably well.

Double list, one for buying, one for selling, point system to exchange items from one for items from the other, plox. It's pretty much how every Apples for Oranges thread works.

But yeah, just fixing the damn barter stand for now would be great. They're pointless when I can't request what I really want.

Agreed, but since the devs clearly don't want to redo these things, let them at least fix sausages and shit in the current system, for now.

Thank you, just wanted it somewhere they'd see it (not that they'll look in C&I anytime soon :P )

Well, I think Jackard raised their attention for this topic in the IP anyway by posting it over and over ;)

That's funny considering my proposed point system was aggressively shot down. By yourself no less.

Hey, can't a man change his mind? Anyway, my main problem with it was virtual virtual money, which I still think is a bad idea. The stand should simply give coins as change.

Well what do you think points are?

And it's not as though you could exchange favors with players.

The difference is that points aren't stored between trades.
