Shops & Economy¶

Buying, selling and being charged. Most of these turn out to be the same shop with a different argument.

• Automatic currency exchange at the till — Short on gold and long on silver, the till converts the exact minimum — by searching a quote that only runs the other way
  Currency, Economy · Subtle
• Coin-operated pickups — vending plates, toll gates, paid doors — A coin-operated door or vending plate, ordered so the money only moves once the goods have landed
  Pickups, Currency · Subtle
• Dynamic shop prices from the buyer's status effects — Prices that read the buyer's condition at the moment of the sale
  Economy, Status Effects · Focused
• Health as currency — a shop that takes payment in blood — The same shop service and the same price bundle, with a wallet that happens to be a body
  Economy, Health, Currency · Focused
• Paid healing — a healer who charges by the point — Bill for the healing that actually landed, not the healing that was asked for
  Health, Currency · Composite
• Persistent shop stock — a shop that remembers — Stock that goes down when players buy things, and is still as they left it after a reload
  Economy, Save · Subtle
• Shop purchases with a full inventory — The purchase lands on the floor instead of the sale failing: the same shop, with a different store
  Economy, Pickups, Inventory · Subtle
