[General] Marketplace and Limited Stock Items

Not open for further replies.
How does the Marketplace work exactly? I know that it cycles items every now and then, and when you buy the item, it disappears.

I'm planning on making an RPG that has a shop that randomly stocks items, as I don't want players just having several copies of an item and making themselves powerful. A shop system which makes the items limited, such as potions and equipment.

Any insight or link towards existing tutorials about this would be appreciated! I tried searching online but it's not as in-depth as I'd like it to be.
 
Your custom Marketplace needs the following abilities: Select Hero, Sell Items, and Shop Purchase Item. In addition, all items are added to shop via triggers. Also, the owner of your custom Marketplace has to be a Neutral Player for the limiting of items to take place.

When adding items via triggers, item positions might need to be considered. Check out the object editor for that.
