Sounds great garsands. I haven't been on today as I've been visiting relatives, but I'll be on in a bit and I'll try and sort some prices out :)

Do you want me to modify and post up a price list? Also, do you want every item on the list for sale? Any restrictions? Do we need a physical hub to buy/sell stuff too? I don't know how it works in-game.

Glad to hear that the rollbacks are hopefully fixed too!

Yes please, just do the to buy list as I can do the sell back list all I need to do is / by 4

Do you want every item on the list for sale?
No but I will leave it to you, may be just do the basic ones first so we can get the shop started then add items as we go. But keep the list in the same order as it is now, just leave the price as '0' if you don't want it to be on the shop for now.

Any restrictions?
TNT or if you want to sell it make it a high price like 5000 cobblestone, that would be same for gunpowder.

Do we need a physical hub to buy/sell stuff too? I don't know how it works in-game.
Players can use a command to list the shops buy & sell prices for items
or
We could display some of the items like in a server shop for players to walk in and look at the items for sell with prices on a sign. I did this for a while on the old world.
or
You could just make loads of signs on a wall listing the prices.

What is confusing is the mod uses names for the items that don't match 100% with what minecraft names items, so when you have finshed I will need to test the shop to make sure all the items are for sell that you ment to be.
Would have been easyer if the mod used the minecraft item codes to set up the shop. You can buy & sell using the item codes or names but not to set it up.
I use this list to match items names to there codes

Like I said the hard part is making sure it does not cost cheaper to buy a item ready made then it does to make it yourself.
It's not a easy job.

Things like armor/weapons & food should cost a lot to buy as I think players are planning to set up shops to sell to other players so the server shop must not under cut them.

Tools can be cheap ish as it's no fun if you can't mine & are also a item that can be cheaper to buy ready made then to make.

I also may change the BUY to SELL ratio on some items.

The shop is here add something extra to the game but not to make easyer for players to build its more of a rich hard working players shop, the more you mine & sell the better items you can get to add to your buildings to give a sgin of weath.

I will not be building any big diamond blocked buildings on this server so any big posh buildings will be a sign that a player has worked for it.

Garsands do you still intend to give every player a 'vault' that only they can teleport into?

Yes I do was just saying about it on the server it's my next job to do, but I can't do it till the server is empty as I need to clear a huge amount of space underground at the base of the world out of the way.
I will be doing this using a command but it may crash the server in doing so & I can't risk that while players are on.

If I can't find a time on Monday when there's not meny on I will do a world save then warn the players that the server may crash, if it does I just have to reload the world save.

Easiest thing to do there is to set it up in a spreadsheet, then you can just set up the formulae for each item to make sure you get it all right. It'll even update when you need to tweak the raw material prices. :)

gars could i give you a hand with the vaults? would it be possible to place them under the bank? stacked perhaps? no one needs to dig there as it's spawn so they needn't inconvenience people in other parts of the map.


on a similar note spawn is pretty much laid out foundation wise, floor needs to be half blocked, shop is being built by aypez (apez?) and the wall need hollowing out so that its internal area is 3 blocks high and 7 wide, on my list of things to do is to design the town hall/spawn building, i've got a few ideas but i need time time to plan it out on paper.

anyway, i wont be back on until about 8 tomorrow night so have fun mining chaps.

The problem you are going to have is all you are going to see from the outside is a 198 x 198 bedrock cude & if it was under the spawn it would also start just below gound level & go all the way down to the bedrock base of the world.
You could have steps going down to each vault but as there are no doors the steps would lead no where.
 
Well been on for hours sorting spawn point, been through hundres of spades and picks, has been good fun.

Gar send me your paypal details as soon as you can I want to send some funds to keep the server going/increase slots etc.

i just figured as people weren't going to be digging under spawn it would make it the perfect place for the vaults :p
 
Hmmm, I learnt my lesson about fire and the distance it needs to be from my house/other trees.


Sorry :(
