What is a Trade Rule?

Trade rules are specially applied rules that can be applied to either a specific trade, or to the trader as a whole. They can either limit who is allowed to interact with the trade, or modify the trade's price. You can edit a trader or trades trade rule via the Trade Rule button on the Trader Storage Screen and the Item Price Screens.

Trade Rules on a Trader vs. Trade Rules on a Trade

When a trade rule is applied to a trader, it will apply to every trade that the trader has and/or will ever have. When a trade rule is applied to a trade, it will only be applied that specific trade, and can be used for more unique trades from the trader (such as limiting the trade so that players can only buy 1 beacon per customer while still allowing them to buy as much bread as they wish)

Trade Rule Screen

The trade rule screen, allows you to add and delete trade rules for this trade/trader.

  • You can click on any + button to add the designated trade rule.
  • You can click on any - button to remove an existing trade rule.
  • The tabs at the top allows you to edit that trade rule's specific settings.
  • The back button on the right side returns you to the previous screen.

Trade Rule List

Whitelist

The Whitelist rule limits who is allowed to use this/these trade(s) to only players listed on the list.

Blacklist

The Blacklist rule also limits who is allowed to use this/these trade(s) to any player not on the list.

Player Trade Limit

The Player Trade Limit rule limits how many trades each user can interact with before they're locked out of that trade/trader.

  • The top most input lets you define how many trades each player is allowed to do. Don't forget to hit the Set button to set the value.
  • The Clear Memory button will make the trade rule forget the trade history, allowing players to once again interact with the trade/trader anew.
  • The time input at the bottom allows you to define a duration after which the trader will ignore previous trade memory. Useful for if you want to limit a trade to 1 time per player per day.

Trade Limit

The Trade Limit rule behaves similarly to the Player Trade Limit rule, however it does not discriminate on player, and once the defined amount of interactions have been done it will lock all players out of that trade/trader.

  • The top most input lets you define how many trades each player is allowed to do. Don't forget to hit the Set button to set the value.
  • The Clear Memory button will make the trade rule forget the trade history, allowing players to once again interact with the trade/trader anew.

Discount

The Discount rule allows you to give a percentage based discount to friends that you add to the discount list. Note that when applied to purchases, the discount rule will instead increase the payout price by the given percentage.

Sale

The Sale rule works similarly to the Discount rule, except that it gives a percentage based discount to all users for a limited period of time.

  • At the bottom time input, you define the period of time you want the sale to last.
  • Hit the start button to start the sale. While active, it will display the time remaining above the button, and you can end the sale early by hitting the stop button.
