Just did a quick rewrite of all the town shopkeepers to both make the game more realistic and also make it so vendors don't run out of money permantely.

First off all shopkeepers have had their backpacks removed. This was mainly done to prevent new players from accidentially snooping.

Secondly shopkeepers now start with very little gold on hand to buy items with. Before they started with 90k. The problem was, once they spend all their money they wouldn't buy anything again until we restocked them. This made it so the more popular towns were useless when it came to buying or selling.

Now vendors carry a much lower maximum of gold, but restock the funds they use to purchase wares every hour or so. They actually watch the traffic they see in their shop and also how much they sell and base their restock funds off that. So if you want vendors to buy more from you, you must buy more from them and also frequent their shoppes more often. Remember the more customers they see the more their going to go out of their way to keep you happy.

I think this is a pretty killer AI upgrade and as always I will be balancing it and tweaking it in the future.

killer upgrade indeed wow

Sounds awesome!
