Marketplace Messaging
« Topic Start: March 08, 2020, 07:32:34 PM »
Title

Add the ability to contact sellers/buyers at marketplace

Summary:

Anyone who can visit the marketplace can send a message to anyone who is buying or selling food currently within their range.

Details:

Somewhere on the table of market offers on marketplace screen add a button for sending a message. Potentially restricted to traders for an additional benefit to the class.

Alternatively, or additionally, this could be listed in messages.

b]Benefits[/b]:

  • Encourages communication.
  • Enables negotiations to begin through the marketplace. This negotiation could be for the buy/sell offer already on the marketplace or future trades.
  • Could be used as a class exclusive which adds to the reasons for being said class.

Possible Downsides/Exploits:

Could be seen as clutter on the table or message screen.

I'm not playing trader or bankers at this point, but I don't see why this shouldn't be approved.

Sounds like perfect reasoning for more interaction.

Cool idea that makes traders actually interact, good for both RP and from a mechanics point of view.

Shouldn't be clutter at all if you limit it to traders and such. Would allow for negotiation between realms, which is usually a whole process.
