Merchant Archive

Posted this in the main forum to no avail. I'll try here and see if I can get some love...

With all due respect to CSRPatrickM many of us retailers/merchants were not using Packs to store items on vendors. We were placing items in packs and selling them as bulk purchases. Since there is now way to do a discount bulk purchase or to allow a specific individual to purchase an item off a vendor this was the only work-around available. Since this bug, and yes I'm calling it a bug, has crept in, I have no way of taking orders and delivering merchandise to customers except for person-to-person delivery. This is all fine if you have 1 order for a Harvester or a Factory, but try having 10 orders for 10 crates of StimPacks.

Now, that being said, since this bug only seems to affect a certain few of us,I have little hope that this issue will rise to the top of the urgency list and be attended to. My business has essentually been gated for the time being.

Before the banter ends I would just like to state that this was not an issue two weeks ago and the code exists to right this problem. This is also an open call to other Merchants to post here who were also using the pack technique to sell their wares.

Thanks

The Empty pack issue is just another "server's playing catchup" type bug. If you retrieve a pack from a vendor that was full, but now appears empty, all you need to do is drop the pack in your house for a day. At the next server reset, all items should re-appear in pack.

This is how it has worked 100% for me with this issue.

I'm still really cheezed about buying things from a vendor, only to cross a server line and have it suddenly dissapear for a day. I know it always comes back...but if I go buy a harvester, I mean to place that harvester after I purchase it...not tomorrow, not next week.
