Shops inventory reset

[pctech86]

When do shops reset their inventories and/or get more money? I have sold too many circuit blocks to the shops in my area and they wont accept any more. When does this reset so I can continue to sell??

I think you can edit it in the server CFG. Once every 30 IRL minutes is the stardard, I think

Has this been changed? Because it's been about 6 hours and they still wont buy it

The shops never reset just like that. When a carawan of the trading guild arrives at the shop, it'll restock. You can initiate that process manually by selecting the shop and using the admin command "/shop_restock".

Also, if the shop reaches 50k of an item, it won't buy any more.

So if I use the restock shop command will it remove the 50k of one item that I have sold to it so I can sell more? Or does it only replenish depleted stock?

It does both, IIRC.

/shop_restock goes up to 50k and stops. I made a suggestion once that the shop should gradually fall back down to some middle number (for instance, in this case, drop to 25k before continuing back up, and trying to maintain an equilibrium around the half-way point.)

So is there any way to get the item to lose that stock so i can continue selling stuff to them? Ship_restock does nothing with removing the items, only replenishing depleted ones. I cant find it anywhere

Try using the "/shop_infinite" command twice on the shop. The first instance of the command will set infinite items. The second should turn off infinite items, so I'm wondering if that might reset the shop's stock. I wasn't able to find a list of admin commands on the wiki. Does anyone know if it's there?

To whom it may concern: Please add admin commands to the official wiki. if they aren't already there.

Just an update...I tried using /shop_infinite twice, and there were no change to maxed out stock level items whatsoever I also heard that the stock levels are hardcoded so there is absolutely no way to change them in the config file. So basically, at this point I'm assuming that the only way to get stuff out of the shop is for you to buy it is that correct?
