Salem Economy, the now and the future.

As things stand right now, one could only hope for the ability of the player owned stalls to be able to buy stuff from other players automatically. It would work like the NPC stalls, but the owner of the stall must add silver to the stall equivalent of the total ammount of silver he is willing to pay for stuff. Would make trade blossom and great for newbies who need money in the beginning. On a side note they should increase the numbers of stalls drastically and cut the price of getting one. (Its 5k now, right?)

At this point I think that placing more stalls wouldn't help that much. I'm not against it, but I think it won't make much difference. The richest people are the ones with stalls. They would quickly buy out all the new stalls anyway.

Chaning price doesn't make a difference either. People who can afford 1 stall now would simply by 2 or more. I proposed some solution to this long time ago: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1381#p15384

Basically stalls don't belong to anyone and keeping all slots in all stalls filled to maintain monopoly would cost too much. Everyone has access to them if there's enough of them
