Client option to auto-confirm player shop buy requests
Posted: 16 Feb 2015, 22:55
My idea with this would be an option in ManaPlus that would make it so that players can buy items sold by that character without the owner having to manually confirm it, thus improving trade by making player shops with the option enabled more available and convenient to use.
People wanting to sell stuff could leave the character connected while AFK or doing other stuff, and when a player would initiate a trade to buy something, they would have a limited time to confirm before the trade auto-cancels, like maybe a minute.
And after the buyer would confirm, there would be a check that the trade corresponds correctly to what would be sold by the shop, if so the seller would auto-confirm, otherwise auto-cancel, and after completing the trade, the seller would get a notification (like maybe a dialog box, message in the Trade tab, or a whisper message) of something like "[Character] bought [#] [Item] for [#] GP."
