AoR Personal Vendors


AoR Resources


AoR Personal Vendors are now available for those players who would like to become merchants, selling their AoR products for coins to other players.

The vendor is made up of four components:

[AoR] Personal Vendor box: you may use this simple box or, better yet, move the other three vendor components to another container more suited to the product you are selling

[AoR] Personal Vendor script: required to make the vendor magic happen, it cannot be changed by the merchant

.config notecard:  merchants should change this information to apply to their specific product

#Set the product name contained in this vendor.
ProductName = [AoR] Bread

#Set the product price.
ProductPrice = 50

#Message sent on touch
InfoMessage = Loaf of Whole Wheat Bread 8/8

#Notecard to give (Leave empty to not give any).
InfoCard = Product Information

#Owner IMs On/Off - Notify owner when someone purchased.
OwnerNotify = On

Product Information notecard (Optional): provides further information to customers

Load the vendor with multiple copies of the same product, bread for example, and start selling.  You will need a vendor for each product sold.  The merchant may touch the vendor for sales statistics.

Some thoughts about pricing.  You can ask Myriam (NPC Merchant)  for a Price List, i.e. items for sale with their Wholesale price.  This is a fair suggested price for merchants to use.

Myriam is intended to bridge any gaps where items may not be available from other players.  As such, her prices have been deliberately set low for the sale price and high for the purchase price.  Though the wholesale price is a good guide, merchants are always free to set their own purchase price.

AoR Beta Testing

ITEMS UPGRADE

  • Physical Items (loaf of bread, sack of flour, sack of wheat) can now be retrieved directly from your basket see HUD & Meter Update Notes v0.14
  • Physical Items can no longer be sold directly to Myriam (NPC Merchant).  Load them into your basket and sell them to Myriam from there

The new HUD & Meter will be sent to you automatically the next time you detach/attach HUD & Meter v0.13.  As usual, attach/detach/attach the new items to get them up to speed.

IMPORTANT:

Old physical items should all be loaded into your basket and new items retrieved from your basket as required.  

This is a relatively painless way to update these items. 

The old loaf of bread will stop delivering bread slices.  Load it into your basket and get a new one.

MYRIAM (NPC MERCHANT) UPGRADE:

Myriam has been upgraded!

Current functions:

BUY - Purchase items and have them transferred directly to your personal inventory.  Purchase Price is 110% of Wholesale Price.

SELL - Sell items directly from your personal inventory.  Sale Price is 90% of Wholesale Price

PRICE LIST - Lists items for sale with their associated Wholesale price.

Please note that you can no longer rez items (bread for example) and sell them directly to Myriam.  Instead, LOAD the item into your personal inventory and then use Myriam's SELL function.

To encourage roleplay, sales between players are preferred. Personal vendors will be available soon for those interested in becoming merchants.  For the moment you can transfer the contents of your personal inventory to another player and have them pay you directly.

Myriam is intended to bridge any gaps where items may not be available from other players.  As such, her prices have been deliberately set low for the sale price and high for the purchase price.  Though the wholesale price is a good guide, merchants are always free to set their own purchase price.

18th century Pack Baskets


Historical Research


The use of a personal AoR inventory has lead to the investigation of boxes, bags, backpacks, pouches, and chests.

Here's an interesting article displaying 18thc Pack Baskets.

Many thanks to Aldo & Sere for pointing me in this direction!

Sleeping Beauty Syndrome

Many of us have suffered from “Sleeping Beauty Syndrome” at one time or another.  No Health, no Energy, no Hunger, and no Prince(ss) in sight to save us.  Even though you are paralyzed with inaction here are the steps you can take to get yourself back on your feet:

  • Detach your [AoR] HUD & Meter.
  • Contact Tat who will wave her magic wand, restoring your lifeforce and returning you to consciousness.
  • When you get the go ahead, reattach your [AoR] HUD & Meter.
  • The Meter will show red for some time after being reattached but will green up within 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy your new lease on life!

Updated June 12, 2024 with Sleeping Beauty Syndrome.

The owner now has a choice of four security settings:

  • Public - everyone can get bread slices
  • Community - community members can get bread slices or load into their bag

Please note that loading bread into a bag should be used with caution as once loaded, bread cannot currently be retrieved. This functionality is planned.

FROM WHEAT TO BREAD

Grain fields are now in beta testing with the first crops scheduled to be harvested later today. 

  • Fields are assigned to specific workers by the field owner
  • Planting wheat requires 1 unit of wheat and 4 units of water, drawn from your bag.
  • Planting & harvesting time depends on your "grain farmer" skill level
  • One "grain farmer" skill point is earned for each successful harvest
  • Assigned worker can "sit" on the field (right click - farm) to begin planting/harvesting tasks
  • Rakes & scythes are provided automatically. Allowing attachment (optional) will place these tools in the worker's hand.
  • Worker/owner can "touch" field (or right click - manage) for field status
  • Animations are stopped automatically when the task is complete.  Should the worker choose to "stand" before that time the crop will be lost.
  • Time from planting to harvest is 48 hours.  The "✪✪✪" symbol will appear when the field is mature.
  • A successful harvest provides:
    • A sack of wheat (8 units) delivered to the worker
    • 8 units of wheat given to the owner's bag
    • 2 units of wheat given to the community manager's bag

Grain fields can also grow oats & barley for apprentice grain farmers (skill level 2) and above.

All grains will be used in cooking recipes. In addition, oats will be used as animal feed and barley will be used in the production of beer.

A separate corn field is planned.

New Well

A well is now available in the   QH Kitchen 

Look for the "✪✪✪" symbol on the sink.

The well gives 8 portions of water directly to your bag.  It also gives 1 unit of water to the well owner and 1 unit of water to the worker's community.  These taxes are transferred directly to the owner's/community manager's bag.

Gathering time is 30 seconds.

Cheers!

Tat
