Title: Barter: Display Sum?
Post by: Heimdall on May 16, 2017, 11:40:34 pm
Trade with Stygian Coins often ends in high tips.

Is it possible to display the sum of the items worth in the barter window?

That feature would be nice.



By the way: Great game!

Why not just use "auto" button to pay exactly as much as you need to?

On the risk of counting peanuts:
I always end up calculating the bargain myself, f.Ex. to buy exactly the ammo needed to get an even trade, instead of, say, giving them a half charon for nothing.
Sometimes, it's a bit annoying when there's rounding involved.
The auto-button would work great if we could mark things to be used as additional currency, like, say, ammo components.

Imho auto-balance, with the colored bar as only indicator, is not the optimal solution, if you want a fair trade with only 0 to 9 bucks loss. A rounding system would minimize the loss.

In Addition:

The traders are greedy cheaters.  ;D 
They are holding back charons and paying first with credits, just to make 10 or 20 bucks extra.
They are like: "Oh my, can't give u my super steel coin it's worth 30 and u've got only a value of 26 left, sorry. Too bad I'm all out of of SGS-Credits."

The red/green bar is pretty useless in transactions with items worth >10k. The slider seems to be balanced but the balance might still be several hundreds off. 



One alternative might be to give the traders unlimited (or at least 10 times more) money.
