Bug Chestshops not returning 40c

[Royfaren]

I have done this twice now. I broke my redstone shop once(today) and my gold shop once(2 months ago) and neither refunded me. Can this be looked into?

Intentionally changed/hotfixed.

 

[Royfaren]

So they cost 50c each and return 0 now?[DOUBLEPOST=1366734591,1366643356][/DOUBLEPOST]I'm confused here. Do merchants get refunded for chestshops anymore?

You said two weeks ago it is going to be fixed. So now it isn't?

Yea, probably can't fix it or something.

yeah, I had to re-price several shops last night and lost 300c from it.... kinda crappy =( I also had to reimburse warmachinexp for his gold shop creation 3 times since I made him move it. Thats ALOT of money

 

[Kainzo]

Well, there was some instances of abuse with the refund... I'm not 100% having any kind of refund is a good idea at this point.

Still not sure.

If you are going that route, Merchants should at least still get the refund. I feel like they are getting the shit end of the stick here. I still have 20 or so shops to destroy from when I was a merchant because they were not profitable. Now I am going to lose even more money destroying it.

How are shop refunds being abused? Its not like you can make money from it? you just get a portion of the original cost back....

As a trial, I put up a chest shop for each color of wool in my undercity so anyone who joins my town can have access to colored wool for decorating purposes etc... I accidentally made them all way too high and I lost 300+ coin resetting the dumb signs....

if we are unable to get a refund, we should at the very least have the ability to adjust the price on a shop without spending ANOTHER 50c to adjust the price. Thats just an insane way to go if you want people to be having chest shops and a marketplace....

That's my 2 cents worth.

There is a large exploit with it, but it's not something we're going to tell people how to do

 

[Kainzo]

Used to not get any refund at all from chestshops.. heh - we knew of one possible issue with it and we want to make sure its gone before re-enabling it.

Is there any way to add someone else to the chest shop so they can add / remove inventory for you ?

I hope something is in before the new TD is up. I just counted, and I have 40 chestshops to move into the TD. That's 1600c I will lose, and have to spend another 2000c.

If I may, maybe it'd be a good idea to lower the price of making shops. That way it won't hurt as much if you mess something up r have to move. :3

@Estilla this thread is 2.5 years old! Please don't reawaken dead issues. (Also this thread is a bug report. Head to hc.to/suggestions to make suggestions, please.)

The cost of making chestshops is quite moderate, and I understand you still get part of the cost refunded when you take the shop down. The cost is intended to encourage players to think carefully about chestshop placement and not just place them all over the place.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't see a post date anywhere, so I didn't know.
