Buy-Only and Sell-Only Shops

[Guest RPG Advocate]

Introduction

This script lets you call shops that only allow buying or selling. The default shop type is a normal shop that allows both buying and selling.

 

The Script

Buy_Only_and_Sell_Only_Shops.zip

 

Instructions

To get a shop that only allows buying or selling, you need to directly change the value of the variable $game_temp.shop_type using the "Script" event command. Valid values are 0 for a normal shop, 1 for a buy-only shop, and 2 for a sell-only shop. $game_temp.shop_type will automatically be changed back to 0 once the shop is cancelled.

When I open the file it says "failed to load actor data". How to I get to the script?

Unfortunately this script was re-posted by Marked to retain our script uploads (or something) and I am not sure you are going to be able to get a response from the original author.

 

So let me try to help:

 

Step 1: Put this script above "main"

  boasos_init
  @shop_type = 0
end
end

def initialize
  super(0, 64, 480, 64)
  self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
  @item_max = 3
  @column_max = 3
  @commands = ["Buy", "Sell", "Exit"]
  self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
  self.contents.font.size = 24
  refresh
  self.index = 0
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Refresh

def refresh
  self.contents.clear
  if $game_temp.shop_type == 0
    for i in 0...@item_max
    draw_item(i)
    end
  end
  if $game_temp.shop_type == 1
    self.contents.draw_text(4, 0, 324, 32, "You can only buy at this shop.")
    self.index = -1
    update_cursor_rect
  end
  if $game_temp.shop_type == 2
    self.contents.draw_text(4, 0, 324, 32, "You can only sell at this shop.")
    self.index = -1
    update_cursor_rect
  end
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Draw Item
#     index : item number
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def draw_item(index)
  x = 4 + index * 160
  self.contents.draw_text(x, 0, 128, 32, @commands[index])
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Cursor Rectangle Update
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def update_cursor_rect
  if $game_temp.shop_type == 0
    super
  end
  if $game_temp.shop_type == 1 || $game_temp.shop_type == 2
    self.cursor_rect.empty
  end
end
end

 

 

Step 2:

 

Before you call the "Shop Processing" event command, you need to use a call script to set the shop type.

 

For buy only, make your call script like this:

$game_temp.shop_type = 1

 

For sell only, make your call script like this:

$game_temp.shop_type = 2

 

Once the shop has completed, it will return to the normal shop. So, the next call to Shop Processing, if $game_temp.shop_type has not been set, will be a normal shop.

 

Hope this helps.
