aggregation of trades at same price.

I'm not sure if it is being exploited but it would be best to fix it either way.

One can submit a trade on the market and then submit another trade for the full amount they have in stock. When the numbers are combined they are then posting more that the user has currently. There should be a bit of code here that queries that full amount that the user has of that resource and makes that the final amount.

 

ie 

 

you have 20 coal

 

Trade offer A

 

5 coal for $200

 

Trade offer B

 

20 coal for $200

 

Then:

 

the aggregated market offer becomes 25 for $200 instead of 20 for $200 like it should be.

Good catch, I'll fix it, although you can't accept any offer for more than the player has on hand at the time anyway. (No way to exploit it)

also,I can still create offers at multiple price ranges i.e.:

 

I have 300 steel

 

create 1 offer for 300 steel @$1500

create 2nd offer for 300 steel @ $1501

 

this allows someone to spam the market with bogus offers,even if they only are able to really sell the 300 it will create an unfair visibility for that person spamming offers until that 300 is sold.

If only Sheepy implemented my idea, it would only be 10-11 new variables  :P

TheNG - My favorite part is when Steve suggests DEIC might have done something remotely successful, then gets massively shit on for proposing such a stupid idea.
