📋 About This Mod
Trading UnCapped
Traders unite! this mod will remove the client-side 5000 cap trading limit. This cap is not enforced on the server side so IT DOES WORK! - also no reason why it needed to be there. Currently valuable items are worth far more than 5000 caps and to buy these it usually requires a level of trust, or giving free caps first over multiple trades - there has been scamming using that method. Also the value of caps have been degrading due to this 5k limit, well no more!
Note:
You don't need this mod to buy someones items above 5k - only to list something yourself!MAKE CAPS GREAT AGAIN
