This mod is part of 4NM - Total Gameplay Overhaul

You can no longer sell 1000 of your gold to a dumb merchant for 2000 of his gold. Now all the traders are insolent and will always offer a disadvantageous price. And you will have to literally knock it out to acceptable values, bargaining furiously.

First offer price

First offer price = base quantity of goods

Selling base = item price / odds → rounding down

Purchase base = product price odds → round up

The base cannot be lower than 1 gold.

Coefficient = k0 – k1/200 + k2/200. The coefficient cannotbe less than 1. 25.

k0= 1 + (1 or 0. 8 if the trade perk is taken for sale) or + (0. 7 or 0. 5 ifthe trade perk is taken for purchase)

k1(for player) =Trade Skill

+ Eloquence / (10 or 5 with the Eloquence perk)

+ Attractiveness / (10 or 5 with the Attractiveness perk)

+ Luck / 10 if Luck perk is taken

+ Rank (5 or 10 if the Speech perk is taken)

+ Reputation / 2 if Attractiveness perk is taken

Rank is the player's position in the merchant's guild (from0 to 10, and if there is no guild, then 0). For their big discounts.

k2(for a merchant)= Trade + Eloquence / 5 + Attractiveness / 5 + Luck / 10 + 150 - attitude towards the player (no higher than 100 or 150 if the Attractiveness perk is taken, creatures always have 50)

If the product has durability, then its price = Base price

50% + % durability / 2 / maximum price

That is, a completely broken item costs 50% of its base value.

Also fixed the cheat for getting infinite money from nothing, which was achieved using the price rounding error exploit.

Active barter

You can get a better price through active bidding. Maximumpossible profit = 10%

+10% if special trade perks are taken separately for sellingand buying

+ Attractiveness/20 but not more than 5 if Attractiveness perk is taken

In total, the maximum profit is 125% of the price of thefirst offer. Given that the most profitable first offer will be with a coefficient of 1. 25, ideally, with active trading, you will be able to sell and buy things at their cost. Thus, the exploit of getting infinite money from buying goods below their cost price and instantly selling them above their cost price has been fixed.

Success rate = 50%

1 (or 1. 1 with Trade perk) - Desired profit / Maximumpossible profit

Trader's attitude towards you / 100 (Attitude cannot behigher than 100 or 150 if the Attractiveness perk is taken, creatures always have 50)

* Player Skill Coefficient / (Trader Skill + 50)

Skill Coefficient = 20 + Trading Skill

+ Speech Skill / (5 or 2. 5 with Speech perk
