Imports:NPC Shopping Behavior

File:I cant afford that..jpg

Shopping is when an non-player character (NPC) goes around passively buying from various Shop Counters in the world. Every NPC that does this has an amount of Cats to spend on items, and a list of item types they are willing to buy. Resident NPCs do not receive any Cats beyond the initial amount given to them when they are first loaded into the game. This does eventually lead to NPCs not being able to afford any more items.

However, Wandering Trader NPCs that randomly spawn into regions such as Hiver Trader Caravans are not persistent and therefore can de-spawn and spawn again an unlimited amount of times, each time receiving their assigned amount of Cats for trading and buying from Shop Counters.

Shoppers

The NPCs in the game that go around and buy from Shop Counters, either player owned or AI owned. Some are residents of various towns, while others are wandering traders that roam the world trading with the outposts they stop at.

Trivia

There is a "wages" system that is supposed to grant NPCs a set additional amount of Cats daily. However this system is bugged and so only grants this amount of Cats to NPCs a single time when they are initially spawned. The "Min/Max Money" stats also appear to have no effect.
