Hello and welcome to Vetropolis' premier shopping district. In this thread you will find detailed information on the free-standing shops in Vetropolis including but not limited to obtaining a shop, as well as existing shop navigation. While there are no formal shop restrictions in place, please keep in mind that all shop owners are encouraged to specialize in one or a line of items. This helps keep things organized, as well as ensures players don't have to spend hours navigating a shops stock.

Cost:

There is a one time fee of 5,000.00 shillings plus the default 500.00 shillings LocalShops charges to create a shop.

Application Process:

To apply for a free-standing shop plot in Vetropolis, simply leave a post here requesting a purchase. Please ensure you've sufficient funds in your bank, and are wholeheartedly interested in keeping your shop well stocked. After the sale has been approved Veterans will have one week to complete construction and set up of their shop, after which point any shops who fail to do so will be repossessed without refund.

Maintenence:

While shops are encouraged to specialize in one line of items, the most important part of having a free-standing shop is to ensure it's well stocked. If a staff member finds an unstocked shop they may decide to give the owner a one week eviction notice to add inventory. In addition, as these shops are on Government owned land please be advised that any shop that does not maintain positive curb appeal may be required to redesign their exterior.

Shop Commands:

Reveal the spoiler below to see a guide to the shop commands.

[required] <optional>

  • /shop
    • Displays a list of player commands
  • /shop select
    • Select a cuboid area for a shop to occupy. Used in conjunction with both the createand move commands. Using the select command a second time will cancel the selection process.
  • /shop create [shop name]
    • Creates a shop of the default sized (specified in the configuration file) at your location.
    • If used after the select command - assuming the player didn’t cancel the selection process, possess enough money to create a shop (also specified in the configuration file) and the selection is smaller than the maximum allowed area (again, specified in the configuration file) - a shop will be created that fills the specified area.
    • Remember, shops are created in a 3D space - selecting two blocks on the floor will likely result in the creation of a shop that is a single block tall, which isn’t particularly useful to anyone.
    • Any characters may be used for a shop name, including spaces and punctuation.
  • /shop info <id>
    • Used while standing in a shop, this command will return information about that specific shop. If a shop ID is added to the end, it will return information about another shop without the player needing to be physically in it.
    • Use either this command or list to get shop IDs.
  • /shop browse <buy|sell>
    • Shows a list of items currently in the shop and if provided either buy or sell as an argument it will only show those for to buy or sell (from the players perspective).
  • /shop find [item name|id]
    • Finds nearby shops that either buy or sell the item sorted by distance with the cost per item.
  • /shop list
    • Lists all shops in the current world that the player owns, along with their unique IDs and names.
  • /shop move [id]
    • Moves the specified shop to a new location. The select command can be used prior to this command, allowing the shop to be moved to a new cuboid specified by the player.
    • Both list and info will return shop IDs, in addition to other information.
  • /shop destroy
    • Destroys the shop the player is currently standing inside. The owner of the shop will receive anything that was left in stock, inventory space permitting.
  • /shop add <item name>
    • Used without an item name on the end, adds the stack of items that the player is currently holding.
    • If an item name is specified, that item will be added to the shop, with a stock of 0.
  • /shop remove <item name>
    • Used without an item name, removes the item that the player is currently holding from the shop, and returns all remaining stock to the owner.
    • If an item name is specified, it works in the same way, but for the specified item instead of the held item.
    • In order to remove a certain amount of items from a shop (and not stop the shop from stocking the item), the player must use the buy command. Owners and managers of a shop are not charged for removing items in this manner.
  • /shop buy [item name] <amount> or /buy [item name] <amount>
  • Purchases a specified item from a shop. If the player uses ‘all’ in place of an amount, the shop will attempt to fill the player’s inventory with the specified item, money (and item stock) permitting.
  • /shop sell <item name> <amount> or /sell <item name> <amount>
    • Used without an item name and amount defined, sells the stack of items the player is currently holding.
    • With an item name defined, a specific item (a single item) is sold to the shop. If the player uses ‘all’ in place of an amount, all instances of that item in his inventory will be sold.
  • /shop set
  • Help page - displays a list of set commands.
  • /shop set buy [item name] [price]
    • Used to set the price and bundle size of items that the shop will be able to buy or purchased from customers.
    • Both this command and the set sell command below are set from the perspective of the shop, not the customer; in contrast the buy and sell commands are always from the perspective of the customer.
  • /shop set sell [item name] [price]
    • Sets the price and bundle size of items that can be sold to the customer.
  • /shop set manager +/-[player name]
    • ex: /shop set manager -cerealk +Mineral
    • Adds or removes managers from the player’s shop. A manage is able to add/remove items, set prices and set maximum amounts. He cannot move the shop, destroy the shop, nor add/remove managers.
  • /shop set minbalance [amount]
    • Sets a shops minimum balance that must remain in the account at all times. Helps prevent players from selling to a shop and completely bankrupting the owner.
  • /shop set max [item name] [max amount]
    • Used to set a maximum stock limit for a specified item. Note that the owner of the shop will still be able to add items above the maximum stock level, but the shop will not buy items from players if the current stock level is higher than the maximum specified amount.
  • /shop set notification
    • Toggles if the shop owner is to receive periodic transaction notifications via chat.
  • /shop set owner [player name]
    • Changes the shop owner to another player.
  • /shop set unlimited money
    • Sets the shop to have unlimited money - useful for a server shop buying items from players. The money from items sold to the shop while this is toggled on will go to whoever is set as the shop owner. If the owner is set to a player that doesn’t exist (ServerBank, for example) the creator of the shop won’t get the money from item sales.
  • /shop set unlimited stock
    • Sets a shop to have an unlimited amount of all stocked items - keep in mind that items still need to be added to the shop for them to appear in the shop’s inventory.

I've had my eye on Shop 11 for a while. I currently have a shop set up in Figlonia, specializing in farm goods, and byproducts of things that could be gotten on a farm.

 

See my thread for Spudman's Grocery for a detailed list, but I would be interested in possibly moving it to Vetropolis to get increased exposure and traffic.

 

Let me know if it is still available.

Idapotato,

You have been set up with unit number eleven. Please ensure your shop is built and well stocked no later then October 8th, 2012. Once you are all set up please post here with a general description of your shop. The 5,000.00 shilling fee should be deducted from your account as soon as is possible.

Happy commerce!

Anthony Hughes

Excellent. Sorry, noobish question incoming. Can I set permissions in that area so I can have people help with the build if I want?

 

Also, I could have swore the topic said 3000 shills earlier, but I just came off working a double, so I could have mis-read. No matter. Capitalism Ho!

 

Also the general description if you want to add it to the list above will be:

 

11: Spudman's Grocery

Owner: idapotato

Description: Farm shop, Food and byproducts made from anything that can be grown on a farm. (except for wool)

 

I will be moving my shop from figlonia, so I assume the stock will move over also?

To answer the shillings question, yes, it did say 3,000 earlier. I believe that he edited it though since it was supposed to be 5,000. Kiss

I'll give you Admin for the area so you can hand other players permissions.

It did. I am sorry, it was a typo. I had hoped no one would notice.

Yes, so long as you use the correct command. I should be able to help you, if you run into trouble.

4, 14 and 24 (since the owner of 24 has been permabanned for the 2nd time, no appeal) should be available.

 

Emulated can confirm. What kind of shop are you going to open?

I would like 14 s,il te pleit

As for what kind of shop, I was thinking of a kind of in game Pherian. My shop would sell maps, compasses, and other informative items, while I also sell the service of going to a location and filling up a map of a location, with the frames coming out soon, I though this would make for a useful servace

Aidenman777,

Your shop has been set up in unit twenty-four. You're to the left of WoolMart, and your shop is marked with a sign. The 5,000.00 shilling fee will be deducted from your account as soon as possible. Please ensure your shop is built and well stocked within the next couple of days.
