This is Living Economy 1.2.
Makes ALL payer transactions affect merchant's barter gold. A la Morrowind.
If a merchant also offers training, recharge, repair or spells. Any gold you spend there will be available for bartering.
In addition every business hour the merchant has a good chance to realize a transaction with someone else, so their barter gold will change accordingly. Barter gold will mainly fluctuate between a third of the base barter gold to double of it. Unless you lower/raise his barter gold a lot, then every hour he will change his barter gold a bit until he is within acceptable margins.
Makes for more realistic merchants, and less get rich quickly schemes.
The Merchant's Base Barter Gold is based on your character's AND the NPC's Mercantile skill. This means all NPCs will have fairly different amount of gold to barter with, even if they are the same "skill rank".
Fences will have roughly 50& to 70% of a merchant with their same skills, and the PC Merc skill only influences very slightly on their gold.
The BarterGold resets to Base every 3 days.
