Random stock for traders

[Danimal696]

Would it be possible to declare a range of goods to be randomly shown at a traders shop?. Something like declaring:
random_item(100 - 200):1 (1 item randomly picked between 100 to 200)

Have you tried using the random_stock and random_stock_count properties? They let you use a loot table as the source of items sold by a vendor. For example, Abasi in the Empyrean campaign has the following:

random_stock=loot/trader_abasi.txt
random_stock_count=10,12

### loot/trader_abasi.txt

loot=10,100

# normal misc

No, i didn´t know of that command. Thanks for the answer, this will really spice up the seller.

[Danimal696]

Another one. Can i set an individual seller price higher? I know you can scale potion prices by level and global prices by "vendor_ratio". Can it be done for just a single elite items seller? So he sells rare or unique items randomly selected but at 300% - 500% normal price.

[dorkster]

Not at the moment, but I think a per-vendor setting for price scaling is a good idea.

[Danimal696]

Following on this question, can "status_stock" affect "random_stock"? So random items of a certain range appear only if a status has been set.

[dorkster]

Not at the moment. I think a good solution to this would be to add support for checking status to loot tables. We use EventComponent there as a way to store item ID/quantity/chance, and the status field is currently unused in that context.

Pity, it would be a nice addition having the trader expands his wares with higer qualities random items as story progress.
