Component Buyer

From Details of Component Buying:

Setting the Component Buyer

On the screen listing a player's spell components, alongside the current number of components the player has, a red number will denote the amount of that component the player wishes to purchase. This number can be set from 0 to 999.

Filling the Component Buyer

To utilize their component buyer, players simply need to begin a transaction with an appropriate vendor and use any of the new @fillcomps commands:

• @fillcomps -- fills the buy list with all of the desired components.
• @fillcomps <component type> -- fills the buy list with all of the components of the given type.
• @fillcomps <pyreal value> -- fills the buy list with all of the components until the total price of the components exceeds the given value.
• @fillcomps <component type> <pyreal value> -- fills the buy list with all of the components of the given type until the total price of components exceeds the given value.

A Word of Caution

Please note: error messages will be received if the @fillcomps commands are used in the following incorrect ways:

• @fillcomps used while a vendor is not open will result in the message: “You need an open vendor.”
• The specified amount being reached will result in the message: “Buying aborted; max price reached.”
• The vendor not having enough of the given components will result in the message: “There was not enough: <comp name1>, <comp name2> . . .”
