Has there been any progress in updating the module to correctly handle decimals instead of floats or making the buy/sell work correctly with GP <> gp? I've began tinkering with the extension in an attempt to make it work for me, but it looks like a lot of work that someone may have already tackled. I was able to semi-successfully round the coin value and weight in the shop list, but the uppercase issue is eluding me because I do not know how to validate uppercase in XML.
Given that Dulux is just getting,got,will be getting out of the hospital this week. I suspect it may take him some time to status this.
Ah, I did not realize it was that serious or still ongoing. I hope he recovers fully.Quote:

I'm currently trying to find a way to change the font on the message boxes that pop up for selling confirmation because they are very difficult to read for me.
I'm a total rookie when it comes to lua and xml, but what I've done so far is edit xLocationsStrings.xml in the DOELocations files to strip away some of the text that ends up overlapping with the buy/sell text.Quote:

(Edit: this overlapping text is only a problem when using the 5E Wizard theme, of course.)
Would love to know your fix for that please ...Quote:

end
Add an Upper function:
function ToUpper(str)
return (str:gsub("%a", string.upper))
end
In function fpParseItemCost, change the return line to use round(sCost,0),ToUpper(sCoin)
In function fpGetPriceMarkup, change sPrice to have a round(,) around the nCost calculation
In function fpBulidingSellItems, add ToUpper around the oCoinSlot and Scoin references
IsLocationsPatch.lua
Add function round again
in function fpUpdateBuilding, call round around getValue
xBuildingsWindowClasses.xml
Add function round again
call round each time you see sItemWeightName).getValue()
I THINK that's all the changes I made. I know that's difficult to follow, but I'm not sure if I can share the file changes here without permission.
No, you can't :)Quote:

Hello all, Is there a way to copy or duplicate a shop with inventory? I'm trying the traditional dragging outside and then dropping the link back into the buildings section without success.
There's a "copy location" function built in to the extension - right click on the shop (or whatever) and then choose the appropriate selection from the radial menu.Quote:
