2nd Frag/fert seller

The bandit dealers are the biggest funnel on the economy, its neccesary to keep people from creating huge fert farms. I think a second fert / metal seller would help with the line but not make it *easier* to sell large quantities of fert. 

if anyone has reiteration or a counterpoint, i love a discussion 😀

 

Adding a second vendor will increase the number of people using them. Like how adding a second lane to a highway increases traffic. Would also have to pair that with other nerfs to maintain the current balance. I don't disagree with the idea, as the lack of inventive balancing of the vendors by Facepunch left us with one of the absolute worst mechanics used to maintain balance. It takes you away from playing the game, it's hard on the mind but most importantly, your body. Carpal tunnel is no joke. So people who still participate will use an autoclicker macro which pisses most everyone else off (doubly so if it's on an alt, cough), or hurt themselves to farm virtual currency.

 

If a change like this was to be considered I'd suggest going a step further and make the transaction instant (sell a whole inventory at once), but an equivalent or even higher cooldown is also applied before you can use the vendor again. Still need to play with the numbers a bit to maintain balance. Huge clans and alts being allowed complicates things significantly but I'm certain this could work. I don't think there are any public plugins that do that yet, but it should be possible with oxide. They have many hooks for the vendors.
