Title: Npc with caps only
Post by: Hargitto on March 29, 2010, 08:58:19 am
like in topic. npcs often dont have caps when we need it, so why wouldnt you make store where you trade items only for caps?

Derp.

It would make more sense to have caravans actually carry caps. They let you trade but never have anything worth trading.


However, it's obvious, you would need to make them un-lootable, so that people who just kill caravans can't make thousands of caps that way.

Herp.

Instead, why not reduce the price of 0% deterioration equipment so people are actually prepared to buy it.

Imagine it! Leather jackets for $50. 10mm SMGS for $200. Shotguns for $40.

And then maybe traders will get their cash from, gasp, TRADING WITH PLAYERS.

Unless it's cash-only trade, then they will trade weak healing powder for the jacket.

Just make caravan have what a caravan might have, varying depending on its richness/how well guarded it is.

Be sure to kill the ones with radios immediately so they can't send message reducing your reputation, and allow no survivors to tell tales.

Being a caravan raider should get you some bad rep, if anyone finds out.

Also, Raiders might not like you on their turf.

Messing with caravans should also have an effect on the economy, the NPC-diven part. (If any.)
