Storage Display Boxes just got real!

Check em out in your house! You can now set a selling price for the items in your SDB, and other people can buy from you. The SDBs will hold your currants for you, and you can collect it any time you wish.

If your reaction is "Well great, but only people who can enter my house can buy from me?!? What's up with that? Think, Tiny Speck! Think!" then we have another release coming in the next week or two that will put all your concerns to rest, and which may make you unnaturally excited.

(This functionality required us to change the click interactions on SDBs; whereas once they had a single click action to remove an item, they now always bring up a menu.)

  • Talking about vending machines just put one on our home street and we can put our items in there :O

    *just as a figure of speech, i bet its hard to put ideas to code

  • This sounds like a cool idea, and also with the comments from stoot about our own street tower in the other thread...this is going to be quite interesting indeed!  Loved the bar/restaurant idea, and the potential to display art, etc. Looking forward to all the next few weeks entail!  Thanks for more options to have more personal impact, even if it is in our imaginations vice Ur...but it is making for a more interesting interactive game...even for us less social players.

  • Is it going to be possible to use the SBDs to give stuff away, one per customer per game day for example?

  • Pascale, probably not. But your butler will have some capabilities in not too long.

  • Until we get towers, it would be nice if we could put the SDBs on note poles on our streets... it would be like walking through an open-air market!
    Posted 6 months ago by Festeus Subscriber! | Permalink
  • This is an intriguing development. Awaiting the next Two Weeks™.

  • You should add what pascale said! I want to be able to have a free giveaway sdb so that more people will visit my shop on the reg!

  • I have no idea what other features are coming up that will make this redundant, but I would love to be able to set a price of zero currants. Then I can let my keyholders help themselves to the contents of selected boxes :)

  • This is gonna be cool, player run shops are just one of the possibilities with where this is going.

  • A question: is the price on the SDB per item or for the whole box when there's like a trillion of the objects in them?
    Posted 6 months ago by KitkatCat Subscriber! | Permalink
  • ohhh awesome! great work TS!
    Posted 6 months ago by rosedragon Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'd like to be able to mark certain items as "0c".  I know who has keys to my house, and I trust them.  The items marked as 0's would allow me to keep the house clean and allow them to get resources if they need them for a project.  Possible?

    erm... per item

  • Personally I don't like the menu that comes up! I have enough problems taking items out of the storage box. I joyfully dislike the new system! LOL

  • Very exciting new development! Thanks so much for your continuing efforts to transform this already amazing game!

  • I get the sentiment behind providing certain items free for friends; however, recommend, in the interim for those that want things accessible for their friends, to just set the price at 1 currant.  I'm sure they could afford that cheap of a price for just about anything if they want additional resources.  Consider it a very minor convenience fee for them.

  • Game Components R Us? I want to go to there...
    Posted 6 months ago by CrashTestPilot Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Over time there's been a lot of comment in various threads about having items that are only available from vendors (such as honey and mushrooms) become makable or harvestable by glitchen. Is there currently any work towards this happening so we can sell them in our tower stores?
    Posted 6 months ago by Hawkwell Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Is there any chance we will get lower bid prices at the vendors? The existing inflated prices make it seem pointless for players to try and sell certain commodity items, e.g. meat.

  • oooh nice.   I may have to get a few more of those things now.   I was suspicious of them.

    So  the new release coming in the next few weeks - is it the trade channels that Stoot referred to?   When I read eric's post I imediately thought that the new release would be for creating new buildings on our street (a store like Uncle Friendly's - except with STBs on the empty wall)
    Posted 6 months ago by Treesa Subscriber! | Permalink
  • O MY GOD.
    Posted 6 months ago by Ameh.Loves.Fudge Subscriber! | Permalink
  • If that is the case I would like to make sure I don't restore any more resources on my street.  The street is fully expanded and full of projects so I wouldn't have space for a new building the day the option was released.

  • I would really like to be able to set batch amounts for sale: "just one," "a dozen," "a full stack" for purchase per customer per game day.
    Posted 6 months ago by Pascale Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Like that idea Pascale.  Would be good if we could moderate the purchase amounts so folks don't just buy up everything.  This would help us to be able to set bargain prices without worrying that someone will take everything for themselves.
    Posted 6 months ago by b3achy Subscriber! | Permalink
  • +a large number to what Pascale said and b3achy amplified upon. Yes! 
    Posted 6 months ago by Flowerry Pott Subscriber! | Permalink
  • For the absent-minded yet fussy among us, would there be a way to mark what was sold out of a particular box so we can fill it up with the same thing when it's empty? The boxes seem to remember the last price that was attached to them, so why not the item that was sold? :)

  • While this is cool, farmer's markets where these improvements could run would foster more interaction. Sadly lacking of late...

    "If your reaction is "Well great, but only people who can enter my house can buy from me?!? What's up with that? Think, Tiny Speck! Think!" then we have another release coming in the next week or two that will put all your concerns to rest, and which may make you unnaturally excited."

  • time to make more SDB
    Posted 5 months ago by Mad Coffee Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm definitely going to have to figure out what SDB style to pick that makes a giant 5x5 bank of them look like a 1940's Automat. Because AWESOME.
    Posted 5 months ago by devlogic Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Is there a thread where we can post information about our "stores?"  I'm guessing we should probably post in the marketplace forum, but I only see posts about cubimals in that forum.  I ask because I don't want to piss anyone off by posting in the wrong place...  Some people can be so touchy!  =P  

    All things herbal for sale at my house.  CHEAP!  :D
