Deprecated Darkstar fourms

Hi I am a bit new to lua and the DSP.

I am looking to remove or adjust the following restrictions on the auction house:
1.) 7 items to infinite
2.) 1 Week duration to infinite
3.) Tax

Any info would be helpful.

I have been looking at the following file:
auction_house.cpp

Thanks!

Look in: src\map\packets\auction_house.cpp

The slot limit is where you will see all the pieces of code like:
slot > 7
slot < 7

Duration for 1 week, I don't even think works. I don't recall us having expiring items yet as it was something whasf was supposed to finish after I coded part of what he needed. As far as I know its still not implemented so items should not expire if I recall.

Tax is calculated here:
WBUFL(data,(0x08)-4) = 0x00; // AUCTION_FEE(PItem->getCharPrice());

It is currently set to 0 as it was removed on retail.

Expiration is almost done, it'll be implemented in the search server (and configurable). Just having a bit of trouble with the SQL connections..

are you sure you're not thinking of bazaar tax

Thank you very much I figured it was just the '7's I was not sure if there was any issues with that or if anything else had to be changed! (and wow good response time appreciated!)

Retail AH tax was reduced majorly but it still exists.
Bazaar tax however was removed completely.

Ah I got them mixed up / reversed.

Hmm. Seems any value greater than 7 results in infinity slots, so we can't do something like just make it 10 by just tweaking that number. I suppose it doesn't mater much since the display part client side still won't show more than 7 and locks you out if your try to view sales status after having more than 7 items listed (till you re log out/in). Most folks wanting to change it will prolly prefer infinite anyway.

I got around to testing this and the client wont let me sell anything past 7 items :C Any ideas?

Edit: Would I need to use a @sell command or something?

I tested with it at 9, and it worked (and had inf slots). Note there are two spots in the code where its checking that number, and if you open sales menu status the client will enforce its own restriction.
