Consignment merchant Direct Deposit

WHY?

Did anyone even ask for this? All it's apparently done is ghosted a ton of plat from people.

And after converting my home into a personal un-guild house now I have to log in specific characters to slowly withdraw the money since there isn't a withdraw all command. Had I known that y'all were gonna screw with the houses like this with no way to shut off the changes I never would have converted my home in the first place (which I had to do to unlock the property from my main, since the deed transfer mechanics did not work for me here)

If you're going to add crap like this into the game make it a toggle, so people can CHOOSE whether or not they want to take advantage of the feature.

Yeah, i really dislike that change. Looks like i'm missing a few platin as well. I can understand that the change is part of the try to clear the hz of inactive players, but the direct deposit is really bad.

The update on Friday included a bug where these kind of offline sales did not flag the balance as changed meaning if you were offline and someone bought something and you didn't in any other way get your balanced flagged as changed (for example by trading / buying / selling to merchant / getting drop gold etc.) until the next server restart the balance would not be saved, the update on Saturday fixed this issue.

If you are affected by this issue please get in touch with Uthred or Cooky in discord and the logs will be reviewed for your case.

As for the why of this change: Repossession doesn't handle copper, the change to not draw rent from consignment merchants would otherwise make it possible for houses to be repossessed with funds still in the merchant and there are upcoming changes that have to do with offline purchases / sales.

Well that's not true, still missing my 5p 750 golf from the item i sold yesterday. i was told to buy/sell something it would reset, nothing. Was told after restart nothing. Now i see that /accountbalance stuff which is cool, but it is only after restart, and all this was prior to last restart . looks like i am out 6p. I put a bug ticket in which is what I was told to do by Maharet. Do i also message Cooky or Uthred?

Well I have done this, and everything Uthred and Maharet have said would be the solution and no response. I can already see where this is headed, where it will be too long before a response and slowly forgotten. Everyone I have spoken to regarding missing money are not being responded to. Even have a screenshot, in which was told don't worry about sending it in the bug report. Guess I am out 6p.

If someone's house/porch/CM etc, which cost them several plat, are repossessed due to no longer playing the game you really think they're going to bust your balls because they got short changed a few copper by the repo guy if they ever come back to the game?


And for those of use who operate a guild house instead of a personal house... How about adding a /gc withdraw all command so I don't have to withdraw 1000000 coppers and get 10g per click. Or even better, let me revert my house back to personal so I don't have to jump through all these new hoops just to get my gold

That is a dumbest patch ever : why make things more complicated when you have already the solution on your door ?

Just ask the man who invented an other thousand command such as accountblance....

My solution : Just put a withdraw button money on reposition merchant.

But do not leave the only stuff that make me happy every morning : see the money i made the day before on my merchant. I can"t see that on account balance !

If you want to go on with that idea, please put a "/accountbalance withdraw manual" please !
