TL;DR: an actually edible pie as a gear.
(I’m using Microsoft word, it‘s why I‘m using capital letters correctly. DANG AUTO CORRECT.)
SURPRISE! *confetti comes everywhere* if you paid attention to a certain wall, you will already now that I promised a surprise today! And TADA! >:3
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, cats and dogs and everyone else!
WELCOME, to me 6th edition of the haggle offering trade system, or HOTS for short!
Yes, using awesome ideas, millions of days to think of and thousands of supports, HOTS is undisputedly the most advanced trade system. I can’t tell you how much I have had to see boring, unexplained, mundane trade systems. Well, this edition, 5.0 (3.8 was one) will show you the greatest trade system you will ever see. And this one is REALLY better than ever before, HOTS fans.
But, let’s hear two supports from some people who can require the most epic ideas to get a support off them in the previous versions and the title idea. I’m emphasizing this is awesome.
‘a wonderful idea. Would work well with the TC’
-Darthbob48, HOTS 3.0.
‘ah, I see.’
-Beepboopbop, HOTS 4.0. He pointed out a flaw and I extracted a part of it that countered it. So I count as a support.
Title idea:
an actually edible pie as a gear.
Those other pies are thrown at peeps, not ate. Such a waste! >:O
Price: 150 R$
Now to the ACTUAL idea itself.
In the catalog, there is a little section called ‘trade items!’
This little area is where the idea unfolds.
Click the section and you will be taken to a trading screen.
On the trading screen, there are four tabs. Use these tabs to access stuff. They are :
CHAT: chat with people. You can report the last 100 chat posts. By clicking at the chat bar. Found at the left side of the screen.
TRADE: trade with people. We will get back to this later. On the left side.
CREATE: self explanatory. sort of. Found at the bottom middle. We’ll get back to this later.
QUIT: quit the trading stuff. Found at the top right. Make sure you add an are you sure thing roblox.
Click a tab and it the stuff relative to it will open or close.
Here’s what happens before and after you click a tab.
CHAT (before opening) bottom left.
CHAT (after opening) entire left screen, leaving space for the SYSTEM button.
TRADE (before opening) middle-right.
TRADE (after opening) entire right screen, leaving space for the CREATE and QUIT button.
CREATE (before opening) bottom middle.
CREATE (after opening) entire screen. Other actions are not performable until you close the tab.
QUIT (before opening) bottom right.
QUIT (after opening) entire screen. Other actions are not performable until you close the tab.
Right, time for more detail onto the trading itself!
There are three different ways to trade. Click one of the tabs inside the trade tab to pick them, and they are self explanatory. You can only have one open at a time. Here are the ways:
Open trade.
Auction.
Private trade.
You want more detail, don’t you? Prepare for a massive word wall.
OPEN TRADE
In the open trade tab, there us a scroll bar and all the trades in the server. Looking for a particular item or person? Search it at the top of the tabs!
Click a tab and join the trade. Now. Here is where it gets complex. And I’m not a good explainer.
Up to 8 people can join a single trade! They have to offer (an) item(s) to the host. They can also ask for different items from the host.
If the item is off sale, limited or BC only, NBC members cannot be allowed to be offered or offer those items. Don’t ask why. It’s just logical.
More on how open trading works will be shown in CREATE.
AUCTION
The same as open trade, but instead you money in this mode, NBCers can bid on any item but BC only. You have 24 hours. Wait, how can you wait 24 hours you ask? Off to CREATE you go!
PRIVATE TRADE
Private trading. You must be sent an invite from a person’s profile to be allowed into a trade. possible BC only, to prevent a special scam.
Now, I know that by now the surprise is not really a surprise. You are plotting against me, going to quote that scamming will occur. ORLYNAO?
This next sentence changes that!
If the difference of item price is over 100 tix, converted if robux is there, peeps cannot trade.
hmph. nooby assumption owned.
anyway, let’s move on to CREATE.
create is a button. it allows you to create trades.
it’s done in many pages.
(page three! yay!)
PAGE ONE: the type of trade. set your trade.
PAGE TWO: what item you want to have. browses the catalog. allowed to pick more than one item.
PAGE THREE: what item you’ll give. browses your stuff. allowed to pick more than one item.
PAGE FOUR: creation complete!
you can only have one trade at a time. the create button turns into SYSTEM.
so, i promised more on how trading works in this. TADA!
-VERY BASIC TRADING EXAMPLE-
right... idk prices, so just imagine everything costs the same amount of tix.
virtualdarks is the host. he wants a staff of ice, and will give the fire shogun hat for it. it's an open trade.
watevs44 quickly joins that trade. he does not have a staff of ice and instead, offers a ice hammer AND 20 tix.
IfourmerI also joins the trade. he offers a staff of ice, but notices that virtual has a noob attack hat. he wants that hat, so he puts it on his want list.
dadomahho joins the trade as well. he’ll give 1000 tix for the item.
virtual goes onto SYSTEM!
he sees the items each trades, and likes IfourmerI’s trade the most. so he uses CANCEL on dadomahho’s and watev’s post. he then LOCKs the trade. no one can join.
however, virtual isn’t exactly satisfied with IfourmerI’s offer. which is why virtual haggles! the Scottish little CENSORED. joke.
he asks for 100 tix.
IfourmerI is happy and clicks accept. the items are traded.
when you are in any trade the CREATE button turns into SYSTEM!
in system, you can do many things to change trades.
if you are the host, these are your tools of infinite tradeingness:
HAGGLE: haggle. like a hag.
CANCEL: basically the trading equivalent of exile.
LOCK: prevents joining.
UNLOCK: allows joining.
ACCEPT: accept a trade.
SAVE: prevents someone from being cancelled by mistake.
UNSAVE: prevents someone from not being cancelled by mistake.
if you are a trader, you only have haggle and cancel. cancel only works on yourself.
one last thing: I LIEK PIE! and you don’t need to be in the trade system for the trade to be active. you can be doing other stuff, but the computer informs you when someone’s joined.
and that’s 5.0, fully rapped up! if you have any enquiries, send them to me please. any flaws? please post them, and I’ll try to correct them. remember, this is a remake of the best idea I’ve ever made, so if this isn’t awesome, nothing is.
FOUR PAGES! Lol. anyway, the post button is below. and report abuse, but what’s wrong with it? >:O. |
