How to disable Sell?

[JJDulin]

Is there a way or a script alreration to disable the ability to sell in game?
or at least change the buy/sell ratio from 2/1 to something like.... 15/1?

Set the price of the items that can't be sold to 0.

That'll work for some purposes, but not others. If you want an item that can be bought and not sold, f'rinstance, or a whole bunch of them, it won't do you any good.

No, for this, you need to either not use shops in the normal way at all, or use a script to edit shop programming.

Like, changing line 309 in scene_shop from

$game_party.gain_gold(@number_window.number * (@item.price / 2))

to

$game_party.gain_gold(@number_window.number * (@item.price / 20))

for example.

Oh, and you'll probably also want to change 249 from

@number_window.set(@item, max, @item.price / 2)

to

@number_window.set(@item, max, @item.price / 20)

unless you want some very confused players...

Cool. It seemed a lot easier than disabling "Sell" would be-- just change a couple of numbers, instead of removing both an entire option and the space that it takes up in the window.

Yea, i was trying to alter the system to work in junction with a crafting system, where the materials can be bought at a high price (100+ an item), but i diddnt want them to be sold back at half price (im using a character unlocking system where it costs 2500 to unlock a character, and selling the materials would make it totally unfair). But thanks anyway!
