Player shop and shop spots

Shop spot blocks live inside finished building plots. They let NPCs and players sell items in the world instead of only through dialogue menus.

NPC shops

Villager shops — Vex's general store, the Florist, Pyrotechnic, Crystal Keeper, and others — restock at dawn from loot tables. Each shop spot shows a floating item display, and the way the shop spot faces turns the display.

• F (use) — open the buy panel with quantity controls (±1, ±10, max).
• Look-at HUD — shows item name, price, and stock while you aim at a stocked spot.

Vex now runs a general store selling furniture, blocks, and consumables through shop spots in his market stall and related buildings.

Your own shop

Assign a civilian with Commerce through the shop's town records shelf. They must be employed, paid and attending the counter during daylight for visiting villagers and tourists to buy. Higher Commerce skill improves the chance of a purchase. Guard duty takes priority over shop work. Shop work pauses when no town member is in this world, alongside wages.

After Vex's market stall is built, Vex offers Your Own Shop:

1. Take the player shop plot token from Vex.
2. Stake and build the player shop prefab.
3. Find Vex and close the quest in dialogue.

The player shop includes shop spot blocks and a shop safe that holds gold from your sales.

Listing items

• Use a shop spot while holding an item: list it for sale (player-controlled spots only).
• Use it again on your own listing: remove it from the spot.

Buyers use stocked spots to purchase. You receive a notification when someone buys your listing, and gold collects in the shop safe.

Who shops

Villagers and tourists browse player shop spots and buy listed items when they visit town. Price and stock matter — empty spots are skipped.

Permissions

Town members need permission to sell on player shop spots. The town owner can adjust member permissions from the town records shelf.

See Plot tokens under Mechanics for crafting plot tokens at the plot crafting bench.
