Marketplace 1.0.5

Price Mismatch with NPC Vending Machine Surge Pricing

I noticed that the recent update to NPC vending machines, where prices fluctuate based on demand, isn't currently reflected in the prices shown on the marketplace plugin. For instance, if the standard selling price of a jackhammer at the Outpost is 150 scrap, but due to a surge, the current price is 200 scrap, the marketplace plugin still displays the price as 150 scrap.

While this isn't a major issue since players can check the current price by opening the map, and given that it's the player vending machines that are most important when searching for prices (which don’t have surge pricing), it might not be necessary to update the plugin for this. However, it could be worth considering support for this feature in future updates.

I will add support for this with the next update
