Ship Vendor 1.0.1

Ship Vendor is an NPC merchant that sells players whole ships, ready to sail, with every block, device, skin, and inventory item already in place, plus the parts to build their own. You build a ship by hand, save it with one command, and it shows up in the vendor's window right away. The player buys it from the NPC, gets a Boat Building System item, drops it next to water, and watches it open into an exact copy of your original, with the owner already authorized.

Everything is set up from inside the game. Place vendors at monuments where they keep their spot after a map wipe, run prices that move with demand, hand out discounts by permission, and let captains take the helm to raise the sails, drop the anchor, and steer a course.

 FAQ

Q:  Where can I see an example of a config?
A:    Config

Q:  Where can I edit the names in the plugin or add my own language?
A:  You can edit lang files that are located (for example) at "oxide/lang/en/ShipVendor.json" or "carbon/lang/en/ShipVendor.json".

Q:  Players get "The plugin does not work correctly, contact the administrator!" message. How to fix?
A:  This error occurs when the ImageLibrary plugin is not working properly. Solutions:

• Install the ImageLibrary plugin if it's not installed.
• Make sure ImageLibrary is loaded and running properly (check with o.plugins command).
• Restart the server after installing ImageLibrary.
• Check server console for ImageLibrary errors and fix them.

Q: I see black images with Rust logo or get error 429 when loading images. What should I do?
A: These issues occur when there are problems downloading images from the internet. The ShipVendor plugin sends images to ImageLibrary but is not responsible for the downloading process itself. Error 429 typically occurs due to rate limits imposed by image hosting services like Imgur (see HTTP 429 documentation for more details). The bundled ships use local images with the "TheMevent/" prefix, so set up the local images:

1. Set up the images:
   • Create folder "TheMevent" in "oxide/data" (or "carbon/data" for Carbon)
   • Download PluginsStorage (click "CODE" → "Download ZIP")
   • Extract the ZIP and copy all contents to the "TheMevent" folder
2. Reload the plugin:
   • Type o.reload ShipVendor (Oxide) or c.reload ShipVendor (Carbon)

Note: If you want to add your own custom images, place them in the "TheMevent" folder and reference them with the "TheMevent/" prefix. For example: "TheMevent/Icon1.png", "TheMevent/MyCustomIcon.jpg", etc.
