[WARNING] Vendor Credits

[Riitoken]

I can confirm that using a console command (just once) to bump the credits of a vendor, is enough to gank the achievements progress.

Was it worth it? Yes.

The net result is that I can sell all I have immediately rather than do the homeless person sleep-on-a-bench thing dozens of times.

There is a mod that can fix that...

Nice. Name that mod.

What is the console command? Using mod to boost merchant creds but still not enough. Would like the merchants to have 100k or more especially Trade Authority should have deep pockets.

IMO apart from Trade Authority - who kind of make it their business to both buy and sell - it's actually weird that all shops will just buy your second-hand loot in the first place, but I guess they have to since the TA (or something similar) doesn't have enough cash to act as a proper "fence".

And so far I rarely bother sleeping/waiting on a bench, I'd rather just sell what I can to whatever shops are around, then go and do something else or head to another location and sell more stuff there. It's ironically faster to travel somewhere else than it is to wait on a bench for 24 hours.

ROFLMAO at people lying on benches or sleeping. Every major city (AC less so than Neon and NA) has plenty of vendors present. Sounds like you just want to sell everything at once to one vendor. At some point, money becomes meaningless, and that's kind of the point. As it always has been in FO and TES. Stop picking up everything.

Even then.... On an NG+ run, I had well over 200K credits before I even made it to the lodge....

It should be even easier and quicker after a NG+ run to get it back versus the first time you played. You know where to go, can have several skills already. I did my first NG+ run at level 58. Was not hard to get credits built back up. Or took a long time. You get several thousand from just going to the Lodge and talking to Sara. :p

Ok so you want to be standing in front of the vendor with the callout circle title box showing the identity of the NPC.

Press the ` (backtic) for console
Use the mouse and click inside the callout circle marker
Confirm that the console selected object ID names the vendor
(if not then you need to click again and/or change your position in the world)
Once the console shows the selected object is the vendor then do this command

additem f 100000

That will bump the vendor by 100k.

For what? You already have better armor and a better ship. With bonuses, any weapon you're using is already OP. Curious how you think money becomes meaningful again? And, fwiw, this is a standard theme throughout BGS universes. I don't think it's unpurposeful. I literally believe they are making a statement that money is meaningless. I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions as to what they see as meaningful.

When you boil down the net effect of the vendor 5k cap, it is literally an intent to consume player time and nothing more. At a minimum, the trade authority should have a near endless supply of wealth.

Bethesda failed an opportunity to add character to the vendors by tweaking their available funds. I've got no problem with a backwater vendor sitting on only 5k. I've a huge problem with the primary commercial consortium having only 5k.

Bethesda could have had the vendors grow cash over time up to some very large cap. Then I could just visit Bessell III-b and sleep 24 hours and grow world cash by 1.2 bagloads.

That would have been fun.

Sitting on a fake bench and pretend sleeping just to cycle vendor cash is an egregious design flaw in every way.

There is supposedly a hidden merchant at a Civilain Outpost on Venus, which has only a 1 hr reset for her credit and items. If you can find her. Lol. I tried and never did.
