    Hello everyone! Happy Veterans day to those of us living in the United States. This Patch introduced the new and heavily suggested Black Market (or auction house) system! On top of that, we have also improved and updated the GTM Wiki and the GTM Web Map. Let's hop right into it!

    THE BLACK MARKET

    The Black Market is an offer-style auction system that allows players to list time-limited buy and sell offers for rare items.


    An NPC runs the Black Market and is located at spawn.
    - For Minesantos/Santkburg, the Black Market NPC is located in the alleyway between the Weapons and Armor Shop.
    - For NewMineport, when you spawn turn directly behind you and walk between the Police Station and Car buildings.

    The market runs as a whitelist and only specific items can be sold.

    If you have suggestions for items to be sold, please post them below.

    Here's the category and breakdown for each:

    Weapons: Minigun, Dildo, Katana, Gold Minigun, Flamethrower, Heavy Sniper, Sniper Rifle, Net Launcher, Grenade Launcher, Homing Launcher, Rocket Locket, Heavy Shotgun

    Armor: Titanium Helmet, Titanium Vest, Jetpack, Wingsuit, Spectacles, Samurai Air Jordans, Riot Shield

    Rares: Candy Cane, Clausinator, Santa Nice List, Santa Naughty List, Christmas Cake, Big Present, Christmas Outfit, Santa Outfit, Elf Outfit, Rudolf Outfit, Candy Bag, Roofied Chocolate, Easter Egg

    Weapon Skins: Any weapon skin item that you get from Skin Crates.

    Player Heads: Player heads that used to be sold to the Head Seller.

    Misc/Others: Casino Chips

    MY OFFERS MENU (BLACK MARKET)

    Players are able to create their own buy/sell offers in the My Offers menu. When an offer is serviced, either by a player or expired, the offer will be collectible right in the My Offers menu.

    This intricate system will allow players to obtain their offer items back, the money back, or a collection of both. If players do not have space, players will safely be able to collect a partial amount of the offer.

    For example:
    If Presidentx lists 50 miniguns for $5000 each, and only 5 of them are bought, he will receive $25000 for the miniguns in cash, and the other 45 miniguns when claiming his offer back from the My Offers Menu.

    By default, players
    will have two Black Market slots to put up offers. The players who have donator ranks will get increased Black Market slots as follows:
    -
    Premium: +1 slot
    -
    Elite: +2 slot
    -
    Sponsor: +3 slot
    -
    Supreme: +5 slots


    CATEGORIES (BLACK MARKET)

    Typical Auction House systems are a mess, but the GTM Black Market
    offers amazing sorting, filtering, and category options! When browsing the market, you will need to select a category to see the items within that category.

    AUCTION TAX (BLACK MARKET)

    The Black Market offers a
    unique money sink for GTM. Players can list items for a set duration of 8h/16h/24h and pay a tax to list their items. The tax rate for each is as follows:
    - 8 hours: $500 or 3%
    - 16 hours: $1000 or 5%
    - 24 hours: $1500 or 7%
    Note: The amount taxed is whatever is highest, and will be shown as "total tax" when creating offers.


    WEB MAP UPDATE

    The web map has been updated to match the most recent changes to the GTM map. On top of that, the following changes were made:
    • The ocean water was retextured to be more visually appealing
    • Reformatted warp popup to look better and add a new detail called "warp popularity" which just ranks how often players tend to go to the given warp
    [​IMG]
    • Fixed a fullscreen bug on google chrome
    • Changing "view angles" will no longer put you on the other side of the map and will keep you centered on the same coordinates
    • Made lots of internal changes that help future-proof the web map and make the web map much easier to update
    • Reworded some stuff in the top "info" tab to be more understandable
    • Updated warps/loot crate locations and names
    • Default zoom and min zoon readjusted
    • In general, several minor small and minor bug fixes
    [​IMG]


    GENERAL CHANGES

    - The
    Head Seller NPC has been removed and replaced by the Black Market NPC.
    - Upgraded the server jar which should provide extra overall stability for the server!
    - Players now have a -1% lower chance of decapping a player.
    - /Discord has been updated.


    WEAPONS CHANGES

    - Katanas now have a
    +1% higher chance of decapping a player.

    Yes - For clarification, the old "Decapitated heads" are permanently removed. The edits to head drops refers to regular heads.

    The update is definitely well-liked from what I have seen, and am glad that GTM finally has an Auction House type of way to sell items. Can't wait to see further updates and improvements that are just as good or even better than the Black Market.

    An inventory has 32 slots, ([9x4]-4, the phone, GPS, and BP/AmmoPouch). The most items one can sell at a time is 64 of one item (For example, You can’t put 100 of one item in at once). You would need to be able to access your BP to sell more than 32 of one item, and I'm not completely sure if you can do that. If you could access your BP, that’s the only way I see selling 64 (non-stacked) items being possible.

    No, some items cannot be sold due to them being Admin/Not real items. Kwons and Sams are not able to be sold along with some other items due to this.
    Technically it’s not wrong. The normal Minecraft inventory is 27 slots (9x3). It’s just that you can include your hot bar (extra 9) when taking the Black Market into consideration.
