Issue with paying / change

Post by Tamryn » Mon Jun 03, 2013 11:47 pm

This hardly seems worth reporting, but I thought I'd mention it...

Code: Select all

> i
You are carrying:
     (3) 4 gold coins (superb)
     (4) 38 platinum coins (superb)
> train
Heartwarder Frederen says, 'I can train:
      Charisma                  for 4 platinum, 1 gold.
> train charisma
Heartwarder Frederen says to you 'Here is your change, 1 platinum'
You train to improve your charisma.
> i
You are carrying:
     (3) 3 gold coins (superb)
     (4) 34 platinum coins (superb)
As platinum is the highest value denomination, it never makes sense to get change in platinum. I'm not sure what's going on here, but as I had the exact money to pay in the first, I probably should have just done that and not got any change at all. As it is, the trainer seems to be taking 5pp + 1gp, then giving 1pp back? (The amount actually paid is correct.)

Heh heh! My first reaction is that the change code is so tricky to get just right and to test (believe me, I know!) that unless it is messing up the actual coin taken, leave this sleeping dog lie! (But other opinions are welcome, doubly so if someone wants to test it out thoroughly.)
