Bankers will not exchange 1 electrum

Post by Trillarel » Thu Feb 23, 2012 4:01 pm

I have tried to exchange 1 electrum in 3 different banks. Every time, the banker drops it and tells me to give him exactly 1 coin. Other currencies exchange just fine. I'd have thought electrum is not supposed to be changed, if not for the fact the banker names it in his welcoming speech, so to say.

This should be fixed by tomorrow. Thanks for reporting it. I will post here when it is resolved.

I hate adding to the workload, but if you do make it so that banks exchange 1 electum, please remember to update help banks to reflect this. Currently 2 electrum can be exchanged for 10 silver, which is documented in helpfile but, as Trillarel pointed out, absent from bank tellers' dialogue (and actually implied to be "against the rules").

How do you read it as being against the rules?

Not against the rules, per se, I just meant that if you take the bank teller's dialogue literally (and haven't read help banks), there's no indication that it's at all possible.

The standard banker speech advertises breaking down one electrum coin into smaller change. I have updated all the bankers; I will update the help file and bring over all 21 updated bankers NLT tomorrow.

Exactly; that's what I meant in the first post...

This is updated now on the game port. All bankers should now exchange one electrum coin for five silver ones. They still will not break one copper coin.
