A furniture item that holds extra furniture
 
Ok, I have too much furniture. And I'm running out of places to put my spare furniture (and there's a lot of it). I know you can technically hold an unlimited amount of furniture in your inventory, but then you can't purchase new furniture (which I am often doing).

What I'm thinking of is some kind of closet furniture item that can be used to store furniture. You could either drag and drop furniture into it, or perhaps another option would appear when you select something in your furniture inventory (assuming you're in a room containing said closet). Like an "add to closet" option. And when you interact with the closet, it pulls up a list of furniture stored within, which you can put back into your inventory at any time.

As far as how much furniture this thing can hold, I'm thinking the max amount of furniture you're able to hold in your inventory before you get the "you already have too much furniture" message when attempting to purchase a furniture item. As far as limitations, I'm thinking one per room, or possibly one per house. As for price, it shouldn't be cheap, but if it's too expensive, no one would bother. Maybe in the 4-8k range.

There's also a much simpler option. Add an NPC or something to one of the furniture stores that allows you to purchase more room in your inventory for a certain amount of gralats (kind of like how you can purchase additional character slots for 1k each).

I bet you could pull it off, Dusty.

I don't doubt I could do it... I doubt I could do so and feel confident in the integrity of my code considering it would be handling a lot of furniture that equates to a lot of gralats.

Just thought I would throw out there that this item exists in Delteria houses and is in fact a starting chest everyone gets when they buy a house.

Yes please! I've had furniture disappear because apparently I had "too much".

Ok, then what about the idea of paying gralats for more furniture inventory space? Surely this would be easy, given that you already can basically hold an unlimited amount of furniture. All you would need to do is increase the threshold of furniture you're allowed to carry before you hit the amount in which you can't purchase anymore.

A cap was placed on this (~600-650ish) to prevent furniture from going *poof*, now it springs back into inventory.

And if a storage item were coded, I bet the items that you put in it would count toward that limit, so it wouldnt help you. Unless it were coded as basically a 2nd hidden inventory. All hypothetical.

Ya that sucks, it took me a while before I was able to sell all of these items.

I like the idea of finding a solution for this inconvenience.

After testing it of course,

Would it be possible to make a server back up and if problems happen immediately back up players furniture?

Server back ups should not be relied upon but instead a measure of last resort, at least that is how I know stefan portrays it

when the FB server came out, you would get two chairs and a table every time you logged into the FB server. I went to the FB server a lot and thats how I ended up with all those.
