player_shops
by mr-chibi
Shops let players set up their own stores on a server, with a 9-slot shop that other players can browse and buy from.
What it does
Each shop holds up to 9 slots, and items in a shop can be stacked up to 64 per slot. A shop owner sets prices and stocks the shop, and other players open it to buy. Payments and the shop owner's access are handled by the mod, so the owner can close a shop at any time. Shops are linked to the player who placed them, which keeps each owner's stock separate from everyone else's.
The mod is built for servers running vanilla, Spigot or Paper, and it is meant to work for singleplayer and multiplayer play. Server owners can use admin commands to adjust shop items, including limited and unlimited stock. The server must run the mod, while clients may leave it out. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the mod is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
