hi, i was trying to start a Minecraft stack market with writen-books, but for some odd reason, it says 'SHOP IS OUT OF STOCK" plz help -H_man689 aka CEO of Wood World on smp1
At the moment there is no easy method of selling written books, the best you can do is to put [SLOT 1] on the last line of the sign, then it will sell whatever is in Slot 1. You can do this with any slot.
It works better to put [slot 27] (for single chests) or [slot 54] (for double chests) - read this thread for an explanation. I haven't tried it myself, but it should work. Just make sure that the books you want to sell are all placed as low down in the chest as possible.
