  1. I didn't know what forum to post under so I am just going to post it here :oops:

    Does anyone know if you can sell shulker boxes filled with items under choose signs? Just curious lol

    Thanks :rolleyes:
  2. Not sure myself, but would be easy to test that with someone. One thing to be clear of is I'm pretty certain " blind" sales wouldn't be allowed, so a sample preview shulker should show all contents so players know what they are buying, as you can't see full contents in a chest preview
    NuclearBobomb, weeh and Trwe like this.
  3. Thanks! Was just wondering but I will keep that in mind if I do ever pursue a shop like that :)

  4. Unless that has been changed with 1.20+ updates,
    No, shulkers filled with items will not work with shop signs of any type.
    :(

  5. There is a way to do this with remote shop signs and redstone circuits. There is an example on one of EquableHook's residences. It needs to be approved by SS though.

  6. No you can't,

    I created a redstone contraption for a prototype of this mechanic within my res, im not sure if I removed the TP or not, but it should be near the supporter voucher shop. The shop doesn't have shulkers in it, but you can probably explore my overcomplicated redstone (and simplify it quite a bit)

    Contraption explanation:
    • Have a shop that buys and sells a book for the exact same price B 5k : 5k S
    • Have a second shop sign buy the book for free, after triggering this, a comparator detects the inventory change and drops the shulker on top of a player with a dropper.
    • Quirks?
      • There was a piston that blocked the shopsign which bought the book for free, if the shop detects there is no more stock, that way the player can sell back the book at the same price via the original shop sign.
      • The book from the Free sign travels back to the 5K sign via droppers. Autorefilling it... (that is why the inventory check happens via comparator of stock rather than default via sign, to prevent accidental "scams")

  7. unfortunate

  8. Wow this is so much simpler than the design I was messing around with in creative. I was gonna sell the books and then have something like a vending machine with sorters that put the books back and dispense the skulker.

  9. Sadly no as the preview won't show the full contents fo the shulker someone is buying. This is why you have to sell in quantities of 1728, 3456, etc. When I ran my auction, and someone had shulks of stuff, I had to place and preview sign every single shulker so folks could see what was in there.

  10. It would be nice, however it would require Mojang to program the game so you can hover over the shulker and see the contents plus the dev's to program in game shop sign's to work that way.

    I have my bulk buy set up to sell max inventory of 1728 items. You could design a simple redstone shulker unloader to refill the shop chest ready for the next customer as long as the chunk is loaded for that to work.
