👮 Legal Limits

• Illegal Farming: Growing more than 20 plants triggers a major police alert ("Large Illegal Farm").
• Selling: Selling on the street risks police attention if witnessed.

📈 Dynamic Pricing

NPCs have different "moods" when buying:

• Lowball (40% Chance): They offer 70% less than market value.
• Normal (50% Chance): Standard market price.
• Highball (10% Chance): They really want it and pay 50% extra.

Editing: You can adjust these percentages and chances in client/selling.lua (look for "Dynamic Pricing" around line 215).

💰 Price Configuration

There are two places to configure how much money you make:

1. Base Price (config.lua):

   • Look for Config.Selling.buyerPrices.
   • Here you set the Minimum and Maximum base price per joint.
   • Example: ['joint'] = {min = 25, max = 35} means a normal offer is between $25 and $35.
   • Note: This price applies to ALL types of joints (Lemon Haze, Purple Haze, etc.). They all sell for the same potential price range.

2. Dynamic Logic (client/selling.lua):

   • This applies the multiplier to the base price you set above.
   • If you want to change the "Lowball" from 30% to 50%, or make them happen less often, edit the logic in client/selling.lua (around line 215).
