I'm playing UO again after a nine year absence (using the EC) and had something happen in New Haven with an NPC vendor that makes me curious.
I tried to buy some basic armor and what was in my shopping cart cost more than the gold I had in my backpack (but I had reserves in the bank). Thinking the game would automatically withdraw the difference from my bank box, I tried to complete the purchase. The vendor said I didn't have enough gold to cover the transaction and the purchase was cancelled.
Ok, I said to myself, I'll just try again but not try to buy so much. But I couldn't get the vendor's attention with "vendor buy" this time, no matter how many times I tried. The items for sale gump never popped up.
What did I do wrong? Is there a timer that prevents multiple transactions with the same vendor? If so, anyone know how long the timer lasts?
Thanks for the help!
