[center][size=5][b]PRICE COMPARISON TOOLTIP[/b][/size]
A lightweight standalone mod that adds clear price comparison information directly to merchant item tooltips.[/center]
[b][size=4]FEATURES[/size][/b]
[list]
[*]Displays the merchant's price and the total value of the selected stack.[/*]
[*]Shows the item's vanilla reference value in square brackets.[/*]
[*]Displays the percentage difference between the merchant price and the reference value.[/*]
[*]Uses graphical green and red arrows that work independently of the selected game language or font.[/*]
[*]Automatically applies the correct color logic for both buying and selling.[/*]
[*]Integrates directly into the vanilla merchant tooltip.[/*]
[*]Display-only — the mod does not change prices, item values, merchant behavior, or the game economy.[/*]
[/list]
[b][size=4]HOW IT WORKS[/size][/b]
The price line uses the following format:
[center][b]Merchant price (stack total) [reference value | arrow percentage][/b][/center]
Example:
[center][b]67 (2479) [60 | ▲ +12%][/b][/center]
The arrow shows whether the merchant price is above or below the reference value:
[list]
[*][b]▲[/b] — price is above the reference value.[/*]
[*][b]▼[/b] — price is below the reference value.[/*]
[/list]
The color shows whether the difference is favorable for the current transaction:
[list]
[*][color=#4ABA00][b]Green[/b][/color] — favorable when buying or selling.[/*]
[*][color=#BA0000][b]Red[/b][/color] — unfavorable when buying or selling.[/*]
[/list]
This means that the same upward or downward arrow may be green or red depending on whether you are buying from the merchant or selling to them.
