Shop routine

TURBU

Shop routine

 

Opens the shopping system.

 

Syntax

 

function shop(style: word; messageStyle: byte; store: word): boolean;

 

Description

 

The shop routine begins the shopping system.  The style parameter determines which type of shop will be opened: 0 is a buy/sell shop, 1 is a buy-only shop, and 2 is a sell-only shop.  The messageStyle parameter refers to the set of shop messages to be displayed.  The store parameter refers to a store inventory previously set up by the prepareStore routine.

 

If an invalid number is passed to any of these parameters, it will be corrected to a default value: the lowest valid number for each case.  A default shop # 0 that sells nothing is created automatically during setup.

 

The routine returns true if anything has been successfully bought or sold, or false otherwise.
