I'm looking for someone willing to help me figure out how to create a small shop mod. I'm just trying to make it possible to sell drowning pearls in the Nephrite Quarter, but I am having no luck whatsoever in making this work. I've been following the guide to making a shop over on the Steam forum, but I'm left scratching my head at where I've gone wrong. If there's someone with a better head for modding out there willing to chat and help me out, I'd be incredibly grateful.

 Want a taste of immortality? Reach out to me in-game to ask for a sip of Hesperidean Cider. Please follow Ocelot's guide to asking here.
New to our dark city? Send me a message in-game and I will respond when I can with a welcome gift!
I welcome most social actions, so feel free to send them to me. Just please don't ask me to Loiter Suspiciously or to help with the Affluent Photographer. I have disavowed all knowledge of her.

Hello
Adding/editing stores is failry easy but I understand it can seem confusing from the first look.
In short, you are going to need a program like Notepad++ to open and edit the .json files, and most likely a plugin like JSTool to process the text into a more readable form.
Then, go into qualities.json, locate the ID of the drowning pearls.
Go into Exchanges.json, find Khan's heart. You should see a list of availables shops (red stallion publishing and the other one). For each store there is a list of "Availabilities"
For each availability, there is a Quality (what you purchase) a cost (the price of the purchase) a Sell price, a purchase quality (the "currency" used for the transaction, often echoes) and an ID.
For a new transaction, start by copying the code of an existing one, and put it right after the other availabilities of the shop. Then edit it. You'll need to put the ID of the drowning pearls in Quality, set the prices, check that the purchase quality is echoes (ID: 102028), and give it a new, unique ID.
Hope this is comprehensible, and will get you started

What do you have right now code-wise? In what way are things not working?
