Restocking from a cart

Restocking runs through a manager with data of its own.

Restocking in TCG Card Shop Simulator is a shopping trip of its own: the game runs a restock manager with categories, a cart, a checkout and screens of their own.

In play

Restocking is a system rather than a menu. The game runs it through a manager with its own data, which is why ordering stock and shelving it are two separate jobs.

It is sorted into categories. The restock screen has a category bar of its own, so browsing stock is organised rather than being one long list.

It uses a cart. Items go into a restock cart with its own bar and a panel for each entry, which is why the game can show you what you are about to bring in.

There is a checkout. The cart is paid for on a checkout screen of its own, which is why restocking finishes rather than running a tab.

It is separate from running the shop. Restocking has screens of its own with their own panels, so adding stock is a distinct activity from setting prices or serving customers.

An entry on the list is drawn with enough to decide on. Its panel carries two pictures, a name and an alternative name, the amount and the unit price, and an animation for the popup, so a line on the list is readable rather than a row of numbers.

The add-to-cart screen settles the amount. It shows how many boxes are being bought and the total at checkout, and it has a set-amount input with a display of its own, which is how a quantity is chosen before the cart is paid for.

The restock side carries figures of its own as well. Its data holds the price of a licence, a flag for whether prologue content is shown and a flag about double images, which is how the shop decides what a restock list should offer before you browse it.

It is split by kind as well. Tabletop games restock through a screen of their own rather than this list, which is why the game keeps its stock apart by what it is.

What this entry does not tell you: what anything costs, how many items a cart holds, or how long a delivery takes. We have not verified those numbers, so we do not print them.
