Fresh updates. When an auction concludes the lister of that auction is automatically paid the money that the highest bidder put in. You no longer need to wait for the winning bidder to retreive the item before you are paid. The listing will also not show any more in your personal menu.

On the winning bidders side nothing changes, they still see the item they've won in their control panel with a retrieval button for the items they won. They will also receive a message in-game or a mail if they aren't online telling them what they won and that they need to go get it.

I'll be adding messages like this for expired listings that didn't have bidders at a later date.

New change on pricing and time. To keep things listed for longer periods I'm dropping the 12 hour listing time and now the minimum amount of time you can list something is 24 hours. I've also lowered the costs. It starts at R5 for 1 day and goes up in R5 increments all the way to 7 Days for R35 this is down from the previous R70 that 7 days costed.

The cost to broadcast is staying at R25.

Just some bugfixes today. There was a rounding error on bidding that I don't believe anyone was affected by but I've fixed it anyway. Thank you SKYLINE for discovering it.

To give players more incentive to list items on the Auction house I am now changing the Buy Now time from 14 days to 30 days and the cost from 5 Rickies to 1 Ricky. I have also changed the time indicator so it now lists Days if the time to expire is over 24 hours and Hours will hide if the time to expire is below 60 Minutes.

I've also changed some wording on the adding menu to better convey that the listing time only affects auction listings.
