 TIP |
Here’s a tip for searching the PlayerShops web site (linked at the end): Click on the SHOPS button instead of the ITEMS button and search there – it not only looks for shops by name, but includes all the signs in the shop in the search. If the shop owners list script names and unlocks on the signs, you’ll be able to find it in that search! https://ps.lichproject.org/ |
