⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust: 27,460 endorsements and 627k downloads — this is a proven mod.
- Does exactly what it says: more merchant gold, no bloat.
- Last updated in 2011, but for a simple tweak like this, it still works fine for most players.
👎 Cons
- No install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author.
- Last updated in 2011 — may not be compatible with the latest game version or other mods that alter merchant inventories.
- No options or customization — it's a one-size-fits-all increase, which might be too much or too little for some playstyles.
