So i was doing a little shopping with about 12 squaddies and i came across this easy money and items bug I'll record a video soon to show how the bug is done. (It's more of an exploit)

You simply click and drag the item you want from the vendor and right click outside the trade window, the item will then still be beside the mouse cursor even after releasing the left click. This enables you to close the trade window with the item still by the cursor which you then place into your inventory for free.

Doesn't seem hard to fix this. (Although i wouldn't know, i'm not a programmer of any sort)

Hay,

Confirmed, I tried it and it's possible.
I don't use as is some sort of cheating.

Also confirmed. I used it once when I accidentally sold a piece of armor that I was gonna give a new squad member and I didn't have enough catans to buy it back. Hey... this gives me an idea for a feature request.

theres also the exploit you can use to have traders drop things on the ground that you want for free.
