Satisfaction Score: if item is food: hate -> love = 1 -> 5 stars; if not food: normal quality -> iridium quality = 2 -> 5 stars
Aesthetic Rating: the number of tiles that are crops or decorations in the area, increased from 0 tile found to a maximum score at above 58 tiles ( for example a chair = 1 point, coffee table = 2 points, festival dining table = 10 points )
Paradise Island detail:
A special island that has only 3 seasons Spring, Summer, and Fall. In spring every crop and fruit tree can grow ( like a greenhouse). Trees have a chance to grow faster, have extra daily fruits, and have higher maximum fruits.
The island can be open for visitors. Then you can set up a resort and sell items ( which return higher price than any other place ). The visitors will randomly visit the Island house and any buildings on the Island.
When the island is open for visitors, every Saturday will be a festival Market Day that you have yourself a grange to sell items, and some other villagers also have their own stalls. The money earned during this Market Day will be counted toward your Island Progress score.
Island Progress score is the money you earned during Market Day / 2000000 ( see Config ). A higher progress score mean more visitors to the island, unlock new shops during Market Day, higher sale prices, higher chance for crops to grow, ...
The Villagers' shop stock can be customized ( see Config -> Advance )
General:
The selling price differs by location: Paradise Island house > Paradise Island > Farm Building > others. Other factors affect price: gift taste (food), quality (non-food), decoration score, customer interaction score (per customer), during rush hour, market recognition level, store theme (licensed Farm Building only), island progress score (Paradise Island only)
Customer interactions: After vanilla dialogue, there is a chance that NPC will be given some new dialogue. Interacting with them will increase your interaction count with that villager. If they buy anything later that day, they will pay a higher price than normal
A customer may have a chance to "recommend" your store to nearby villagers: If they are positive about the item (good quality, good taste, good decor), they will share a "positive recommendation", or "negative" otherwise. When nearby villagers receive "positive recommendation", it increases the chance they will buy something. If it is a "negative recommendation", they will not buy anything the rest of the day.
