Improved Customers Info

TCG Card Shop Simulator · BepInEx mod

Your customers stop being a spawn table.

Every shopper gets a permanent name, a face you haven't seen ten times this afternoon, a purchase history above their head — and offers that make sense.

v1.0.0 Requires BepInEx 5 Safe on existing saves Every feature optional

Name, spending, and what they came for and can't find.

Names

Everyone has a name, and keeps it.

A first name floats over every customer, drawn from 300 you can edit in a text file. It is permanent — the same person is called the same thing today, tomorrow, and after you reload. Nothing is written to your save to make that work, so it can never drift out of sync.

Underneath, in smaller text, sits how many times they have bought from you and their average spend. Your regulars become obvious immediately — and so does the gap between a browser and someone who drops a fortune every visit.

Lost sales

See what they wanted and couldn't find.

That third line shows what a customer came in for that you are not currently stocking. Anything already sitting on a shelf is left out.

So it isn't a shopping list — it's a live list of lost sales. A customer with no third line found everything they came for. Watch it through a busy afternoon and it tells you exactly what to restock, and which items you have never stocked but people keep asking for.

Faces

200 more people through the door.

The game ships 36 male and 16 female looks. That female pool is small enough that you see the same woman five times an hour. This adds 100 more of each — 136 male and 116 female.

They are built by mixing real parts from the looks the game already has: hair, clothing, colours, build. Nothing is invented, so nothing renders broken. Men are built only from men's parts and women only from women's, so you will not get makeup turning up on a bloke.

Paired with one-visit-per-day, repeat faces effectively stop.

Trades

Offers that aren't nonsense.

Vanilla will hand you a card worth ten times anything you own, or offer thousands in cash for something worth a few hundred. Either way the economy stops meaning much.

Offers now stay fair in both directions. A customer asks for something of comparable value to what they are giving, and cash offers are capped against what your collection is actually worth. When their card is so good that nothing you own could answer it, the offer itself scales down to something tradeable rather than gifting you a windfall.

Real numbers from a level 20 shop whose best card was $10.18.

And the quieter half

Shopping that behaves like shopping.

Installing

Unzip into the game folder.

1Install BepInEx 5 and run the game once, if you have not already.

2Unzip the download into the folder holding Card Shop Simulator.exe. It merges into BepInEx\plugins\ on its own — nothing to move by hand.

3Start the game. Names appear above customers straight away.

To uninstall: delete BepInEx\plugins\CustomersImproved. Your save is untouched and loads fine without it.

The name lists are yours to edit: Names\Male.txt and Names\Female.txt, one name per line. Put your friends in there if you like.

Everything is optional

Turn any of it off.

Settings live in BepInEx\config\com.mod.customersimproved.cfg. With Configuration Manager installed, press F1 in game and change anything without restarting.

Built from three earlier mods — Better Customers AI, Customers Variation and Customer Names — merged into one, because all three hung off the same customer identity and fought each other when installed apart.

Works alongside other mods. If a game update removes something it relies on, that one feature switches itself off rather than taking the rest down.
