Changelog of Gmod Items Shops - NPC Dealer System

🚀 Added
Inflation system added. NPCs in their dialog indicate when inflation is in progress on the server. This makes it very easy to modify all in-game prices according to how the server's economic health is doing, without having to modify every price manually. The multiplier in the configuration file will do the job very easily: cfg.inflation_multiplier

📜 Configuration file
----- Currency -----
cfg.inflation_multiplier= 2 -- 1 Is the base. To divide by two the prices in game make 0.5. To multiply by 2 just put 2. 2 = 200%

Players can no longer switch to the admin menu even if they couldn't make any changes.

🧱 Improved
Improves compatibility with the DarkRP pocket. Note that it does not take quantity into account.

Inventory scripts that support quantities:
My own Inventory system: Gmod Advanced Inventory System
My own optimized pocket system who can continue to work without gamemode: Gmod Pocket System no Gamemode

⚡ Client-side Optimization
I've implemented a brand new translation system aimed at enhancing performance and reducing overall size. Now, initialization occurs only once, regardless of the number of installed scripts. Previously, each of my scripts would initialize individually on the client-side, which, with a total of 51 scripts, could lead to slowdowns. With this update, a single initialization will handle all 51 scripts and future ones, optimizing both the client and the overall experience.

Reduction in client-side code size.
