Fishing is a bit too OP due to the price of fish fillets

You can convert fish whose worth is lower than 40 gold into fish fillets, increasing your profits considerably, since almost half of all fish you catch is worth ~25 gold.

IMPORTANT: I don't know if there's a fish merchant in the game yet (hopefully not) but if you are planning to add one, please make sure the purchase price of fish is lower than the selling price of fish fillets. Otherwise you would have an infinite money exploit in your game.

My recommendation would be to lower fish fillets' price to 10 gold as opposed to its current exorbitant price of 40 gold.

Hi there, thanks for pointing this out. I figured that prices were likely going to need adjustment for various things. I tried to keep things reasonable, but I’m sure there are oversights like the one you mentioned. I will likely do exactly what you said and lower the gold cost to 10. I’ll have to check back through the fish sell prices, but I think 10 is actually a good number for fillet prices. Expect that change in the next version.

Also to answer your other question. There will be a character who is sort of related to fishing stuff, but he will not be selling fish. He will potentially sell other things, but I don’t think I ever planned to have anyone sell fish.

Thanks again for bringing this up.
