These work on the caravan you are standing inside, or the one caravan
of yours parked beside you. If you own more than one caravan here, put
its ID first, e.g. CARAVAN #1234 STOCK <item>.
A closed caravan sells nothing, and its wares are hidden from passersby
until it opens again. A caravan is open unless it has been closed, and
it closes itself whenever you hitch up to tow it.
Within a settlement's borders, your caravans may only sell goods while
you hold that settlement's vendor permit (see HELP PERMITS). Some
settlements also take a share of each sale as vendor tax, which comes
out of your earnings. Out in the wilds, no permit is needed.
CARAVAN SELLTO chooses who your caravan will sell to, by the
friends and enemies you have declared yourself (see HELP FRIEND):
ALL sells to anyone, UNENEMIED refuses your enemies, and
FRIENDS sells only to your friends.
Anyone may ENTER a caravan unless it is locked; a locksmith (or a
settlement's city locksmith) can fit it with a lock and key. Leave it
again with OUT. Caravans are far too large to be towed indoors.
Name and description changes are submitted to the gods, who will review
and approve or deny them. Names must be between 5 and 40 characters, and
descriptions between 400 and 1500 characters. Submitting a second request
of the same kind replaces the first.
Animals cannot be sold from a caravan; they can only be stocked in stables.
To tow your caravan, use LEAD <caravan>.
To stop towing, use LOSE <caravan>.
