Heard several people with the same problem. Not sure exactly what's causing it 
- but got this idea it might be related to storing Items as their names, not by 
the image filename.

I happen to have this issue with rangers recently. I got one, then golem will 
buy one, only to resell it a couple minutes later. I checked data.Resources and 
it correctly reads that quests need two rangers, but it still sells one. 
Turning off selling surplus for now.

Looks like this is all sorted out now, almost totally rewritten since then 
anyway.

Hmm, have a look under the Settings tab on the dashboard, select 
"Resources.data" from the drop down, and look for the block of data in the 
output that looks something like "_Footman":{ "quest":1 }. It is unusual for 
anything to have a number higher than 541. If there is a value much higher, 
that would be why it is buying so many. Perhaps you could paste that Footman 
block here so we might better track the problem. I suspect some bad data got 
into there at some point that is throwing Town into a shopping frenzy.

Note: to get the Settings tab to show you may need to enable Advanced Options 
on the Config context menu (the little chain link dealie to the right of the 
Castle Age Golem r#### version string) if you haven't already done so. You may 
also need to refresh the window (F5) to get the dashboard tab to show if it 
doesn't pop up immediately upon enabling Advanced Options.

Ok, those numbers are completely wrong for what's trying to be bought - will 
have a look through Town to see if there's anything obvious that's getting 
missed when it gets that data from Resources...

To reset you can just edit Resources.data in the Settings tab - and replace the 
entire lot of it with "{}" (minus quotes) - revisit all the quest pages and the 
town pages to re-grab all the info that goes in there.

If you can wait a day or so then hopefully we'll finish tracking it down...
