1. name: The name of the shopkeeper.

2. model: The model name of the ped that represents the shopkeeper.

4. surrenderDistance: The maximum distance the shopkeeper allows the player to travel before considering them a threat and deciding to attack. If the player moves beyond this distance without surrendering, the shopkeeper will deem it necessary to take aggressive action.
