Merchants - Available Inventory... Something Weird
I read somewhere that merchants can support up to 80 items being sold at once. I made a few vendors that sell less than 50 items and for some reason, general players can't see all of the items available. Random items, seemingly without reason, are missing from the vendor.
However, if I approach the vendor with a GM enabled character, the GM toon can see every item listed in the database for the vendor to sell. Is there a reason for this (and a way to fix it) or do I need to limit my vendors to several less items in order to keep everything available all at once? Thank you. |
Make sure that your players don't have the `Only show items that I can use` checkbox marked.

I had a similar issue with vendors that I setup to sell newbie gear for every class. Certain pieces would be missing, like a cloak and shield, but then when the GM character came over they were all listed. I ended up doing a work around in those instances, by moving the cloak and shield to another vendor and then everyone could see them. Is 80 the actual number of items supported or is it far less to have a vendor where everyone can see every item available? Or is there some kind of a hidden flag that the GM characters have but the players do not? |
Poison Supplies merchant (in PoK) Loran_Thu`Leth has well over 100 items and I can see them all with a non-gm toon. Are you running shared_memory after creating new items, spells, etc., and putting them on merchants ? Also, once in awhile, I run into a little glitch, where simply running shared doesn't do it. I've had to zone out/in sometimes, but also a couple times I had to restart server, because running shared wasn't enough. Only happens once in awhile. Isolated incidents, who knows.... I live with it.

Lots of resources on the github wiki. One example, applying changes/reloading data, etc. - https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/wiki...r-Data-Loading
shared_memory.exe is an executable file in your server folder. It's usually run from the start.bat when you first start your server. It loads base data, faction, items, spells, etc. |
If I remember right, when there is a gap in slot numbers, it will stop listing there.

UF and earlier clients are limited to 80 merchant slots.
HoT and later (RoF, RoF2) support 200 merchant slots. Is everyone on the same client version? |

Here's an interesting link showing a similar behavior: http://peqtgc.com/forums/index.php?t...72/#post-69279
I'll check the code tonight and see if that was changed. EDIT: And it goes back to what JJ was saying. |
