Handicap-I-Must-Be(merchant help)

[Producer_BMW]

Okay yet again I have dumb questions because im lazy and cant find it where to read it ,


So say im in POK and I want to make a MERCHANT HOLD TONS OF GOODIES

#spawn Noob_Gear <-- that being the name of the MERCHANT I would like for the first one ... and also do I have to #permaspawn ??


Riiiiight ....


So how do I turn this Regular S/O/B into a merchant where my MERCHANT EDITOR will recognize him and pick it up as a ID#

or for better yet can anyone explain to me a GOOD way of doing it

ALSO if you have time to answer this question MAYBE you can help me set up a (*SPELL SCRIBER*) as well and help walk me through it

Make sure that their race is set to 41. I remember that confusing me for awhile.

So can you type it out how it SHOULD be like

# _____ __ ____ ___ ??

please ...

INSERT INTO npc_types VALUES (202373,'Recruiter_Lauren','Spell Scriber',70,1,41,1,800000,1,1,0,6,500,500,0,999999,0,0,200,1000,'ABH',50,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,96,0,2,150,150,150,150,150,1,1,0,1600,0,0,-33,0,150,150,150,150,150,150,150,1,0,1,0,1,0,0);
INSERT INTO spawngroup VALUES(99999,'Recruiter_Lauren1',0,0,0,0,0,0,0);
INSERT INTO spawn2 VALUES(99999,99999,'poknowledge',-19.9,61.9,-157.2,157,0,0,0,0,0,1);
INSERT INTO spawnentry VALUES(99999,202373,100);

This is a set of queries I use to add a custom vendor to PoK. (She also functions as a spell-scriber and a few other things.) She's currently set to use merchantlist 999999 (so I don't have to change the IDs every time PEQ releases a new database).

If there's a way to create a merchant via #spawn, I've never tried it. However, if you're looking for a permanent one, you're free to use the queries above to add this one. Customize it as you'd like.

Im confused which is the merchant and which is the Spel Scriber and how do I make the scriber work

Sorry if im taking up your time I just wanna do it right

[So_1337]

Forgive me for adding confusion to it. Her first name is Recruiter Lauren and her last name (the that displays in <> tags) is Spell Scriber, so I wanted to explain that she was being used for that on our server is why she was named as such. She won't scribe spells unless you have a quest file in place for her.

The query I gave will put her in as a simple merchant NPC in PoK, very near to where #zone takes you for that zone. It's next to a nearby tree. You can put any items you'd like on her so long as they're in merchantlist #99999:

INSERT INTO merchantlist VALUES (999999,1,17403);
INSERT INTO merchantlist VALUES (999999,2,75844);
INSERT INTO merchantlist VALUES (999999,3,29066);

The third column is the item ID, and you can change it to whatever you like. Just use these as a template if that's what you're looking to do.

Hopefully that helps clear up the confusion. Sorry for not explaining it clearly the first time!
