Custom NPC merchant troubleshooting


LegacyCloud

Recommended Posts

So for all the CK oddities I've managed to figure out over the years, this... is not one of them! And I'm at a complete loss now after circling around every guide I can find on the topic over the last few months for this. So reaching out here in the hopes that someone can help figure out what is wrong here.

 

This is a merchant (food) NPC made using a custom race. the following parameters have been set in accordance with the various guidance I've been able to find, but for the life of me I can not get the dialogue option to appear when speaking with her.

 

VoiceType: FemaleYoungEager

Stats > Class: VendorFood

Factions: JobInnkeeper @ Rank 0 (tried with and without), JobInnServer @ Rank 0 (tried with and without), JobMerchantFaction @ Rank 0, Custom Service Faction @ Rank 0

AI: Assistance set to helps friends & allies

 

Custom Service Faction setup:

Can be Owner: Not checked (tried both ways)

Vendor box: ticked

Start/End hours: 0 - 24

Location: Near self, Radius 0

Buy/Sell List: VendorItemsInnkeeper

Not Sell/Buy: not ticked (tried both ways)

Unique container placed in same cell and referenced

 

Appreciate any and all help as this is one of the last real bug bears before I can release this mod now!

I would go into the CK and set the merchant to mimic a vanilla merchant already in that town/area, and see if that works, then review for what is different between your list and the vanilla merchant. Sometimes it's silly things like voice type or faction.

 

Here is a Darkfox127 video tutorial about merchants, in case it helps you spot something missing.

Thanks for taking the time to try and assist. Have tried again setting her to work near a fixed marker instead of self, but no improvement. Also went through all of DarkFox' video again and it just confirmed that everything appears to be setup as it should be. So sadly we're still no closer to a resolution :(

Only a few Voice Type have the merchant dialogue option - the Common voice type. It will not work with Female Young Eager. It's described in the Beth' wiki. Check if you have set hours and days for the merchant, if you come in game the wrong day/hour, there will be no merchant dialogue
