How to setup a vendor in the mall?

[mignuts]

Is there a way to do this?
I noticed that there are red vendor stubs on the floor where there are no vendors setup.. so yeah, can we rent a spot?
I bought a Vendor Rental Contract from the guy on horseback with blue shield (Edgar the royal guard), but I can't use it unless I'm in a house I own.

Try double clicking one the red deed locked down on the floor of the mall.

If you own the house, it needs to be set to "public" before you can place a vendor in it. After all, how are players supposed to buy your goods if they cannot get into your house?

Secondly, there are two types of deeds:

The "contracts of employment" are plain colored deeds which are used to put vendors in your house. Set your house to public (only the house needs to be set to public, you can still make chests, doors and teleporters different access to prevent people from entering restricted areas of your house). Lock the deed down and double click it to make a vendor.

The red deeds (vendor rental contracts) are vendors you rent out to other people. You can set those down then double click them to offer the rental to a player in close proximity (target them). Of course, if you don't care who rents your vendor, you can rent them out to anyone, just double click the deed and target the deed itself, this will allow anyone interested in your vendor spot to rent it out. Your house must be set to public access to place.

Those contracts are set so anyone can place a vendor at any time in that location. You should be able to double click.

Hmm that is strange, I just went to check, and it does the same even to me. I had coded those so they can be placed and setup in advance and anyone could double click it to get a gump and place a vendor. I really don't know why they stopped working, there has not been a code change in over a year.

Unfortunately we are not in a position to do a shard update, but I will keep this in mind and try to figure out why they stopped working.

Edit: I added them all back and they seem to work now... weird.

Didn't you have to recreate your admin char? I'm assuming that was the original character who placed the deeds.
