Vendor House Update

E.Machine · Post by **E.Machine** » Wed May 09, 2007 3:06 am

The vendor house has just been completed. Check the gauntlet mall section for a thread I will get Stickied with the screenshot. Page, or PM me and we'll get you set up with a vendor. I wouldn't start putting items on them until tonight after Server Wars though. Because the update for the cost of the vendors won't be implimented until then.

Also it seems the updated script caused some vendors to vanish. Thats really mysterious and should not have happened. For th enext few days I suggest not putting anything valuable just to be safe, but I'm pretty sure this was a one time thing.

Sorry to those who lost vendors.

mine weren't stocked with that great of stuff, but they were wearing some very nice stuff as decoration. They were also holding about 8 mil in gold. I hope you can find a log of what they had on them so it can be replaced.

Next time we're in Teamspeak together, we'll chat man. We can probably replace most, if not all of it.

No log unfortunatly but since this was a script related issue we can talk later and replace in terms of gold at least. I just hope this is not a time bomb that will keep happening.

I don't want YOU to replace it out of your items. Thats pointless, since it was stuff that I wasn't even using. The vendor inventory on my casino house vendors was 4 or 5 tots on one guy, some stealables on one with Demon Head being the most valuable, and the other guy had Elegance, Bow of Insanity, Death Ring, a tombstone, a few putrifier spleens, and some +5/+10 stat scrolls. Its what they were wearing as decoration that I am unhappy about losing. The stuff I KNOW they had on them was: Cat Foot, Wheel of Fortune, Mamosuma Hellblade(sp?), Cursed Protection, Nymph Legs, and an enhanced 140 luck spined tunic(not sure of the other mods). But I am not sure if I had a Robe of Equinox on one guy or not. I also had some armor set pieces on them, which I have no idea what exactly I had. I am also unsure if they were wearing any footwear like Achille Heel or Dex Boots.

As for my luna house vendors, I honestly have no idea on their inventory. At one point I had them stocked full (125 items each) of 110 and 115 scrolls. I also had put a few 120s on them, like healing and vet. As for the 115s, there was pretty much everything. A lot of weapon skill scrolls, some magery, taming, crafting.

The estimate on total gold that they were holding would be 7-9 mil. It is a big guess because I do not remember what the luna guys had, I know I sold some high priced scrolls on that guy. And even on my casino house guys I don't remember if the one had 4 mil or 5 mil on it, and the other 2.5 - 3 mil.

Yesterday when I was talking to Bartok about it, he told me to get an idea of what was lost. Then he told me not to worry about stuff like 1/2 rings... Hold on a sec here, those were my items. I worked hard for them and I am unhappy that they were lost because of some bug. It was a bug probably caused by some changes you guys made to the vendor system. That would be like the insurance guy saying "I know WE caused your car to dissapear, so we are going to replace the body. We aren't going to worry about the engine, tires, seats, radio, or steering wheel because those aren't major items."

I meant items of PARTICULAR value. I didn't want you to start naming off all the 1/2 rings and 14% lrc tunics you may have had stocked on your vendors. AOA's/Arties are easier to replace because their stats are known and verified. The other items that you don't remember the stats of will be replaced by gold while the specific items such as AOA/arties can easily be replaced by the item instead of the gold value.

the stuff on my luna vendors would have been mid to high end loot as compared to demise. I probably had 15-20 items with mods in the 80-100% range. That stuff doesn't really bother me though, cause it was on the vendors for weeks and no buyers. The stuff I had on my vendors as deco is a little of what bothers me, but what REALLY bothers me is the stuff I don't remember if I did have or did not have on my vendors (such as the footwear or hats and I cannot remember what one of my vendors was holding in his hands). I can't say "yeah, my vendors were wearing dex boots", when I do not remember if they were wearing them or not.

Any way you look at it, it was a decent chunk of the game's economy that just vanished. Getting this issue resolved post haste is somewhat important to me.

As far as your ltots, I bought all of them (50-70k each, so thats 250-350k total, easy to replace), and a few of the lesser AOAs. The rest... Ill have to either check with Squirrel using possible back ups, or either asking people if they knew the exact items there.
Before you ask, no, we havent changed anything in the vendor script, something I noticed though was my vendors didnt vanish, were there any other vendors placed BEFORE the new vendor house that got deleted?

I noticed his vendors vanished on the test server too. I can verify the items with a backup, but it will probably be easier to componsate in gold and add the arties, for looted items it would take a while to generate all those. For the troubles I can just componsate in a large sum of gold and arty of choice or something.
