Unable to click NPC

[firstheroo]

For some reason i am unable to click on any NPC's in game, this is not just edited ones in the files but all the standard ones too even down to the tele stones. Anyone came across this before?

Thanks

Normally with single NPC not being able to be clicked is an issue with the script, if its all of them then the issue is with your merchant.txt

Yeah i have been at the merchant.txt alot as i have been doing npc locations, however as its the first time i have done a server i am unsure what i should be seeing.

If someone has 5mins just to explain how the mechant.txt contacts the other more detailed scripts with the actual NPC code it would be much apreciated.


At the min from what i can see looking at bichon wep shop for an example, in merchant.txt i have:

02Weapon_Bichon 0 132 236 (WeaponShop)_Zacchary 0 0

Then when i go to mud3\envir\market_def

In the folder for "Bichon" i find WeponShop-0 with code

I guess what i want to know is how does the merchant.txt that loads all npc's know what file to go for to get the details on the npc, as thats where it appears to be falling over.

Thanks in advance

I have double posted to make clear the solution should someone have the same issue.

There are two things I have changed to get the npc to interact with players.

The first problem was that the merchant.txt was looking for 02Weapon_Bichon but in mud3\envir\market_def the file was titled WeponShop-0 meaning they didnt match up. Renaming the file in market_def to 02Weapon_Bichon-0 is necessary or visa versa renaming the file in merchant.txt

The second thing that I am suprised about and would imagine it is possible to work around is that the renamed 02Weapon_Bichon-0 in merchant_def seems to need to be in the main folder and can't be contained in a sub folder for all "bichon" npc's.

anyone can expand on this further or tell me there is an easier way im all ears
