Another Trading NPC Thread

[Ultima_P2P]

Im trying to make my own trading npc, but its harder than i thought....

i need help with...

1. so that it only shows the selected item above your head
2. so that it will place in front of you (non-p2p)
3. it actually works

Remember this is with multiple items

If anybody can HELP and not make the entire npc for me it would be much appreciated.

Ultima, I'm just now starting my own NPC trading item, I'll happily let you look at the code to learn from it, and not steal it. =P

it is not really that hard if you have all the tradible items in .txt files on server...

It's when they fall halfway between asking for scripts and asking how to solve problems, into the realm of asking how to solve scripts. The people who do this are generally more skilled than the script-beggars, but it's still a lazy way to work through an NPC.

I dont know if that was a compliment or not
Anyways....
I dont mean Q weapons, i cant say its name(because of thiefs out there ) but its a cool idea. I got it to work anyway

The trading item is actually easy. You use, Showimg, Strings and stuff, and putnpc or putnpc2. :o

(ACC)Royce:
The only problem with making a trading item that you can carry around is that if the players both touch the layed item at once they will both pick it up. I have absolutly no clue if there is a way to get around it. There is another thread just like this dated from about a month ago that Lord Helmut was asking about which I think was given the guidelines.

Store all the stuff you have in a string, then tokenize, then rotate between the tokens according to the token number, and show the correct token image above head. Ingenius.
