Thread: Structure Transfer Question

Our guild has a house thatwe would like to transfer to another player without removing all the items and redeeding. I've read about the /transferstructure command, but would like some advice beforewe proceed.


The house is basically a crafter's shop and has the following items:


3 crafting stations

1 vendor

A large amount of resources in backpacks


My biggest concern is the vendor. This building is going from a crafter to a combat character with no ability to place a vendor.Do we needto unload and destroy that vendor prior to the transfer?


With the exception of the vendor, am I right in assuming that all other items will transfer without anything disappearing? Will all admin/entry permissions have to be reset? Will maintenance paid on the house transfer over?


Any information/advice would be much appreciated.

You are able to transfer any structure to any player despite play style. The vendor will remain intact as well as the items inside the structure. Although I must warn you of a bug that I have encountred upon transfering a structure.


I recently had a house transfered to me, and do to a bug, after I recieved the structure I was unable to see anyone listed on admin/entry/ban lists, and was unable to add or removeanyone. I tried doing this from the terminal as well as using the /setpermission command. Currently the only way that I know to get rid of this bug is to redeed the structure. In which case you would need to take out or delete all items in it, and have the vendor removed to save any items that are listed on it.


I have known several people who have had problems with this bug, but seems to be only a problem on Corellia and Naboo, on my server anyway. Good luck

Thank you very much for the information.


We'll give it a shot. Worst case scenario isthe bug gets us, and wehave to move everything and redeed which is what we'd have to do without thestructure transfer option anyway. I'm very happy to hear about the vendor, though.We have aTON of stuff on it that I wouldn't want to see disappear into thin air.

You won't be able to transfer the structure with the vendor in it. You will need to pull the vendor down, although you will be able to place it again once the house is transferred (provided the Merchant is on the admin list).


You will need to have the new owner's name on the admin list *prior* to using the /transferstructure command. This is the only way to avoid that unable to admin bug that was mentioned above.

Wow, I got a correspondent response. Better than I do on most other forums.


Thank you for the information. Now I just have to test my ability to follow directions correctly.

I have been able to transfer structures with vendor's in them on more than one occasion. Although, I had to wait for the owner to remove their stock before I was able to redeed the structure to get rid of the bug.

It used to be that vendors needed to be removed to be able to transfer the house, but that changed somewhere along the road.


I was about to add to the bugged house list Tat style houses, but remembered that the one house we had problems with was generic. A working way around this bugcould be(?)to anticipate it and add the new owner into the admin list before the transfer. Dunno, haven't encountered the bug except once. Tho, after that one, I've always had people on the admin list before transferring the structure to someone else.
