Is there any way to make your vendor continue to face in a certain direction?
I just got advertising I and set up my clothing vendor to bark.. but the problem is when people walk in my house it is behind him.. and he is in a different room upstairs.. when people come in he automatically turns to face them, which makes him face the wall. Any way to prevent this?



How annoying!

hmm I *THINK* I figured it out.. when I got to the action selection.. like nods head, poses etc I didn't select anything but just hit ok. I think he doesn't do any action now, just the text.


I'm not 100% certain but I went in and out and he spoke but didn't turn..


*Crosses fingers*

I wish there was a way to make it face only one direction, and that'd be the end of it.


But alas, itcan't be done.

All we would need is an option when enabling ad-barking to allow turning or not. Personally, I have my vendor is a place where turning seems to work well

I don't even bother with ad barking anymore. First off it only works about 2% of the time, the other 98% of the time my vendor is just looking stupid staring into the wall and makes my shop look unprofessional. As a fix once I created a very small vendor and hid him in a cabinet behind my regular vendor and turned ad barking on... this worked pretty well when he actually talked, which of course was almost never anyways, so I stopped bothering.
