Hey, it's "merchant content!"

Sort of like a "theme park"

Maybe we'll get a badge!


Ok, I'm gonna go back and fret over my vendors now.

The trick is easy, they implemented bug-rotation. Today you have the map-register bug. Tomorrow you might get the items-listing bug. At least thats how it worked for me, yesterday was map-bug day, today i cant re-list my items cause it says I have reached max-items.....

Cant wait whats on the plate for tomorrow! SWG is Fun again!






The map thing looks like it is just cutting off the registrations at 50. That means that if your vendor was accessed earlier today it might be on the map. Thats obviously not intended behaviour and we might even be mistaken about it.

Probably on Test Center they didn't exceed 50 so wasn't a problem, so didn't get spotted, so didn't fix it before pushing it to Live.


Also there is still a problem with the Planetary Map as cities are not showing up, including Mos Eisley/Tatooine and Keren/Naboo. No vendors are in these cities.


I think its a problem with the workings of the Planetary Map, and nothing to do with the operations of Merchant.

You're out of time, SOE The whole 2.5 months shouldn't have been. The game was fine up until Nov 15th. If the CU was worked on, instead of devoting time to the NGE (including the many months prior to November), the game could possibly be totally bug free by now.

My account cancels on 2nd Feb, which was a waste as only played game for 1 day to get the life day gifts, will be resubbing when creature handler, Bio-engineer, scout, and ranger return, oh and the FS village.

What you need to do is the following to get your vendor to show up on the Planetary Map.


Create your vendors and dress them in clothing that you deem aesthetically appealing to you.



Activate your vendor and fill it with credits for happy normal operation.



Stock your vendors with goods for sale.



Register you vendor with the Planetary Map. ^If you have the skill!^



Sacrifice 3 Chubbas, 4 Krayt Dragons, 22 Enraged Reptilian Flyers, and 1 Vorpal Bunny.



Grind to Master Dancer.



Grind to Master Doctor.



Buff your Action and Quickness.



Have a Master Combat Medic use area poison on you then dance using a macro to constantly flourish over and over again till you become incapacitated. Check vendors for normal operations.
