Yes. This behaviour started a couple of publishes ago. They talk to just about anything now including passing swoop bikes.

I had noticed them speaking to bikes before. It didn't seem common though. When I hit 3 different players store the day of the patch, I was struck by the frequency thatvendors seemed to speak to each other. Perception I guess.

I think it's funny when they "talk" to other vendors nearby. One of the guys in my guild had a whole group of them carrying on conversations with each other.

They talk to my speeder.


But they call it a Dewback, if it's a pre-programmed bark.

When I first started in SWG there was a topless Twilek vendor who used to bark: "Please don't touch my breasts." I kid you not.

Also, Doc please note that vendors can no longer be rotated by other admins or the vendor owner. Barking is the only way they turn and once they are pointed in the wrong direction they tend to stay there, from our testing last night.

The last time I tested this (admitedly some weeks ago) you could still rotate them with the /rotate command..has that been disabled?
