Vendor Packing Up

Post by bismuth »

Vendor pack up is not functioning correctly. Vendors in invalid locations are dropping all their items in a bag at their feet and you get "a contract of employment".
Vendor packing up:
When the owner says "vendor" (or equivalent to keyword to the vendor) it checks to see if it is in a valid location.
Valid locations are inside houses owned by the owner (currently keyholder). Once ownership is complete, friends of a house will also be able to place vendors in a house.
If the vendor is not in a valid location, he turns into a deed in your backpack.
The deed does not weigh a ton, as it would if all the vendor's stuff were in there.
The deed does not affect the item limits on the backpack.
The deed is called "a deed for a vendor named (so n so)" so you can tell who you are moving.
The deed works like any vendor deed. To place him you just use the deed in a valid location.

Use an empty small house, use detect hide, and snoop the vendor controller. Then search vendor for all the items being traded, using item id/arms lore as necessary.

Make sure nothing's been added to the snooped pack, or dropped on floor, etc., and then watch for vendor deed to be created. Trade house deed(s) for vendor deed, as the safest transfer.

Not foolproof but better than being blind.

That all assumes the packed up vendor deed can be transferred to another player and reopened. I've never tried such a thing.

Seller can just hide an empty vendor deed somewhere in his backpack, or have a hidden character with one logged off inside the house when you reveal/track. There are so many bad things possible in that scenario.
