There should be 4 menu options not 3. PC's and NPC's share the same menu in the gump. PC's should have their own menu option. It would make it much less tedious if You didn't have to sift through everyone's vendors in the menu when your riding around looking for some trouble to get into. In dungeons its not a problem bad but there are supposed to be 4 options in the tracking gump.

This has been brought up before and the way it works currently is the way it worked in '99.

Again, this has been proven to be a hundred percent fact here previously.
Picture from the demo of the tracking menu for you...

Derrick and I both have a different picture from a Chessy archive that lists the same exact tracking index as the demo that was taken during the UOR era. If "players" was added seperately to the index ever during a period of Ultima Online it wasn't during the pre-t2a or t2a era.

Player/NPC split happened when they added the Arrow that points to your tracking target. We have the older, and I believe correct tracking system here.

Did player vendors appear on the tracking menu in era?
I don't know if they did or not, I just never remember tracking one.

Player vendors did come up during the Dread days I know, not sure if it stayed forever, but it would make sense considering they didn't really change tracking till they added that huge arrow and made it an idiot-skill

Going off just memory I believe they did show up on the tracking menu, though they were simply under the same "human" category.
