mangos zero NPC modification - Modifying vendor NPCs' stock

[Arszi]

Hello,

I am looking for a way to add new items for vendors to sell in my single player game. I want to add leathers to leatherworking supply vendors, metal bars/gemstones to smithing and engineering supply vendors, etc.

I want to avoid to micromanage bots, I would rather buy the required materials from vendors.

I figured out, that I have to add new entries to the NPC_Vendor table in the database, but I can not figure out,  which "entry" is which NPC in the Creature_Template table.

Could somone thelp me please, how can I find the NPCs, based on this? I would really appreaciate it!

There is a column in creature_template called  VendorTemplateId, that should get you where you need to be   Feel free ask if you have any more questions.

I found that one (VendorTemplateId), but all the values are "0".  I mean, it is zero for every NPCs. Also the table "NPC_Vendor_Template" is completely empty. That was the point, where I became confused. Oo

Thank you for the support

Hmm... well somethings not right.   

Few thigs.

1) is this an offical mangos release from git?

2) with with a fresh install of the db, do ingame vendors have items in stock?

1, It is from the download section of this website, 2018 april 27.

2, yes, fresh install, db generated with the main generate db script, i did not modify the default settings.

The npc vendors do have their stock properly. I found no vendors with missing stock so far.
