[RunUO SVN] Hawkins' Vendor Auction and Mall 2.0
View attachment 16852VAM 2.0 - Hawkins' Vendor, Auction and Mall System 2.0
Credit:
First I would like to thank those from the RunUO community, especially Lord GreyWolf, Soteric, Jeff, Vorspire and others, for without their help directly and indirectly, I can hardly finish this project.
Introduction:
- Mall
Mall no longer links to house such that you, the shard owner, can set up your vendor mall anywhere as you wish. You can setup your mall surrouding Britain Bank, and you can establish your black markets deep inside the dungeons.
- Vendors
There are 3 types of staff setup walking vendors and 1 stationed player run vendor. The walking vendors will not go away but wandering inside the mall region.
a) Commissioned Vendor
They are enhanced version of Player Vendors, setup and run by players. They can be set to basing on sales commissions instead of a daily charge. They bill a percentage on every sales transaction. Players no longer need to worry about the dismissal of their vendors due to the lack of fund, this is true especially in less crowded shards.
Commissioned vendors are fully functioning when in Malls. When bringing home, they function the same except that auction/biding will not be possible, as auction and biding is allowed only in malls.
Since they are inherited from Player Vendor, you can treat them as traditional Player Vendors, and to place items to their backpacks to sell them in the classical way.
b) Wandering Trader
They are vendors selling bidable items. They are only walking inside the defined mall region and will not wander away. They are owner setup vendors selling unique items allowing players to place bids.
c) Pet Seller
Although all 4 types of vendors are capable of selling pets, pet sellers are more specialized in that they show off the selling pets when players are around. That is, they are actually selling your pets.
d) Restockable Vendor
They sell non-unique items with their inventory automatically refilled, more or less like the usual NPC vendors. The difference is that, the shard owners/game masters in game can dynamically place items and pets for them to sell.
- Auction
Players can place bids or bargain back on selling items and pets.
Pre-requisite:
You need to install Callandor2k's RunUO with Mondain's Legacy. Coz it's the version this development is based off.
Installation:
- unrar the package and place it to your Custom folder
- to merge the "distro" scripts
- start server
There are only 2 distro files you need to change, and only slide changes are made in the 2 scripts
1. PlayerVendor.cs
2. Snooping.cs
Instruction:
Package de-installation/removal:
- delete all vendors in mall
- delete the manager
- type [Save to save the shard, which will force a proper after deletion clean-up
- then type [SaveStone to go to the Mall Save Stone which is used to store auction records and etc., and [remove it
- shut down the server and remove the package
Package:
It is better to download the most updated copy from CodePlex,

2. Snooping.cs
Instruction:
- Find a suitable location to setup your mall, then type [manager to spawn the mall manager
- Single click on the manager to open the Mall Setup menu, then choose to mark your Mall region. When the region areas are marked, the walking vendors can be spawned and they will only walk inside the region
- Place the vendor tiles. To make sure the stationed vendors can stand on the spots, you can use the Setup menu to target yourself to generate the tiles in your standing positions
- Spawn the walking vendors, that is, the Wandering Traders, Pet Sellers and Restockable vendors
- Add selling items and pets to these staff setup venodrs, that is, the Wandering Traders, Pet Sellers and Restockable vendors
- Players can now purchase the commissioned vendor deeds and auction account books from the mall manager. They (players) can run their commissioned vendors in the mall or in their own houses ( disadvantage of home-stay vendors is that bids are not allowed. Bids are only allowed for vendors inside a mall )
