    A quick few tips regarding merchants.
    1. If you cannot set permissions on a 'loot' NPC it is because you (or your players) have not been assigned(chosen) a character yet. In the bottom left corner of your screen, you will see a 3 people icon with a dropdown titled 'Players'. Expand this and ensure each player has linked a character. If it is done right it will look like this: PlayerName[characterName]. Any player that has not been linked to a character will not appear in the Permissions section on a lootable NPC. This is NOT the same as Configure Permission you access by right clicking on an Actor.
    2. If your loot is disappearing it is most likely because you changed the settings of the token rather than the actor. I've found that amending the actor, ensuring it is perfect before dropping the actor on to a scene, is the most reliable method of not having vanishing loot.

    I'm having a problem getting this to work at all though, I've double checked all my stuff and watched the video 3 or 4 times now trying to figure out where I went wrong, no dice. Token is a one word name "Barkeep", so that's not it.

      A common issue is forgetting to change the scene you're working in to the active scene, otherwise just make sure everything is typed correctly, modules are activated in game and such as well.

      It still works, just make sure you've updated everything. The code for the Macro can be found under Compendium > Macro > NPC Chatter > Specific Token Chatter. Also make sure you put spaces in the Trigger Happy Journal Entry like this: @Token[Barkeep] @Trigger[click] @Macro[Barkeep_Greeting] Without spaces it was failing for me, too.

    Hello for everyone. READ IT IF U HAVE PROBLEM WTH THIS.
    One of the problems that I have had, after following these tutorials from various channels, is that nothing happened (No chat from the NPCs). There wasn't even an error message. the problem is the permissions of the macros, which must be set to LIMITED.
    Good night

    • @KoboldDM
      @KoboldDM  4 роки тому

      If that's the case, it's probably a problem with the Triggers. Make sure everything in the Trigger journal is spelled correctly. Check the Token configuration, and make sure the token itself is named exactly as whats inside @Token[]. If that doesn't work, make the token's name a single phrase without spaces. For some reason I ran into trouble when I tried tokens whose names had a space in them.

    This is super awesome! Thank you for sharing this so much, this will make a session Im working on way cooler. One snag though, I wanted to use the same dialogues for multiples of the same token (like waitresses, courtesans etc) and while clicking any of them totally works, the bubble only ever pops up over one of them on the map, rather than the ones clicked. Any idea whats going on or maybe a work around?

    Is there any way to make the NPC chatter work on a non active scene? In my campaign I have it set up to where one player can go to one scene while another player goes to a different one in a market using the teleport poi module. But using this module does not activate the scene so it won’t work with chatter effects. Any tips?

    attention any new people to this video, The merchant NPC lootsheet 5e barely works.
    It will deduct money from the player character, but not add the item to their sheet.
    The roll-table functionality is completely gone and broken.
    There are other modules that achieve this same merchant effect I believe though.
    Chatter still works great!
