bubblehead Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I was wondering if it is possible to put a level on the booth of the vender. I realize the it is in the dialog when you talk to the venders. Just seems it would make it a little easier to find the vender you needed.

Lobevaser Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 That would be a nice thing to do .......... BUT " it was not like that in LIVE " so it might ot happen here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMichaels Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 or change the name of the vendors - make the first name "sound" like the level of items Ono Mera Twor Mak Thwee Wee etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evermore [LDEV] Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Name change of vendors will not happen. Adding the lvl of what the vendor sells " to the name " will not happen at this time, as we feel it takes away from the personality of the vendor.

Falstar [MOD] Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 One thing that may eventually be possible is to differentiate the flags of the vendor levels, while still staying 'in character.' That however is a low priority and I have heard of no success with that so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhobix Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 I would like this as well, and I think the best way to do this would be to add a discrete number representing the level of the components sold somewhere on the posters on the front of the vendors booth. This may not be possible though since I don't know if the booth graphic models programmed into the client is flexible enough to cover all levels. Maybe that's what you mean by "flags of the vendor levels". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phorlaug[IS] Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 For the players that have been playing Earth and Beyond for a looong time, We should know where the Primary Level venders are especially if your a builder. (I don't) I'll suggest, a mouse over level display. Or what I have, a Galaxy map over my monitors with the stations and venders Level at each station.

MrMichaels Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 i guess a post-it on my desk works as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhobix Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I just bring up the Net-7 Portal on my side screen if I really need to know. Both the Map section and the database has information on which vendor to go to for a certain level of components. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrichards Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Yeah, this data is included in the net-7 database and any player/builder is able to learn what vendor sells what level item very quickly. I can see where this could be annoying to new players but I don't think that the annoyance level rises to the level that devs should even look at seeing if any modification is possible. This is especially true since there can be no modification of the game client. IE: Use the net-7 database, list the info in your captain's log, or learn the vendors.

bubblehead Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Or put a ( # ) at the end of the venders name for the level of comp. they sail. I'm sure that would be really easy add. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cant be that hard, but I can see that it may not be that important, either. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
