Custom Traders Not Working?

[lippy89]

Hello.

I've been setting up a custom private server hosted by Nitrado. I managed to install several scripts without issue. However, when i tried adding base parts for my trader to sell none of them would appear. While the trader i added to the map would be present, the trade menu would be empty.

To help better explain this have some screen shots:

The Trader is visible

But the menu is empty

Here is the code in the dayz_server\missions\DayZ_Epoch_11.Chernarus\mission.sqf

Here is the code from my mission.sqm from the mission file (building supply guy at bottom + I added black market weopons to the menu and it worked?)

And some screen shots from my database

So please tell me why the plot pole and fuel cannister isn't appearing in the traders. I am new to running severs and some help would be appreciated. Thank you in advanced!

I would strongly recommend using config based traders and not on the database. Much better performance and MUCH Easier to work with.

If using custom skins, don't forget to add them to traders sqf file in a new array, too.

System looks for skin as a trader unit that will give ability to spawn trading menu, then it looks at traders sqf file for category setup, each trader can have multiple categories that represent either database or config entries to populate dialog.

How do i go about setting up config based trading and adding items to sell? I am looking to sell wood walls, floors, metal floors, cinder block walls and the like.

You can get the config files pre-made from scripts like Zupa single currency and you have place this line

 DZE_ConfigTrader = true;  at your intt.sqf &

place #include "your folder \config\cfgServerTrader.hpp" at description.ext

other details you can find in ZSC script in case of doubt revert back 

make sure to do  what @raymix has said at trader sqf

Thank you Akku14, all is working well now. The single currency script seems to have done the trick.
