Do I have to script smiths?
Question Submitted By: Alastor1815
I must be missing something -- whenever I try to place a weaponsmith or armorer, and have my test character attempt to initiate dialogue with him, nothing happens. No list of goods, no services offered. (I'm just doing this, by the way, on practice maps, on a LAN that's only my computer; would it be any different if the game were actually online and multiplayer?) Do I have to script the blacksmith in order to have him sell stuff, and if so, how might I do that?

Nope, not at all. You simply choose 'generic da_weapsmith' rather than praguesmithy or whatever. The generic smiths work. The only reason to script your own blacksmith is if, say, you wanted a dealer who accepted both magic items and weapons.
