HV Merchant Scrolls

Before someone happens to say "hey search the forums yes I did search which is how i happened to find the on_use_item.lua I knew existed, but that didn't fix the issue. The hv scrolls still do not activate when used. I went through my luas and noticed a npc_darkmarket lua that contains the on use item function, which makes me kind of makes me wonder what is going on. Anyone else experienced this problem? Any form of assistance would be appreciated.

Use your brain^^ The lua isn't the problem! The item is buggy ;) check your itemresource and think about the missing column in the rdb file. This bug is caused by the dump of the db_item.rdb because there is missing something which is only in the official db.

Not sure about the new Epics @ C1ph3r but in the old Epic 7.1 there is not specific variable to set the HV Merchant Scrolls to, I used lua and the scrolls worked fine.

Examples:

[Adding on_use_item function to db/rdb (I'm actually pretty sure for this column you only need to edit the db and restart GS)]

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

[Using the Item In-Game]

Not sure for 7.3 + because the Scrolls worked out of the box in 7.3 after we corrected the itemresource rdb manager.

Well the only reason I thought it was a DB problem was because my co work said we were using the same databases and I know item functions do not like in auth or telecaster so that's why I assumed it was lua. I didn't realize we were using 2 diff arcadia's till i actually brought up the two databases and compared.

So in all the db was missing the script_text "on_use_item". Thanks C1pher and smoke :)
