Ok, in this document, we are going to look at how to make more 
animals for your Animal Trainer (or any NPC vendor) to sell:

For this demonstration, we are going to use a bear..

First, we are going to make the item that the NPC will sell. 
Open you items.scp file and use this format:


SECTION ITEM 98765
{
NAME a bear
ID 20cf
TRIGGER 3000
VALUE 500
RESTOCK 5
ALIGNMENT 0
MODIFY1 0
MODIFY2 0
MODIFY3 0
MODIFY4 0
MODIFY5 0
FAME 0
}

First, the ID of the item can be found using InsideUO.  I looks 
like the bear icon when you use tracking.  

The TRIGGER is what we are about to work on.

VALUE is whatever you want this item sold for.

RESTOCK is how many you want the NPC to carry.

The rest is a mystery to me.. but I know it should be there.

Now, lets work on the trigger itself.  Open you triggers.scp and 
go down to the bottom.  Use this format for the trigger:

SECTION TRG 3000
{give bear from static
SND 00 A9
NADD 6
NEWOWNER
MSG This bear will now follow your orders.
REMOVE
}

What this trigger does is create a bear NPC, make you the owner, 
and remove the doll you just purchased.

NADD is the command that add the NPC..

NEWOWNER of course makes the person that triggered the item the owner.

REMOVE removes the item the trigger belongs to.


If you notice, I used NPC 6, which is a grizzly bear.  I only did this 
for the sake of simplicity.  If you were to use an NPC that is normally 
evil or extremely hostile, like a dragon or drake, you would have to 
add a new entry into your NPC.scp..  One reason is because you would 
want to remove the LOOT entries of the monster, and two, it doesn't seem 
that NEWOWNER sets the monsters alignment to the person who triggers the 
item.. So, when the monster would appear, it would attack the closest person.. 
IE:  the person who triggered the item.

Not to mention the fact that you might want to tone down a dragon that can 
be purchased.. I don't care what price you put on it..

If you do add a new entry into your NPC.scp for the monster that is going 
to be sold, simply replace NADD 6 with the NPC number of the new NPC.

Once you have completed these steps, all you would need to do is add the 
item itself (in this case, ITEM 98765)  to the vendor in game.. or you 
can go do this:

Do a search for the animal trainer in your NPC.scp

Add these two lines:

RSHOPITEM 98765
SELLITEM 98765

And that's it.
