Merchants in Morrowind Options

[TheCheshireKhajiit]

So it’s been a while since I have done a mod for Morrowind and an even longer time since I played around with adding a merchant to the game. I have discovered that I have need of doing so since nobody else has for what I need. Does anyone here know what all is involved with setting up added merchants’s store inventories?

That is true, some merchants always have the same products ready to go, while others must restock if we buy their food / ingredients. This restock seems to take 24 in-game hours, though I've never gotten scientific about this. Maybe we have to simply exit and reenter the inn for her to restock? Not sure.

An example of the latter is that lady who runs the inn in Pelagiad. I think if she has, let's say, bread for sale, we can buy this bread, which will then be gone from her inventory. It takes awhile for her to get new bread, but she always does.

But there are also some merchants who never run out of stock. There's a merchant who one of mine buys an endless supply of ingredients from, and she makes dozens of Fortify Intelligence potions from these ingredients. We can buy 10 at a time (10 comberries, for instance). Exit his menu, go back in. Voila, 10 more ingredients can be bought.

I have done zero modding in MW so far, so I have no idea how this works. Khajiit is ahead of Renee.

I like modding Morrowind! I feel that there’s a simplicity in it but you also get the sense that you could do almost anything with enough experience.
