not sure if it's because of this plugin or rust in general but i can no longer rename vendors for my custom server, am i missing something?
Can't rename vendors :(
ok i can rename vendors now but when i hover over them when holding G they don't show up unless i click on the icon, for example the standard vendor called "Farming" you can hover over and it will say the vendor name without clicking on it if that makes sense, but the custom ones won't unless i click on them, is this a plugin issue or a rust issue?
Merged post
And lastly when a vendor is on it's on the name doesn't show up but when they are grouped together, they show lol. this plugin seems very bugged, has anyone else had this problem?
To rename a vendor, the plugin just updates a property of the vendor entity. Any issues you are seeing are probably vanilla Rust.
i have a further issue on this, I’ve renamed the vendors, placed my items at the outpost, etc. However, when I hold G, the icons seem to bug out. In the screenshot, you can see a "raidable base" icon appears, along with other random vendor names. Is this a plugin issue, or is there something else causing this?

That's most likely a pooling issue, where an object is released back to a pool when the user of the object no longer intends to use it, allowing the object to be used by something else later. Mistakes in coding (in Rust or in plugins) can cause an object to be released prematurely, while it's still in use. Later on, when something else uses that object, changes made to the object are visible where it was originally being used. This type of issue could be happening client side, which would mean entirely a Rust issue, or server side, which could mean an issue with Rust or plugins. It can be difficult to pinpoint the exact cause.
