Open Microwave merchant clothing bug

Post by TrevorDemented »

I have used both the stable version of Open Microwave and the nightly version there is a bug. When the player sells clothing or armor to a merchant the merchant is very likely to wear/equip the item. I don't know how else to report bugs so I decided to post it here.

It's not a bug, it's replicated Morrowind behavior that isn't supposed to be changed by default. There's an option that allows you to prevent that. Nornally it's available from the launcher on the PC, but in your case you'll have to toggle it directly through the config file.
1. Find settings.cfg file
2. Find Game section (add it if it's not present like [Game])
3. Add "prevent merchant equipping = true" to a new line without quote marks to that section.

Newly sold items won't trigger autoequipment after that.
