Help with missions!

Hi!
I'm making a mod with three new factions, which own some bases. Everything was fine. Encounters flied around and I got missions rumors and bribes from the NPCs on the new bases. Then I changed in mbases.ini the [MVendor from 0,0 to 2,4. Now I can get missions from the Jobboard but the NPCs on the bases do not give me missions anymore! I don't know why! Please help!

I also made some new News, which I can read on my new bases, but now the NPCs sometimes don't give me rumors. Can it be that the Jobboard hinders the NPCs to give me missions and the News hinder them to tell me rumors? I also thought that maybe it is too much to give the NPCs in the mbases.ini rumors, bribes and missions! If someone knows something about this please help me!

My last problem is, that two of my new bases do not show up in the trading list of a commodity (to see how much does a commodity cost there), but the other new bases does! I searched for missing entries but can't find anything! Which entry is needed to see the bases in the trading list (The list you get to see if you click a commodity at the commoditydealer)!

Here is my mbases.ini entry for the bases, but I think it is okay (Ew07_02 shows up in the trading list!):

As I recall you must visit a base before it will show up in the comodity list...

As for the NPC missions...I don't know...Do you have vingette zones?
The mision your faction is offering can only be against those the faction hates...

I already visited the two bases, but they still don't show up in the commodity list! I can't immagine why!

Yes I have vignette zones! The NPCs give me missions, if i set the [MVendor to 0,0, so that I can't get missions from the Jobboard. But if I make the Jobboard giving me missions the NPCs wouldn't give me missions anymore! It sounds like a bug!!! Please help and of course thank you Firewing!
