OptionNpcFlag

This is the npcflag that the NPC must have to display this option. (See table in previous field)  

ActionMenuID

If you want to create a sub-menu, this is the ID (gossip_menu.MenuID / gossip_menu_option.menuID) to link to to create that sub-menu.  

ActionPoiID

If you want a POI (point of interest) to display on the minimap (like how a city guard places a marker when you ask directions), this is the ID from points_of_interest  

BoxCoded

If you want a box to display where you have to enter a code, set this field to 1.  

BoxMoney

The amount of money the player has to pay for the selected option, appears in the confirmation box as amount of gold, silver, copper. The DB value you insert here must be given in the number of copper, so 10 gold is entered as 100000 (10g 00s 00c).  

BoxText

This is the text of the window that appears that has "Yes" or "No" as clickable buttons. This is useful if you want a Yes/No confirmation window before the script executes. For example: "Are you sure you want to teleport to Dalaran?". If BoxBroadCastTextID contains a valid broadcast_text.ID, it links to broadcast_text so the content from broadcast_text is displayed directly instead of the BoxText field content.  

BoxBroadcastTextID

The ID of the same text in broadcast_text.  

VerifiedBuild

This field is used by the TrinityDB Team to determine whether a template has been verified from WDB files.

If value is 0 then it has not been parsed yet.

If value is above 0 then it has been parsed with WDB files from that specific client build.

If value is -1 then it is just a place holder until proper data are found on WDBs.

If value is -Client Build then it was parsed with WDB files from that specific client build and manually edited later for some special necessity.
