Title: I have suddenly stopped getting traders passing by
Post by: zidey on October 07, 2014, 01:31:05 PM
I have a comm relay and the trade beacon.

I got them when i first played alpha 7 but since adding mods I don't.

These are the mods.

Hmm I don't see anything here to suggest they have stopped. How long have you been ingame, are you just being unlucky?

Try going into dev mode and making a trader come, see if its broke at the event level or the auto trigger level.

enable dev mode in the game options (main menu) then start a game, at the top of the screen will be some buttons press the one with the arrow on it and youll get a page of options, one should be spawn general trader or words to that effect.

What mods do you actually have on, im playing with all those mods among others and have traders no problem.

oooh wait, Moreweapons isnt on A7 yet...thatll be why, check the version.txt file inside.

Im gonna split my github up into different mods so this is avoided in future, didnt expect to hit an issue with the update that would only stop 1 mod but I did hence the delay.

Remove more weapons that should fix your problem.

MoreTurrets has a flamethrower in it anyway, the stungun is the one im having issues updating.

ahhh that explains the errors.

found the trader spawn, using dev mode it shows up, does that mean it is working and im just being unlucky?

No my mod is causing it, remove it and youll be fine.

I found it highly amusing that I was just helping out then went "oh those are my mods....dammit I bet i messed up something" lol!

Ive modded a fair few games in my past, this community eats those for breakfast...actually its so nice it probably buys them breakfast. :)

The only other game I generally get mods for is skyrim and damn people are so full of themselves!

Also turns out I had an older build of the game even though I downloaded this when it came out..
