Do Resources Regenerate at Friendly Bases?

[kclace]

My caravan just bought all of the medicine from a nearby neutral outpost. When I came back a few days later with another caravan, I noticed that there was no medicine available to buy.

Will this outpost ever again have medicine to sell, or am I out of luck?

[RimJimMcGee]

It should do, yeah: AFAIK outposts refresh their inventories every, uh, some number of days, so they should have medicine at some point in the future, though I don't think a given good is always guaranteed to be available. I'm still on A17 (clinging on to those old familiar saves!), but I can't imagine any reason why that would've changed in the more recent versions.

some number = 30

some number = 30

Is that 30 days after you buy it, or after game start, or every first of winter/summer or spring/fall or something else?

Are we allowed to show decompiled code?

[kenmtraveller]

That's a base class/virtual function, settlements in the game probably use classes derived from it and they may override the 30 day default.

I'm fairly certain it's every 30 days although the game might stagger it (i.e., settlement A regenerates on day 15, day 45, day 75..., settlement B on day 6, day 36, day 66...).
