Hireable Merchants!
This is the result of 4chan /vg/ /keng/ wondering if it was possible to have merchants set up shop at your base.
Took on that challenge and it turns out, you can have merchants set up at your base! And the best part about this is that it makes use of the Free Traders faction, which is a group that is hardly used in Vanilla game.
Here’s how this works. The Trader Depot over at Smuggler’s Bar is home to these merchants that you can hire to stay at your base like you would mercenary security. Even have a set duration on how long they stay.
Except you can trade with these guys even while at your base. And they come with different types of merchandise to sell.
Note as these guys are essentially repurposed wandering traders, they are not gonna move into whatever shop you make and run it there. Instead, they’ll just patrol the base. So make sure to keep the merchant safe.
–Special thanks to 4chan /vg/ /keng/ for suggesting this idea. Do visit the place, its a location where mods are consistently being made where you can suggest your own or ask for help in making yours.
