[Stargazer]

well, cheatsheet has a mob spawn rate changer and i used it but that didnt work either

[Rosa Umineko]

have you've beat golem and looking or looking for the probe in the 2/3rd outers of the map?

[Stargazer]

um yea
i used cheatsheet to up spawnrate

[(Kiamond) Clueless]

If the lunar events are still running, martian probes can't spawn and the martian madness event cannot be initiated

[(Kiamond) Clueless]

maybe that's your problem

[Stargazer]

i never do it during lunar event.

err, yea, i dont think so.

Ok No lunar event means no towers either. But, try downloading fargos mod. There is a NPC that sells the RUNAWAY PROBE which is used to insta summon the invasion.(or just use cheat sheet and get the item)

I usually build a martian probe farm in space... I never have problems getting martian invasions. You try making a section in space with a water candle set? Usually can get one to spawn in under 5 minutes on average. Helps to have the cell phone or the rare creature detector so you know when one is near though.

Hahaha... well, I never play modded so no idea how all those effect anything, but in Vanilla the best way to get a probe is to not want one then hang out near the edges of the map.

Like most rare enemies, the randomizer can and will screw you over... but as long as you've met the spawn requirements and are in the right place, they'll show up eventually. Typically whenever is least convenient.

go to the outer edges of the map, and build up to space. also use a water candle and battle potions. might want to do it during a blood moon too, they spawn more frequently during that. if this doesnt work idk what to tell you
