Milepost Zero vendor upgrade

[Celtacross]

Has anyone fully unlock vendors on the MZO? and also fully upgrade them? (Of course there's one vendor still not available, I know). It just as soon as I unlock decorator, somehow the option to upgraded all vendors is gone entirely. Luckily I've the ammo vendor taken care of so I got Laser Carbine. But seems the rest is just gone once the last vendor being put there. All vendor still in their position, just option to upgrade them no longer visible.

on that menu(the one where u 'hire' new personal) u can only see things u can afford. IDK why they hid them, but ya, they only show when u got enough supplies.

Also was there not a bug where you could buy an upgrade for a worker or something more than once even though you already bought it? So make sure to remember what you have already purchased and don't buy it twice even if it allows you to.

I see. Let me gather a bit of supplies then before I decide to raise this issue to BGS.

not that I see, or so at least on my side. I know which one I've upgraded, and only that one to get carbine laser. I still take a look of this possibility though.

I have all of them hired on one of my char's but not all are fully upgraded.
My main is a Rifle user and have maxed Theo. Laser Carbine has become a fast favorite.
The Decorator? Last if at all.
The Imported Goods is for CAMP items and 95% of what she has is crap.
I've read and heard the Brahim Tamor's upgrades you pay for are bugged and not permanent for many.

Seen it mentioned by several Youtubers. Cannot remember the exact details of who or what it was as i have not been playing much to come across it myself.

Yes all fully upgraded.
As well as sufficient supplies you might need to go through all the conversation options to trigger things.
I read that the urchin decorator is supposed to go and retrieve magazines and bobbleheads but it doesn't look like that has been activated.
My cow is also fully upgraded with the best feed so i don't have to look after it anymore.
I can amble along behind it, taking my time to mop up foes.

Maybe the ammo guy.
Some people pay to upgrade the ammo guy but completing his quest to get the gun schematics auto upgrades him.

i've tried & lost my 1st caravan cow twice. I only saw or realized the option to hurry it. Upgrade it ? Feed it ? i'm confused. :-)) O also wondered if when it wandered in small circle off road thru bush & backm if it was feeding. Because this was after a little assault & after the circles it's health was up from around 50% to 75% ??

There are a couple of spots on the map that the cow takes a detour for some reason.
If it regains health it might be because someone has used a Medic's weapon on it or a flame weapon with friendly fire perk.
I carry a branding iron with extra flame mod to heal other players cows.

Hiring the Brahmin handler unlocks feed upgrades in exchange for supplies.
The upgrades stack and are permanent for your cow.
As it happens i helped out a low level player yesterday that got swamped by Honey Beasts.
His cow was down to a sliver of health when i showed up so i gave it a good branding on the rump to get it back to full health.

Ok, I had enough supplies to upgrade, and the option came out individually...
Honestly, I consider this is a bug...

think i read somewhere that it is a bug, they SHOULD show (including how much needed) but for some reason are ghosted. Doubt that was an actual design choice. (The other traders show how much they need for their stuff, like cow feed costs and such, so am sure it isn't intended)
