Crucible should always be for sale

[optOut]

I saw it for sale within day 10 - 12 from Bob, and I couldn't afford it. On day 13 I was ready to buy it, but I've never seen it for sale again. Currently day 20. Frustrated.

Yes, I cheat... oooga boooga, it's a single player game. I am really hurting myself... what should I do?

OH NO, Imma die now.

Look don't do it, save your soul now.

Do you always come to this forum to pick a fight with someone? because, you want to?

but in fact, youre answer was stupid. someone asking to get item XY, youre answer was: "Cheat".

Sorry dude, no normal gamer would give that antwort. you can cheat how much you want, but that dont have anything to do with "normal" oder "good" gaming. imagine i couldnt beat a game without cheating like you lol.

Oh ffs, you have no idea about me. None. Yet your projection towards me is hostile for no reason.

Don't to it. it's that simple.

And what is a normal gamer? One that needs to disparage someone with a different opinion. i doubt that.

Again, be insulting, I can't stop that. But this absolutely noting to do with the question posted, Nothing, so your post was less helpful than mine, so thanks I guess.

No item in the game that I know of is set to ALWAYS be for sale at traders. Thus, asking the developers to not only code this in but to do it for one of the most powerful tools in the game is a futile and unreasonable request.

But you can do it yourself: turn on creative commands in settings, open the creative items menu in game, give yourself a crucible, then drop 15k dukes that you have legitimately earned on the ground. You have just bought an "always available" crucible. You can even do all this while standing at a trader counter to make it feel immersive.

And I'm not being snarky here. The game already allows players to make a huge range of difficulty and balance changes to keep it fun, so you don't have to wait for the devs to do it for you.

Lots of items are set to always be for sale at traders.

Well at least at every restock. I mean if you buy them they are gone but a trader is guaranteed to have them each reset. If fact, there is a list of items in the XML literally called "traderAlways", that every trader will have.

Cooking pots, grills, armor parts, sewing kits, player vending machines, gas cans, boiled water, respec elixir, bandages, splints, etc.

Also the dew collector gatherer, tarp & filter are always in the inventory you just cannot see them unless you have a high enough trader stage. The amounts are random for some of the items but each time a trader resets he/she will always have these items.

It takes absolutely no actual coding to do this, just a few edits to traders.xml

If you add this <item name="toolForgeCrucible"/> to the traderAlways group, they will always sell it.

No coding necessary. Thus, maybe less futile and unreasonable?

I kind of like the lottery of finding it. Although, it's not that rare. You just have to check multiple traders every trade cycle.
It is frustrating when you see it early and it goes away when you have money. Lol

I ended up getting it after day 21 horde night for completing the cop challenge. The timing on this was fine and may be my go-to strat in future games.

in my game the first trade has sold one since day 6

just go to wasteland and kill 50 cops at night. done. free crucible. or free tier 3 solar cell. the later is actually better as its way more expensive and means infinite energy. then on the other hand fuel is a non issue.
