When exactly does the trader Franko come?

[Justin_760]

So its been 12 days since he last came. I had a previous playthrough where he was coming every 2-3 days, but now he just wont come back. Of course its winter and Ive been desperately needing wood and other things, Im starting to think this is a glitch of some kind.

Anyone know when he comes? And if theres a trigger or event that will make him stop coming?

Same here. Since new version come out, Franko didn't show up for more than 10 days! We're starving and can't eat medicine!

20 days since Franko last visited, the game is completely broken since the DLC released. My survivors are claiming that I also turned people away when I helped them during the day, and are becoming sad.

♥♥♥♥ that is bad I hope they fix it soon

Over 30 days since I last saw Franko. Thank god I had the Garage as a trader. Otherwise, I don't think I would have gotten this far.

It seems that only door based mechanics are broken so it should be easy to fix. Maybe this is because there are no door based events in the DLC and they accidently let code overflow from stories to classic.

so weird... and in dlc trader comes almost too often considering the length of dlc...

Yeah same, every time I help a neighbour I see in the log a comment on how bad of neighbours we are, or how its cruel we didnt help so and so when I specifically did.

So its with the DLC then? huh, would make sense. Also strange they made new DLC three years after release, not a single other game I know thats done that.

This sums it up tbh lol

Thanks for reporting. We are currently working on patch that fix this issue.

Yeah, the same problem in same circumstances.
I have more that 100 cigarettes to trade lol)
Other problem is when my custom caracter goes to help some neighbor and come back at the moning next day his custom portrait becomes black. I've encountered this problem twice.

If Franko doesn't show up my next day after the game is patched these devs can go ♥♥♥♥ themselves. Stopped playing waiting for the patch in the mean time

Hey guys,

We're actively trying to figure out what exactly goes wrong and why he doesn't come to shelters of some of you. It's always nice to have more data to work with, so if you can, please send DxDiag, ConsoleOutput and save files to [e-mail] - the instructions on how to obtain them can be found in our support guide: ( steamcommunity.com/app/282070/discussions/0/343788552536934606/ ). It's also a good idea to complete the process we have described there, there is a chance that the problem with Franko will then fix itself. :)

Cheers!

EDIT: Fixed the link. Steam blocking link to topic on Steam? Someone needs to get their filters adjusted.
