spawn command for xstn-k II? only 1 mobile equip merchant in galaxy?

[MIYUKI]

Early on in my current game I saw the mobile merchant who sells the mk2 artifact but did not have the funds to get it then.

Now I have been camping salvage yards for the past 5 days waiting for him to arrive so I can get into the center. No luck.

Is there a command to give me the artifact?

Is there only 1 mobile equipment merchant in the galaxy? I would prefer not to backtrack to 500+ sectors to see where I spotted him, if he's sitting in OOS stasis... :(

No, there is definitely more than 1 merchant. So wait and pray for luck :)

Yeah, ended up searching and found admin console command that allowed me to spawn it in.

What was the console command? I've been looking around for this guy for ages. It's the last artfact I need.

Mobile merchants are a "random event", and can spawn anywhere (except for 0,0 I believe, as that was meant to be fixed).

Just need to catch them when you find them, or wait until that random event occurs again, like Poney stated.

I know. I just didn't want to wait any longer and was willing to use a console command to cheat. I found it. You have to enable the debug window and spawn it from there. For anyone that wants to do it here's how:

1. Open the chat window (ENTER).
2. Enter the following command: /run Entity():addScript("lib/entitydbg.lua")
3. A little puzzle piece icon will appear in the top right corner labelled "~dev". That's the debug menu. Click it.
4. Go to the "Spawn" tab at the top of the debug window.
5. Click the "Travelling Merchant" button.

It will randomly generate one of the travelling merchants (turret, planetary, equipment, resource, etc.) so just keep pressing it until you get an equipment dealer.

the dev menu also has an option that gives you 1 of each of the artifacts as well. thats how i did it.

Yeah, pretty sure the trader artifact is messed up. I have gotten the guy to spawn at least 10 times now, and he never has the artifact. Last one I need, bored out of my mind with the pre-barrier stuff, just going to cheat this one in. Last I need........
