Red Talon Prestige Trader unavailable

[tezman1a]

So I am suddenly unable to call in a trader such as red Talon or Independence day etc. Every time I try I get sorry we have nobody available at this time. I have started multiple new games and even uninstalled and reinstalled the game and it is still the same. Anyone came across this before?

I had this, think there might be too many enclaves. Try getting rid of one, preferably a hostile one.

Its not that I have tried starting new fresh games and its still doing the same thing.

The game is severly bugged right now especially after the dev team released the anniversary update 3 weeks ago. Make your problems known on there twitter. These guys need to fix this problem asap. Game is unplayable. They released a update that broke the game especially on daybreak mode.

You can't call in a trader before you do some story missions... You have to go up to at least "Recruit a community leader" I think.

The earliest I can get one is after I start the main first mission, build or scout something, they wont come "usually' unless your base is operational and you have a foot print in the game.

As soon as I build or upgraded something in the base it set's off the game ( yet oddly enough you can upgrade the command center for more outposts and it doesn't trigger the game start base/mission wise )

Do the "give 2 plague samples" mission and you can call trader

Yeah so I advanced a little bit and everything seems to be good. Thanks.

Probably because the Com Center carries through across all bases regardless, whereas every other facility is recycled into Materials upon switching bases.

Code is frustratingly weird like that. Especially when it comes to modding.

Red 255,0,0 color parameter + 3 = A fuel rucksack that when picked up spawns a single Zed and a hostile Enclave of 1-3.

WHAT.

THIS POST MIGHT INCLUDE ANSWER FOR ONE STRUGGLING with any sort of call-for-help-traders:

This game has lot of frustrating content for example all of these bugs.
Before I go into topic, if you have avoided 2 highest difficulty levels I give a hint of avoiding them and trying google videos about enemies spawning 2 meters from you.


And to topic: At first you need to have completed newly begun game so far that you have done some sort of bring plague samples to NPCs enclave.

IF YOU HAVE PLAYED GAME FURTHER, CALLING FOR TRADER WORKED BEFORE or wont work: you propaply have recently changed your base location or got new outpost or new enclavers close to your base.
-Traders comes to houses (propaply only to un-resource outpost buildings) close of your base and never very far from base.
-They seem not to come to red plague heart territory houses at all (if it exists close to your base) but does come to green infected buildings.
-They do not come to your owned outposts or grey/blue enclave buildings.


So you must have buildings without territory ownership of you or NPCs and they must be also red plague free - close range of your base or those damned trader calls will have ignorant denying voiceacting.
