Resetting the trader

[Moonshine Fox]

Is there a console command to despawn the trader to have him show up in another spot? Had a place planned out in a new world for him and some friends went out exploring and accidentally uncovered him in another spot.

What's the problem? Trader position is irrelevant. Just set up portal where he is.

I thought there was only 1 per world no matter who found it ?
Are you trying to build a village by him or something ?

There are a lot of possible locations he can show up. But once you find him the first time he will be disabled from all other spots. That is why i find it weird that people haven't found him exploring the ocean for more than a few hours.

One of his potential spawn points was on a small island I wanted to set up like a trading port town featuring him. Not a big deal, but if there was a dev command or mod that would let me move/reset him to there that would be awesome.

if you can't find a way to hack it, recreate the seed and go there first...
I think there is a mod to move your base to the new map, too? I don't use them, but i saw references to this?

if the server had backups, then roll back to the save before the trader has spawned.

there is no command to despawn trader in multiplayer.

It's not technically a multiplayer server, just a personal map that I opened up for my friends when we were playing together for a while. No backup saves though and it's looking like I'll just have to deal :3

Too much already done in the world to want to reset it, and the base moving mods seem too, finiky, for me to trust them.
