Question about a trader bug


Belell

Recommended Posts

Has anyone encountered a bug where the trader npc doesn't display properly and so you cant interact for purchases or missions? The trader nearest my base has bugged out. it will show for a quarter second or so, start an intro dialogue, then disappear and cut off the dialogue. If I am fast enough to click the npc before it disappears, it will still proceed to disappear and the "inventory/mission" options come up but don't respond to selections. I've checked other traders on my map and they display properly, sell inventory, buy loot and give missions properly. Its just really annoying not being able to sell loot, buy items and pick up missions from the one right next to my base. right now I'm having to drive a minimum of 2+ kilometers for missions.  I've tried exiting, restarting the client, restarting the computer and nothing works.

Does anyone have any kind of a work around or fix for this? also, can anyone tell me, if I delete the client and reinstall it, will it erase my game saves with the deletion?
I'm not uber computer savvy, so just looking for advice. Thanks in advance.

i THINK this is what you were asking for.

Yes, exactly. The log is showing the trader respawing multiple times.

Unfortunately it's not showing any other errors, so I'm not sure where to go with this.

Try this. Press F1 and enter dm in the console. Go to the bad trader and press F1 again

and enter chunkreset cr in the console. That should reset the trader poi and may fix the trader.

And you have to restart after the chunkreset.

Well, i gave it like three tries and the trader kept glitching out. Seems odd that its the only trader doing it though.
