New Trader in bugged area
DIR By: guest307

---------------------------------------------------------
Edit: h0tr0d
At 784 N 824 W I spawned a Trader outside the bugged compound
since I haven't fixed the area yet.
Yes you can probably kill him; if you do so you lose a trader.
End edit
Howdy all!
It has come to my attention that Trader Bob is capable of being
broken. I've caught snippets of conversation in which h0tr0d
has said that our player-made structures around Bob (Hereafter
referred to as "the Market") are impacting is ability to reset
Bob, as it will reset the area back to Day 1, and therefore
remove any editing we've done to it.
While this idea blows, the alternatives are, in my personal
opinion, less agreeable. For clarification, here's the choices:
- Reset the server (which I know will happen one day, but I'd
rather it not be today! :P )
- Force anyone that wants use of a Trader to head south.... the
seed-mapping claims there's 4+ traders down there, but you could
get shot trying to haul your goods to them. Never mind setting
up player vendors, which are free to be raided.
With this in mind, I propose that we, as players, help to
provide a better solution.
Let's start hauling the mats out of the Market. Let's break
down and salvage what we can, and let's make a better shop area
somewhere nearby! Personally, I was going to see about creating
an addition to Alexandria that could be used as a new Market
area.
It was pointed out that we don't know how what area will be
affected, or how big. This could be disruptive to other nearby
structures. We'd need h0tr0d to place us some in-game markers
to show what would be affected.
If anything outside of the shops would be affected, I'd be
willing to assist the affected player(s) with moving.
Thoughts?

Some food for thought:
1. That isn't the only Trader Bob on the map, and apparently the
problem is affecting at least one other Trader Bob (the one
halfway east near the equator).
2. It isn't affecting Trader Joel. I visited him after running
into the issue and he functions fine.
This makes me believe that it's actually the same Trader Bob
(that they share state, even though different instances), and
the problem is not tied to the land but rather to Bob, who won't
be reset by a targeted rollback.
I suggest testing the rollback idea on the other Trader Bob
before doing anything to the Market. He is broken too, and if he
can't be fixed in that way... does not bode well for the world's
longevity ☹️️

I've been fixing traders as they are pointed out to me; however,
due to the fact people built so close to trader joel up north,
this makes it a bit more ...complicated

That's how I understood it, and is the reason I suggested this
solution. Would we be able to get some sort of marker in-game
that would show us the size of the affected area, so we know
what needs to be moved??

Zenji PM me those cords of the trader you referred to.
And yes, Jakdaw, I am going to have to come up with something.

Just so I know, how close is too close when building near a
trader?

In the process of moving to Alexandria now, the wife is very
excited to have a new build project ::)
On a slightly unrelated topic, is it possible to request a
command to 'grab' Shop blocks the same way we grab LCBs? I ask
only because of the extreme amount of time/money investment that
goes into acquiring them, and to the best of my knowledge, there
doesn't appear to be a tool that allows you to safely pick them
up.

I can make them so you can pick them up but imagine the
griefing. As to making them like land claims; I doubt it as the
/grab lcb is a CBSM command, not a stock game command.

Darn. Nice thought, anyways. Guess it will just need to be a
consideration made when setting up/moving shops. Appreciate you
looking into it.
