📋 About This Mod

This mod will come in handy if you want to add shop NPC's to your own Outposts.  I went through a ton of npcs and these below all work for me without problems, you can interact with them and buy / sell stuff.

They will also automatically refill stock after 24 local hours if you sleep.  Some npc's are random.

*You technically should be able to add these top 3 npcs to every outpost you make.  I wouldn't overdue it and spam too many, it will kind of ruin the gameplay imo. It may also cause issues / bugs.  Do as you wish though.

First thing a warning as with all mods I would HIGHLY recommend backing up your save game folder and save a couple times before using these commands in console.  I am not responsible

if you break your game and possibly mix this with other mods that cause issues.

Instructions:  You can use either the .txt files included in the main download or you can manually type the commands in console.

if you use the .txt files put them in the main root directory of your game.  You still have to use the console for both methods, its just easier to remember the bat file names.

1.  DR.(doctor) NPC SHOP that functions-    player.placeatme 0026fdee in console     OR  bat dr in console

1. 1 Alternative Doctor-   player.placeatme 0001291e    (alternative doctor from the well) this npc should not leave the ship when you dock at Atlantis.  Make sure to spawn the NPC actually inside of the ship and not in the Loading Ramp room.

2.  general trader SHOP, ship guns resources misc-   player.placeatme 001a2c9d in console    OR   bat generaltrader

3.  chunks employee SHOP-  player.placeatme 001440d2 in console    OR   bat chunksemployee

If you mess up or if you need to delete or remove your added npcs, open console click on them and type disable but, BE CAREFUL what you click on.  Always Save before changing things.

  You can technically spawn these NPC's anywhere, but I intended this for Outposts where it would make sense.  You can always build and design an area for each NPC as well and make it look really cool.  I recommend adding Chairs / stools or crew stations close to where you spawn the new npc's, sometimes some of them will sit in a random chair, etc.

-------------------

NPC's that walk around a little bit to make your outpost look more alive, they might say things if you interact but that's it.  Marines will attack enemies that come in range.

Marines are helpful in protecting your outpost.

Npc shoppers (they don't do much)

player.placeatme 0036893d  OR  bat shopper1

player.placeatme 0036893c  OR  bat shopper2

player.placeatme 00181df1  OR  bat shopper3

player.placeatme 00181b97  OR  bat shop
