About this mod Machine translation
Allows vanilla recruitable vendors to be recruited by building appropriate SS2 business plots instead of vanilla shops.
Prerequisite: Simulated Settlement 2:
Updated Chinese address on May 18th:
Prior to this, to recruit these vanilla merchants, you had to build a suitable vanilla shop.
Brotherhood Papers - 1 Armor Shop
Ron Staples - 1 bar
Dr. Anderson - 1 Clinic
Smiling Larry - 1 Weapon Shop
Trader Riley - 1 grocery store
In addition to vanilla behavior, this mod can also recruit them by setting up appropriate commercial building plans.
For example, you build a business plot, assign a settler, set up a building plan for an armor shop, SS2 will consider the plot an "active" after the construction is complete, and the next time you encounter a scribe in the Federation, you will be able to recruit him.
v1.0.1 - If you are adding this addon to an existing game, any existing active L1 - L3 graphs will count towards the unlock requirements.
That's all this mod does. Nothing more.
Install -
Use your favorite mod manager.
v1.0.1 - You can now choose between regular ESP and ESL-tagged ESP. (Lightweight plugin) Do not change this setting during a playthrough. Sim Settlements 2 will treat these as two different mods. If you are upgrading from v1.0.0, select the regular plugin.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
