If anyone is curious on exact figures, Rimworld's trade ship calculation works in On and Off cycles. Trade ships will never arrive in the Off cycle, but a specified amount of arrivals will happen randomly over the On cycle.

In vanilla Rimworld, Cassanda and Phoebe will send 1 trade ship during a 7 day On cycle before an 8 day Off cycle, while Randy just has a chance to send one when he chooses a random positive event, which is why you'll sometimes get years between them.

With this mod, you'll always receive 3 trade ships during a 9 day On cycle followed by a 2 day Off cycle, for all 3 vanilla storytellers.

I've just posted a similar mod with what I feel is a balanced amount, 1~3 trade ships during a 14 day On cycle and a 1 day Off cycle, which you can check out here: https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3605292979

Why didn't I found this earlier? Tks so much!

oh! thanks I need this.

고마워!

Any risk adding to existing saves?

oh god thank you. i've missed this mod so much.

@wheely bin burnouts
yes it works when loaded in 1.5. It's just that it shows an incompatibility warning, so we (as i'm not the only one complaining about it here) always need to check if it's really incompatible, or just it's marked as so.

I don't know if this is an error, but it only sends me genetic traders from the Vanilla Genetics Expanded mod, any ideas on how i could fix this?

Can you mark it for the older versions as well so it doesn't throw any errors.

Did you try loading it anyway?

you removed the older versions, now it shows it's only compatible with 1.6. Could you please add the older ones back, mainly 1.5?

ty

I updated it. 1.6

Бамп. Апдейт требуют наши сердца.
Update!

1.6?

Plz update

1.6 ?

This doesn't seem to be making any differences for me at all. I've got no storyteller mods enabled and its right at the end of the load order.

bump

Can you use it on already existing save?

That seems a bit excessive. Does the mod allow adjusting the frequency?

Not sure on the exact math but expect 1-3 ships per day.

How much does this increase the frequency of trade ships? 20%? 50% 2x?

Won't work on 1.4?

TY!

done

Plz Update. TY!

This is a pretty good mod

Thank you @pickpickpickpickpickpickpickpick

Best trade mod overall, just use this instead for 1.4 guys

This will work for any version until devs change storyteller code, as all this mod does is patch a few lines.

1.4 pls

Hi! This one is a must have on my modlist. Any chance it'll be updated for 1.4?

Anyone know if they going to update for 1.4

Anybody know if this works with Trader Ships (i.e. the mod that adds ships that actually land)?

I see, ok, thanks for the response!

This will work for any version until devs change storyteller code, as all this mod does is patch a few lines.

1.2 please, also how come no more ships that sell slaves? At least haven't encountered one in a very very long time across a lot of games. Thanks!

1.2 pls

There are no smuggling ships, what the hell?

got 2 trader ships at the same time, was nice! Thanks for the mod, it works very nicely.

Doesn't seem to work for me.

@XoXo I was thinking the same thing. It seems like those kind of interaction events need to increase because I never see traders and keep getting the royal slave donation beggars instead.

is it just me or do these trade ship events compete with events like quests ec because it seems i get less from those now...

Ty for the 1.0 link!!

Very useful~

Could you make more money for merchant ships?

@Vakaria the link in this mod's description is exactly the thing you're looking for (1.0 ver)

Any chance to get a 1.0 download for this, please? I'm avoiding 1.1 until all the mods I use are updated. Thank you!

Original this mod by Pino is updated.
