MES Mobile Merchants

Description
MES Mobile Merchants is an NPC mod that adds friendly traveling merchant encounters that will come near you with randomized wares, which you can buy in their store block and also buy certain items from you (similar to Trading Stations). They will have a random Builder faction tag of an existing faction from your world save. They will find you automatically as long as you are at least at 0 reputation or higher with the concerning faction.

Tested and fully compatible with the new Modular Encounter Systems mod by Meridius_IX.

To test: go on a planet and type /MES.SPCS.Mobile-Merchant
If it doesn't work, try a couple of times and make sure you also have the Modular Encounter Systems installed.
Also make sure your world has Trader factions and you are are at least 0 reputation or higher with them.
Additionally, Planetary Cargo Ships have to be on [spawn:true] in the Modular Encounter System settings, which you can find in your save game -> storage folder -> modular encounter systems -> Config-PlanetaryCargoShips.xml

I have also had a problem. I start a new Apex save and slowly added mods to see what was compatible. In the beginning wolfs were the only reason I stated alive. Now no meat. Had to deactivate the mod. I miss the merchants.

Here to second what @Termin said regarding that it reverts wolf and spider drops back, I have confirmed this by examining this mod's ContainerTypes.sbc file, after running into this issue during my current modded play through with the Apex Survival update

As of Apex this mod reverts wolf and spider drops back to components and not meat

I for the life of me could not get this mod to work, I tried everything including loading just MES & this mod in its own world and running the command still nothing.

Its a dam shame since this was one of my favorite MES additions:steamsad:

Is there a way we can increase the reputation? Is there a benefit to doing so?
Is it possible to invite merchant ships to land in a specific location (e.g. building a dedicated landing pad specifically for them)?

May I modify the mod and use it for myself? (With credit of course)
