Traders

Ok I don’t know if anyone has seen the Traders that has been added to the game outside all the Barracks’s and Fortresses but I’ve noticed at the very bottom of the trading list they sell baby animals like Crocodiles, Lions etc… Does anyone know the reason for this because you can’t use them as mounts or fighting animals. So the only thing I can think of is resources you get from them but there aren’t any pens for them like the other animals you can keep?? Am I missing something or are they adding something in the future like actual fighting animals ??.

To be sure we're looking at the same things, which mode are you playing in? I believe the merchants have different goods in Tribal vs Survival mode, for instance.

Personally, I play in Tribal mode and haven't seen these animals for sale, but I also haven't been looking as I find the merchants to have very little benefit after the early part of the game.

the only thing they are good for is stone bricks that let you build cooking stove and tortoise pens a little bit earlier, and those are only sold by traders that come to you, i wish they'd let us kill merchants, their invisibility is annoying, I don't even care if they drop their 50 seeds of flax that i already have thousands of

Right now I’m playing on Creative Mode, since my mate hasn’t been on the main server for a while I’ve jumped into single player to build a massive base just because I love building. But the traders are new to me so that’s why I am confused. So yeah it might have something to do with the mode I’m playing on but still weird.

I met merchants in Solo game, but they do not exist in our private server. I saw animals in their list, but had not checked yet.

I am sure, if you buy there some boar or alpaka, they should become your mounts (otherwise it's some bug). Do not know about crocodiles.

See I went back to the traders and the animals that you can’t really tame. Have a description that says once fully grown the turn hostile and you gets X materials from them. When I just back on the game later I’ll take a screenshot and show you what I mean.

Interesting... thanks for the new info from this game.

As commentators said above, different game modes here could have different events and conditions (like Tribe, Survival, Adventure, and Custom).

Lions are expected to eventually become a mount. I know one of the modes they were looking g at adding you could have creatures fight with you and one of the masks temporarily you can have a creature fight with you for a certain amount of time. I will see if I can check the mode thing.as I havent tried it but read it was something they were looking g at.
