for rp reasons, id like to have a few npc traders aboard my CV (like a bartender, named Isaac). but the only ones i can place, even in creative mode (and even in god mode) are commanders. but they wont allow any interaction, and it says "you cannot talk to NPCs in player based structures. i thought maybe i could build a cv, using an alien core, and leave it perma-docked inside my ship, but that wouldnt work, either (for a couple obvious reasons) ive seen mods that allow for deconstructors and furnaces to be placed on CV's, so im hoping theres a way to allow working npc's (i also want to have a prisoner in my brig who will work as a trader) any help would be greatly appreciated
Even if you forcibly placed a trader on a ship (commanders are not traders) they're like spawners. They produce a trader entity. As soon as your ship moves, he'll fall through the floor into the void.
