Merchant Room Setup
All merchants require a dedicated room before they'll appear. Common setup that works for every merchant:
- Lay at least a 2×2 area of Stone Tiles — wood floors do NOT work for merchants.
- Place an NPC Bed in the room.
- Use the merchant's summon idol/item within the room.
- The merchant spawns and begins selling immediately. Come back after the restock timer for fresh stock.
