Dear Kenshi Team,
I have been playing for a few years and would like to give some feedback:
It is my dream to open little towns across the world of Kenshi and have wandering NPCs visit to run various errands. I would like them to Buy stuff often from different buildings (Farm Supplies, Weapon/Armor Shop, "Restaurants", "Hospitals", etc.), Sell stuff to my shop keepers, and Stay the night in my bars. Pretty much get the same attention other towns do. It is fun to pretend that I am opening inns everywhere for all those drifters, tech hunters, and starving bandits to rest at. My faction "Oasis of Light" offers shelter and aid to the weary in the harsh world of Kenshi.
The main thing blocking me from having fun doing this kind of stuff is Wandering NPCs not buying stuff from my shop counters.
Details about Shop Counters not working are in my post in the bugs section. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14190
--------------------------------------------
Suggestions:
+Wandering Traders with bigger wallets that buy all kinds of goods:
I have read in forums that players got NPCs to buy mainly food and first aid kits. It would be nice for NPCs to have enough money to afford and occasionally buy my masterwork weapons + armor. Not because I want to make money, but because I want my fine craftsmanship to be appreciated by non-sentient AI.
+More detailed Shop Counters:
As a stretch goal perhaps a "Shopkeeper" job with limited access to your funds and item buying preferences. (Just to help fill up NPC Trader wallets so they can buy my masterwork armor. And randomly sell it back to me...) Also it feels a little weird to leave my shop counters unattended in an empty building.
+A "public bed" NPCs can rent so I can fulfill my inn fantasy
+NPC desire to sit on my bar chairs
+More attention to my towns from wandering NPCs in general:
Those big groups of mercenaries, plastic surgeons, and recruits that move around between NPC bars; send 'em over to my towns.
+Clear all jobs function for characters:
Many times I will make a group of my characters be responsible for all 20+ of my farm plots, and if I want to have those characters do something different I have to manually click off all jobs for each individual character. (By the way, I REALLY appreciate the "Repeat Queue" function put in a while ago for crafting stations.)
--------------------------------------------
This game is awesome! There is no other game quite like it. Thank you for all your hard work. I look forward to playing it for many years to come.
Sincerely,

Do you believe the sexes should be equal?
Oh heavens no.
Then Men would become unmanageable
