This Greek army smuggler exudes a sense of rugged resilience and cunning stealth. His weather-beaten face, intense eyes, and scruffy beard speak of countless covert operations and survival in harsh conditions.
Use alexkarpen’s mod insted. Hephaestus
Old versions still work
This mod is an adapted version of alexkarpen’s original “HEPHAESTUS”. As the initial creator, alexkarpen deserves full credit for the foundational work.
In this iteration, the emphasis is on enhancing the trader aspect. This trader is now more expensive, has an increased purchasing capacity, and exclusively deals in roubles.
Originally developed for personal use, I’ve decided to share it with the community. The trader in this version is designed to price presets based on flea market rates, ensuring compatibility with mods that alter prices.
The trader becomes available at level 15. To activate his services, players must sell food, weapons, mods, and ammo worth 10 million roubles to him.
The trader now features a new image.
Future updates will include quests to unlock “Discounts”. This aspect is still a work in progress. (Post-3.8.0)
Please note that the trader’s inventory does not update instantly. To see the changes, either enter a raid or restart the game. (If anyone has a solution, please let me know. 
)
Should you encounter any discrepancies with price calculations, please don’t hesitate to inform me.
Tested on 3.7.4 and 3.7.6 with no problems. (Standalone)
Occasionally, an error occurs in the console when attempting to fetch weaponBuilds. It should not cause any functional problems; the issue is purely visual in the console. (I am actively working on resolving this issue) Might have been fixed in 1.0.3

After thorough testing, it appears that the console error has been completely resolved. Please inform meif you come across any instances of fallback prices or encounter the console error.
Changelog:
- Updated to read Description frombase.json instead ofmod.ts (This change will make it easier formein the future when quest implementation is needed).
- Conducted code cleanup.
- Adjusted the fallback price to: 300,000 RUB

The console error appears to be resolved. I haven’t been able to replicate the issue with my current testing (which has been about 5 hours and involves ~50 presets). To ensure complete reliability, further testing is required.
Please make a comment if you can replicate the error.
Your feedback is always welcome and appreciated.

wait for an update for version 3.8?
Can you make it so he is tiered by the template cost? So like ll2 unlock upto 300k, ll3 unlock up to 600k, ll4 max remove cost cap? With something like 3m for ll2, 6m for ll3 and 12m for ll4?
Hey, seems like I have a problem with the trader.
I’m level 28, sold him 10 mil item values

Server is running, do not close while playing SPT, Happy playing!!
Hi ! Quick question, since I am really bad at coding and therefore cant find it in the code myself
:
Where does the trade get the presets from ? Are they stored in a seperate folder ? Or does it acess them via the profile somehow. Normal EFT (afaik) stores the presets on the online profile but does SPT do that as well ?
Would it be possible to edit him to require less money to unlock? I find the 10M restriction a bit much considering he only accepts like, weapons and food lol, I’m level 21 and only have 1.7M spent at him
edit: I changed the four values under his loyalty levels to 5mil in base.json and that seems to have done it without breaking anything
not sure whats happening i got 10 million for the trader and im level 19 and restarted and gotten into multi raids just nothing pops up and im getting no errors

“unable to generate flee offer for smuggler, no assort found” ? no items pop up even when i hit the 10 mil plus keep getting the same error
Sell him 10m to activate his service meaning he has an empty inventory before that?
