Traders, On Your Terms — TLL Open Traders v3.1.1
TLL Open Traders is the trader framework we built for our own server — and it's free for anyone running 7 Days to Die. Version 3.1.1 is a full engine port for 3.0/3.1: traders became entities in 3.0, and the mod now drives the new trade systems natively.
What It Does
Trader Scheduling
Set custom trader hours globally, per day, per weekend, per trader, or purely for Blood Moon nights. Force traders open, closed, or on horde-night-only hours. Overnight windows wrap midnight correctly, and the server announces open/close with optional countdown warnings.
Trader Teleport
/tp Bob— fast travel to any trader by name/tp Bob 2— pick a specific instance when a map has duplicates/trader Bob— check status, distance and direction without teleporting- Per-player cooldowns, combat blocks and Blood Moon restrictions, all configurable
Personal Teleports
/fav— save one personal location anywhere on the map/tp home— anchor to your own bedroll or land claim, re-verified on every use
Trader Discovery
Require players to physically find a trader before teleporting works. Unknown traders show as ??? or stay hidden entirely. New players auto-unlock their nearest trader so nobody starts stranded.
Immersion
Per-trader welcome whispers, proximity rumors as players approach a compound, and server-wide trader radio broadcasts on a timer.
Restock Control
Override the vanilla restock interval globally or per trader, with an optional restock broadcast.
New in 3.1.1
/tp back is now a true undo my last teleport — it reverses your last /tp, /fav or /tp home and no longer eats your cooldown, with a new /back shortcut.
Trader identity resolution has been hardened across every feature, so rumors, discovery, welcomes and per-trader rules bind reliably even to modded traders the game hasn't formally linked to their compound. Existing configs carry over untouched.
Getting It
Server-side only — no client install, works with existing worlds, no wipe required. Runs on dedicated servers, hosted listen servers and single-player. Ships with 11 ready-to-use presets and a full preset guide.
