Traders are placed by using a [[trader contract]], which is included in the purchase of a size 10 or greater [[village deed]]. A new trader must be placed at a minimum distance of 63 tiles away from other traders. Traders must be placed inside a [[building]], but stay functional if the building disappears. Traders cannot be moved after they have been placed. If the village is disbanded, the trader disappears as well.
