All pylons function the same, with one exception. Once you’ve pushed an NPC’s happiness far enough, they will sell you the pylon for some gold.Įach pylon has several possible combinations, but we will discuss only a few that will provide the best results. Mastering the “Happiness System” and moving NPCs around so they stay in suitable biomes and close to other NPCs will be crucial in obtaining these precious items. After that, you can put a single NPC that they like close to them and that should give them enough happiness to sell you the pylon for that biome. Putting an NPC alone in the biome they love will get you most of the way towards to threshold needed to buy a pylon. For example, if there are more than four other NPCs in the area, any happiness bonuses from living with a liked neighbor are mostly negated. The system also considers possible overcrowding and adjusts happiness levels accordingly. If the NPC is not happy, it won’t have a pylon in its sales inventory. They also need to be close to other NPCs they like to get enough happiness to sell you the pylons.
Each NPC has specific biome preferences that add to their happiness.
