I built a Weapons Emporium and everybody I put to work at the station doesn't have anything to trade?

I put somebody behind the station that I personally gave inventory and when I interact with him I don't even have an option to trade with him...

Was this weapons emporium a waste of my time?

HOW DO I WEAPONS EMPORIUM?????

If anybody else finds this and is having the same problem, I fixed it by opening my warehouse options, going to the weapon emporium, and stored it in my warehouse. After I replaced it (it was a different location but I don't think that mattered) and reassigned a settler to it everything worked fine... Weird bug but it was pretty easily fixed!

They only do business during the daytime like 8a-7p. You also need to give them a little time to have inventory. I generally wait 24 hours in game time. Their inventory will auto generate so there is no need to give them inventory.

I honestly think I have 24 hours of actual real life gameplay after creating the weapons emporium and have also waited for 24 hours game time multiple times after searching around through reddit I thought maybe that was the case.

About the daytime thing, I make sure it's daytime and he's even behind the counter, when I interact he just says some settler thing and I don't even have the option to trade with him

Does it matter that my settlement is located on the boathouse?

Sounds like a bug to me, try assigning a different settler to the Weapons Store.

Him not offering to barter with you is a known bug.

This is the closest thing I can agree is happening.

I can talk to the vault tech guy while he isn't assigned and I have an option to trade with him, when I assign him to the emporium I don't have an (A, X, Y, or B ) option, he just says his said dialogue.

I built it a long time ago and then just gave up and did some story mission, the fact that is hasn't been there long enough has to be out of the question.

Haha it made me put a smily face when I typed B with the closed parenthesis, should be fixed now
