Trader Area Player Build changes how the invulnerable trader zone behaves for the player. Instead of being locked out, you can place, mine and repair blocks freely while the area remains completely protected from zombies, animals and explosions.
The mod adds the ability to build and modify structures inside the trader's safe zone, turning it into a secure base without breaking its protection against hordes. Water placement, repairs and upgrades all work as they would in a normal build area.
Everything can be toggled through a simple configuration file, letting players enable or disable individual features such as water pouring or the whole mod itself. It is a small, focused set of Harmony patches that doesn't touch core game files, so it stays compatible with other mods.
This is ideal for players who want a safe, permanent base at a trader without losing the vanilla invulnerability that keeps the horde out.
