Gameplay questions / Re: Do traps only work if you are in the area?

Thank you for the replies. If you’ve got traps 60 tiles from home then that confirms proximity is not my problem. I’m simply in poor locations.

How many overland tiles from your home do you typically create successful trap areas?

I've had no luck all summer long with baited pit trap/fence lines near a pond in an area with animals, as I've seen suggested. My son thinks that animals are only simulated within a limited distance from were you are. This trap area is around 20 overland steps away from my home. Is he right? I can't seem to find any information about simulation distance. Thank you.

Gameplay questions / Trading troubles

So I wanted to trade for a Pot from a village. They liked me because I'd previously recovered a spear for a wounded adventurer there. I'd also traded some food with them before I think.

Anyway, I had picked up the Pot and offered a Rough Shortsword which they agreed to. I canceled that trade and picked up an Elk Hide. I could not negotiate a trade for both items so I put the hide back. After that, they still believed I was trading for the Hide and the Pot. I then put the Pot back, but they still thought I was trading for both items.

I then picked up a Wooden Tub, and they thought I was trading for all 3 items. When I put the Tub back, they recognized that I'd returned the Tub but not the Pot or Hide.

I played around with various things and moving stuff around but could not get rid of the Pot and Hide trade requirement. I finally tried leaving the village without any items and they yelled at me not to leave without paying. This finally lead to a dialog option that I could not afford to pay and they should take the items back. This worked, and I was allowed to leave, but after that they are annoyed with me.

I went back to try and buy the Pot again, but now I get no dialog to trade when I pick it up. However, if I try to leave the village with it on me, they yell at me to pay. But I can't pay because when I talk to them they just tell me to pick things up, and don't recognize that I've already picked it up.

So does anyone have suggestions as to what I did wrong here? At this point, is there a way for me to maybe sneak into the village at night a steal it without angering them further?

Thank you
