== Notes ==
* The Steampunker's move-in requirements do not expressly require a world to be in Hardmode. Summoning and defeating a mechanical boss in a pre-Hardmode world will allow the Steampunker to move in, though this can only be legitimately achieved by carrying over resources from an existing Hardmode world.
** If summoned into a pre-Hardmode world this way, the Steampunker will not sell Cogs or the Steampunk Minecart until Hardmode has been attained in the given world.
** The Steampunker being a starting NPC in CelebrationMK10 worlds means that it is possible to get most mechanical items legitimately in a pre-Hardmode world without transferring them from a Hardmode world, but cannot be used to obtain the Jetpack, or Teleporters in CelebrationMK10 worlds.
* Re-defeating the Eye of Cthulhu and Eater of Worlds/Brain of Cthulhu may be necessary to buy the Steampunk Boiler after the Steampunker arrives.
* The Steampunker does not sell Dark Blue Solution if moved to the Glowing Mushroom biome. It is sold by the Truffle instead.
*While living on a floating island Hallow biome, if it is too close to space the Steampunker might not sell blue solution, most noticeable in the CelebrationMK10 world.
