I seem to have a bug where NPCs that have previously arrived (Merchant, Nurse, Demolitionist, etc) no longer can spawn into a "house" because "This housing is not suitable." even though it meets all the requirements. Each "house" is 5 tiles high by 7 tiles wide excluding ceiling, floor and walls, and has at least 1 torch, 1 chair (comfort item) and 1 table (flat surface). I have placed the background and there are no cracks. This is a constant issue with me and it's impacting game playability. The Eye of Cthulu is prevented from spawning because I no longer have 3 NPCs (the Merchant and Demolitionist died during a Blood Moon). The other requirements I have met for the Eye of Cthulu to spawn are: over 200 health and over 10 defense.

Note: I'm playing on PS3.
