The Truffle won’t spawn if the house is not located in a Surface Glowing Mushroom biome with Hardmode active, or if there are not enough houses available for other NPCs, and having too much Corruption or Crimson beneath the house can also invalidate the housing. To increase the chances of the Truffle spawning, it’s essential to create a safe surface Glowing Mushroom biome, either by carving out a area in the Crimson/Corruption or building one above the surface or on an ocean.
