Hi all
I would like to start a discussion about the mechanics of a susccesful settlement. Let me explain something first. Since I’ve played the main story 3 times I’m not doing it now but focusing on SS, while doing some side quests. I can say therefore I’m playing SS instead of fallout. Am I wrong doing it? Maybe...
In order to to be as realistic and challenging as possible I turned all the needs on. I dont see any other way from immersive point of view.
I’m trying different configurations in my settlements. What I mean by that is every town has a different ratio of all the available plots and what I found out is that building residential plots is pretty pointless. I know that how? Well, the only settlement that makes any profit is Sanctuary where all the beds are placed in the existing buildings. Every other place keeps creating deficit. I don’t want to raise taxes as I suspect it slows down the progress of highly taxed plots (correct me if I’m wrong).
I may be overestimating the SS and its value and yes I know that the fundamental reason for it is to make your playthorugh of F4 easier but this mod surely looks quite sofisticated to me and it could be considered a seperate experience/game in my humble opinion.
Are any of you guys is playing the way I am? I’m very interested in other problems/solutions. Lets chat!
