    Fallout 76

    Apparently it was on sale for Black Friday. Ticked me off a bit I admit, but on the other hand it means my BIL is getting a bonus game for Christmas so I guess that's good too. I'm enjoying 76 for what it is - a pretty world with some new quests and co-op mode. I especially like the co-op...

    Safe storage during city build?

    I sometimes go into the bunker and leave things there too.

    What are your essential mods?

    Why are these mods all women. What about loving male companions! /grumble

    Settlers Not Going To Bed

    That is really helpful info! I frequently drop agricultural plots directly behind the house and never figured out that that was what triggered my stuck in place issues.

    Settlement Ambush Kit! Thoughts?

    Are any of you who are using these also using Mod Organizer w/separate profiles? I noticed that in the workshop menus the section for these gives a lookup failure. I see the same with interacting with the CC dogs so I think it's an issue with CC and Mod Organizer.

    Scrap accumulation and city upgrades

    It may be the scripts stalled. Try going to one of the settlements in question, donating some scrap, and then standing around for a little while to give the scripts a chance to catch up. When I've had a settlement that isnt' upgrading doing that usually has it start in after I fasttravel...

    Scrap accumulation and city upgrades

    It should take from your workbench - but I think it only checks the local bench so maybe it's not seeing what it needs. I tend to send to the settlement using savage beacon since that goes straight to donation. I usually donate about 500 at a time of wood/steel/ceramic. If you...

    Toggle Settler Protection Status

    Hmm, have you added any settler-focused mods recently? I suspect there are more than a few that change mortal status. I've also had some luck in using Better Console - with that installed I can click on a settler while in the console to see the last mod that updated it. That might help find...

    Is it just me or did FO4 make the Brotherhood complete assholes?

    The closest game I ever came to finishing the main quest line, my save corrupted as soon as I entered the Institute. This time I have added several quest mods, including Project Valkyrie. With the latter you can end up in control of all four factions, so I triggered the Prydwen earlier than I...

    Toggle Settler Protection Status

    In the meantime, Better Settlers has that option. Or Unique NPS. /edit Actually I think I may have misread your post. Are you saying that they started protected, and at some point lost that protected status? If so, is it happening with all settlement, all settlers, or can you narrow it down...

    random menu

    Honestly, I'd uninstall and reinstall the mod, then test. It sounds like something is missing.

    Settlement Ambush Kit! Thoughts?

    I don't know about the other games, but I can confirm that it is the same currency for Fallout 4 and for Skyrim Special Edition.

    Assigning more the 6 farming to settler

    I'm not sure if this is related to what Scruff is seeing or not. I had left the settings at the defaults of 6 - but then last night I noticed that in Sanctuary, even though I had a 12 food agriculture plot, I was showing as having insufficient food production for 7 settlers. which suggests...

    Items never arive

    Apology appreciated! That's a huge issue with all the mod managers in my experience. I used to spend a ton of time cleaning up after NMM. With Mod Manager I went for profiles, which seems to minimize that, but absolutely doesn't eliminate it.

    Items never arive

    Kinggath is the mod author, not WoodFuzzy, so you are rudely yelling at someone who is trying to help. This version was released in March - when did you upgrade it, and was that before or after you put the beacon in the container? {I ask because this version was to fix a known issue} Related...

    Wasteland Venturers updates with 7 + 7 new buildings

    With so many buildings in one mod I really feel like I should do a run with just your mod enabled and random select. I'll never see more than a handful otherwise!

    Communications Station Assignment

    Depends on how frustrated I am :) If there is enough food/water to start and no industrial plot showing up yet I'll wait. Otherwise I tend to find a corner to drop one in and swap if one shows up later, but some of the small settlements have no obvious spare space. In that case I'll donate...

    Designer choice vendor shops.

    That's a setting you can flip though the wizard will default it based on how high you gave for system power. Optimized means some clutter and sound effects and such are left out to reduce performance impact. /edit Here's the FAQ which explains is much better than I did...

    Designer choice vendor shops.

    In my experience a lot of them are decorations, for sure the ones you show in Sanctuary are. You can tell if it's a sim settlement plot by whether or not it has the activator, which these don't, and if they are one of the vanilla stores you should be able to select the unit equivalent, though I...

    Is it just me or did FO4 make the Brotherhood complete assholes?

    I loathe them. I've made repeated attempts to play their storyline for completionist reasons and I just can't. Danse is the most tolerable of them all and he's completely patronizing. They are authoritarian jerks who are hoarding technology rather than helping. And they strongarm the...
