    Quest "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" progresses without doing anything

    Just saw this today. Actually, you should be able to complete it by going to the Institute. I haven't confirmed it, but I know I included in the design notes for there to be an archive room there that could be used as a secret backdoor option. As far as I know, that should have made it into the...

    Community Feedback Request: What SS2 content is the most (in-universe) newsworthy?

    Some really good suggestions here. What we're mainly looking for right now is things in the way of quests that would make good articles, and maybe NPCs that people think deserve being spotlighted. To give an example without giving away too much, there's always been an article for clearing...

    Community Feedback Request: What SS2 content is the most (in-universe) newsworthy?

    This is something Piper seems to already have covered, but who knows.

    Community Feedback Request: What SS2 content is the most (in-universe) newsworthy?

    Hello everybody, Kefke here from the Sim Settlements writing team, As a lot of you probably know, the "New Bugle" newspaper plot was originally made for Sim Settlements 1, and like a lot of content, migrated up to Sim Settlements 2. As a result, while the articles the paper publishes cover a...

    Unable to Produce Food

    While I can't say that this is the cause, I was able to determine that by turning off Agricultural Water Requirements and then remaking all of my farms, they started producing food again. Still doesn't explain the unpayable caps, but it at least got everything working. Apparently, that setting...

    Unable to Produce Food

    On my current save, I built my initial settlement at Red Rocket. Things were going well initially, until I left to do a few missions, and returned after several hours of gameplay to find that my settlement's food production was at zero, though strangely still green. In build mode, the plots said...

    interor plot snapping

    Just going to confirm OP's issue. Interior plots are extremely wonky and tempermental, and pretty much never work for their intended purpose without something like Place Everywhere to force them to.

    Video Playlist of the Chapter One Quest Line Complete!

    I believe she got all of Gremlin and Archon's quests.

    Video Playlist of the Chapter One Quest Line Complete!

    As it happens, the writer was me! And thank you very much! (I also wrote Archon's quests, as it happens.)

    What will we end up needing our settlements for?

    So, I occasionally look to see if anyone's talking about characters I wrote, and I suspect I know who you mean. To start off with, my mea culpa. When I wrote her, I thought that I remembered the Followers having a presence in Fallout 3, which would have made it reasonable that she came East...

    What are the undocumented requirements for plot upgrades and technology upgrades?

    That's more or less the size of it, yeah.

    Visitors to Longfellow's Cabin

    Interesting tidbit - The original design docs for the quest actually called for the LPP to be a useless McGuffin. You'd find a broken one, hand it over to Gremlin, and that would be it. Having a firing version in the game is something I wasn't even told about.

    Change location of ASAMs in inventory

    Unless I'm mistaken, they are classed as Junk due to technical limitations.

    Standardize customization

    If there is a way to change defaults, I don't know about it either. But I'd like to, so that I can make everything default to concrete foundations but farms (dirt), and make the default power poles for everything but residential (so they can get some sleep) into lamp posts.

    Hub of the Problem? More like Basement of Confusion!

    Guys, I appreciate that this topic has generated discussion, but please put your bug reports in the Questions & Help section so that the appropriate people can see them. Also, once again, if you agree with the suggestion, don't forget to click the upvote button to the side of the opening post.

    West Everret Suggestion

    I find that ferals carry chalk with decent regularity.

    Early Martial plots

    So far as I'm aware, that's intentional progression, though. Kinggath has said in the past that his envisioned progression involves using Vanilla elements at first and not having access to all your resources, and adjusting what's in your settlement over time to meet its needs. For not having...

    ASAMs and junk

    They're used as a requirement for constructing things in build mode. So far as I know, that means that they have to be Junk items.

    Alien Invasion in the storyline.

    It's really only the one audio log, and that log is inconclusive. Plus with the mute audio, it could be that they had meant to remove those lines, and the subtitles still being there was a mistake. By itself, I wouldn't call it compelling (heck, even that video thinks its unlikely, and agrees...

    Options for the Comms Plot

    Let me just throw in another option here. Borrowing from Fallout Shelter, "Entertainment Mode", where the plot switches from recruiting settlers to serving as a local radio station and providing some happiness to the citizens.
