Feedback about SS2 in survival

[Lemnear]

As expected when I started this survival play it was less about surviving and all about inventory management.

Thankfully ASAMs are still 0 weigh.
However being tagged as junk is really annoying. I have to constantly pull them back out after dropping off junk so I have them on me when moving to a new settlement.
Please remove the junk flag of ASAM again.

Resource Scanners are too heavy for what they offer. Outside the quest I'd never carry one of those with me just to have settlers fill up the already overflowing virtual storage. Maybe I should use them to let them carry looted gear for me, but I wouldn't trust pipe weapons to those guys, let alone some legendaries.
If you changed them to dump materials for player use it'd be more worth lugging them around.

Vitomatic is by far the most annoying thing in SS2. A constant 8 pound penalty you practically have to lug around everywhere in case you need to find a skilled settler.
Make the Vitomatic a quest item you give to Jake and he'll upgrade your PipBoy to scan settlers, indicated by a perk. It can already read your own SPECIAL so it's not far fetched to say it now can read others.

Yeah this one hurts. At least in my game I modded the weight down to 2 lbs, but you do also have the option of crafting additional Vitomatics and leaving them at your main settlements.

I don't play survival and I agree with all of this. ASAMs should not be junk. When I get to a settlement or my player home I dump my junk and do not look through it. When I found out those were labeled as junk i found about 50 I'd thrown in the work bench.

The resource scanners, ehh it's ok for the time i have it. but I wanna dump it off right away. While I don't play survival, I do have survival healing and weight. Like a few other people, I dumped the vitomatic in a drawer when I got back to my settlement. Figured it was a macguffin for a later quest and that the stuff it did could be done in the pipboy (if it cannot be done in the pip boy it should be).
