Multi SPECIAL stat bonus for settlers working plots

[cbrgamer2]

I was thinking that the plot bonus settlers get from SPECIAL stats should be a little more spread (kind of like some skills were in old fallout games).
For example, industry should get a bonus from Strength AND Endurance (averaged out).
Just a thought starter.

I suppose Perception has always felt intuitively more linked to Martial plots than to water, for me anyway, so I could see defense getting something similar from Perception and Agility. Then again, I also understand the simplicity of one SPECIAL stat to one job.

Caravaneers get bonuses from Strength and Endurance when it comes to salvage runs, as well as Perception and Luck when it comes to discoveries, and Mayors get bonuses from Charisma and Luck in terms of rolling higher stats on new settlers, so it's notionally possible

I'm not sure how possible it is to "backfill" that sort of thing into Plots, but kinggath did mention in the most recent livestream that HQ will eventually have something resembling a 'dual-stat' functionality (where you can make two of a worker's stats count for how much Energy they add to their Department) so maybe...

Wait, there's actually stats that cover salvage runs and the mayor thing too? Huh, guess it makes sense to make a highly trained "salvage" settlement, then. This is why I really like Sim Settlements, I'm having to sort of plan out my settlement locations and uses and settlers.

Yeah, I really like turning Stodge's people into that and setting them up at Taffington Boathouse as that can reach a lot of salvage locations. I typically use Lashes as the Caravaneer because she has pretty balanced stats and I get Stodge to be the Mayor while also having him do Charisma training. They pull in really good hauls and get lots of discoveries.
