I'm not quite sure what could cause this, but:

Any idea? Have I missed an upgrade? Does this not play well with the latest SS And SS:IR
 
Hm! Now that you mention it - I did start a new playthrough and didn't check after answering the questions at the start! I will - tomorrow - after work. ;) That might be THE pointer what is going on (as you can see, it's only my second settlement. Survival + unbogus mods + with no sneak heavy weapon pa build at low levels... *sigh* But fun!).
 
@JtBryant - I haven't tested this yet, but I put code to support something you might wish to try out (if you do, let me know the results). If you create a Plot Resource modifier object and remove the kgSIM_PlotRatingModifier keyword from it, it should work even with Dynamic Needs off.

As long as that works, we'll be able to split our resources: a base amount for all players without that keyword, and then the bonus amount for players using Dynamic Needs that keep that keyword. So let's say your power station added 10 power and you wanted to only give 4 power for non-dynamic needs players, you'd create a +4 power modifier object without the keyword, and a +6 with the keyword. These two new objects would replace your previous +10 object.

Again, I haven't had a chance to test it yet, but it's in the code base as of 2.0.5. I might have to tweak and give a new keyword for the base modifiers.
 
Just to report: Yes, one of my answers must have turned off dynamic needs - I would not expect that to disable ressource generation, but then again: I prefer it to be on, anyways. Makes the settlements feel more like they require a bit of 'guidance'. :D

That was just an oversight in the initial design of Sim Settlements - I never imagined anyone using it to PROVIDE resources. All of the Industrial Revolution buildings suffer from the same problem atm, if Dynamic Needs are off: most of the positives as well as the negatives are removed.
