I read the summons for Plot Builders and I flung myself into the tutorials... and bounced off. Now I'm rubbing my aching head and knuckling down to get some work done.
I'd like the Addon Pack to be Minuteman themed and have a few newbie questions and requests for guidance.
Minimum to release an Addon Pack? I have a lot of things in mind, but I also don't have the heap tons of time I'd like to get it done as quickly as I'd like. Is it OK to release an Addon Pack with say, 3 or 4 plots? I'm working on a Minutemen multi-resident metal barracks right now. I have the level 3 SCOL done but haven't started past that. I was thinking of releasing with:
Reusing existing Addon Plots is a thing? No? There are some good Minutemen Artillery Martial plots that if not in the main SS mods I'd like to include in my Addon. This way if a newbie just wants a Minutemen style Sim Settlement, they would have access to these Artillery plots.
Related question: If someone else lets me put their plot in my Addon, would it be like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters? (hint: that was a bad thing... until it was a good thing actually. Bad analogy).
Multiple contributors? Is it possible to have people make a plot and have it incorporated into someone else's mod? Sorta like the previous question, but this would be a new plot. For example, someone makes a Minutemen Interior Residential plot and that gets rolled into my MM Addon (or I offer up my plots to someone else who's faster than I).
Thanks for entertaining a newb. I'm slow, but I'm working on getting the first building done. Still.

- Exterior Res: Metal Barracks with 1 settler at lvl 1, 3 settlers at level 2, and 5 at level 3 (I love how it looks, just gotta put in the lights and scripts and stuff).
- Exterior Rec: Hallowed Ground cemetery that grows in fancy as it levels up. Provides happiness in the form of determination and pride. I want to spawn an Orphan at level 2 that hangs around the cemetery.
- Interior Industrial: Tato Masher Rations that makes, you guessed it, InstaMash for the trooper on the go!
