Do you believe you might include options in the future for individual players to simply reduce the # of visitors or brahmin that show up at once in a settlement? I was visiting Sanctuary and it seems like 1/2 the people are visitors (10 at least were visitors) and I have a metric tonne of brahmin. I don't want them gone, but I would like an option in the holotape to restrict them to 3 or 5 each for example.

I completely respect Ain't Much's request/comment and appreciate the context he uses, "I don't want them gone".

Just, I am at the other end of the spectrum. I REALLY like all the visitors. So, no request other than just to comment - please, I don't want them gone either. On this, we agree.

Ain't Much - Liked! You articulated your request very well giving room for folks who in some ways don't have the exact same opinion. I really do like them, all of them, a lot.

I do see how an option could be a way to make both groups and all their variations grateful.

Maybe have a special class of visitor NPCs with no AI? Just plop them in a chair or marker, etc and don't have them wander around aimlessly. They end up standing around in someone's bedroom half the time.

Hey, need more info about the holotape option for Alchemy. Where do I find the option to turn off brahmin recruitment as mentioned in the patch notes? I went item by item in the holotape and missed it somehow. Where do I find it?

It's in the Robco holotape; you can make one at any chemistry station.

Can you add a Cancel option to this menu please? Once you click on the Wizard it sort of forces you to update a lot of settings that you might have not wanted to update.
