RotC donation suggestion

When placing a salvage beacon, would it be possible to have an option to choose whether to send loot to a settlement workshop or to donate all loot to an RotC city?
 
I believe this is already a planned feature for an upcoming update. Eventually, however, Salvage Beacons will be fully integrated into Sim Settlements itself.
 
Looking forward to this patch he mentioned. A new game awaits. And a big thanks for all the works King!

Can you point to the source of this being a planned feature? I'd like to add that to the support teams list of info if it can be confirmed.

I don't mean the SS integration, that's a known planned feature, I meant the idea of the Beacons dumping the loot into the RotC donations box

I'm pretty sure I heard Kinggath mention it in one of the most recent videos. He said that although he eventually intends to incorporate Salvage Beacons into Sim Settlements, that might be a while and so in the meantime he'll release an update to Salvage Beacons so you can choose to send items straight to the donation box.

I might have misunderstood. You could try watching the videos or try and ask the man himself, I guess.
 
That'd be great.
On the side note some people reported that donating too much stuff could cause issues like CTD, just saying. Hoping for the best.
 
Decided to delay this. Not only do I need to focus on bug fixes for SS, but my old code for Salvage Beacons needs to be rewritten quite a bit to allow the donation option cleanly.

I'm mostly worried that you're going to burn yourself out. When you said "this week", I was thinking , "Surely not. He's only human, right? ... right?"

I just hope you have the kind of personality that cannot abide an unfinished list and cannot live with himself until everything is neatly checked off. I know people like that, and you can torment them by just creating an arbitrary list and leaving it half finished. To be honest, it seems like a terrible existence, but those people get stuff done for the rest of us, so I've got to appreciate and admire them. Are you that type of person? I'm not. Once I figure out how to do something, I usually lose interest in actually doing it.

Anyway, carry on being human ... y'know, unless you're a synth.
 
Ha - that's fairly accurate. I don't like leaving things with my name on them unfinished or broken. Though I'm also a family guy now, so I do have limits.
 
I'll second this, he's actually a synth that doesn't need sleep too.
 
With the amount of attention you'll be giving Salvage Beacons in the near future, will you be adding a salvage beacon job plot? If so, would you consider making an interior and exterior plot?
 
Hi Kinggath! I want to thank you and the team for all of your work, and of course this sweet update.
As TheDroidlsMissing has said, do you have any plan to make a new plot containing the Salvage Beacon desk so that we don't have to build it manually as it's the sole purpose of your mod ROTC? I mean is there any update in integrating this mod to SS? I see it's in your to-do list and now that you've said you'll release normal patches (and as you're a synth :D).
