Xbox Incorrectly Says Not Enough Free Memory
Issue: Xbox says there is not enough free memory to download a mod when there actually is.
Kinggath: ""It has something to do with the Xbox not actually clearing the memory. Try all the steps described in these posts: https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/164593-fallout-4/74309535
- Basically, you'll want to favorite all of your mods so you can quickly re-download them all, then reset the reserved space on your xbox. I've never done this before, but maybe someone else here has and can tell you the exact :steps. All I know, is that it's a common xbox problem, so the fix should be relatively painless."

Advanced Industrial Plots Do Not Output Benefits With Dynamic Needs Off
Issue: Advanced Industrial Plots do not provide benefits they should, with Dynamic Needs turned off.
Kinggath: "This happens when Dynamic Needs are turned off. I have a potential solution for the future, for now though, if you enable Dynamic Needs and refresh the plot, the power [or any other Advanced Industrial plot resource] should come back."

Pipboy Settlement Data Screen Shows Incorrect Information
Issue: When looking at the Settlement Data screen on the Pipboy, the information displayed is incorrect.
Kinggath: "The pipboy data is a vanilla issue. I've investigated a solution, but it's pretty much going to require redesigning the pipboy flash files and the workshop scripts - which I'm trying to avoid with Sim Settlements (I want to keep compatibility up by not editing vanilla records/scripts in the mod)."

Plot Not Completing building
Issue: Plots stop construction before completion. Usually stops or freezes at the scaffolding stage of construction.
Kinggath: "Occasionally the game will fail to start the timer correctly. Once the scaffolding appears, a building should take less than a minute to build (unless you have Realistic Build Times on). So if you run into this, try using the Refresh Plot option on the sensor menu to see if it builds. If it continues to not build, you may want to scrap it and try building it again.
If even that doesn't work, please report it here Bug Reports so we can try and find out what is conflicting."

Refresh Local Plots Option Stops Before Completion
Issue: After starting the Refresh Local Plots tool, the refreshing messages stop, but you get a warning not to leave until completion.
Kinggath: "While the Refresh Local Plots option warns you not to leave, if it appears to get stuck, you should ignore the warning and leave anyway. Getting the cell to unload (by traveling a good distance away from it), should cause the refresh to continue. Once the refresh messages resume, return to the settlement.
You may have scaling or rotation issues on any plots that refreshed during the brief period you were away. Simply run the Refresh Plot option on the sensor menu for those and it should clear them up."
