FAQs

Why are excess settlement resources not shared between settlements for plot upgrade purposes?

Kinggath: "That's in my long term plans. The system Bethesda uses for sharing resources for happiness is really awkward - it literally moves pieces of food and water out of the workbenches to hit the daily needs, which won't work for Sim Settlement's calculations, so I have to come up with a good means of handling it that won't be a script hog."

Common Issues/Solutions

Common Problems

(Vanilla Game Bug) Vanilla Named Settlers Cannot Be Bought From When Working Commercial Plot

Issue: Vanilla named settlers do not have the vendor conversation option when assigned to a commercial plot.
Kinggath: "For me it's always one or the other, either I can't buy from them or I can no longer recruit them after they start their shop. Either way, this is a vanilla problem, so there's not a lot that can be done. For me, sleeping 24 hours and reassigning usually clears up the issue (but not always)."

Invisible Plots, Buildings Not Showing, and/or Plot Stops at Construction Stage

Issue: Plot buildings are invisible, or stop building at the construction stage.
Solution:
  1. Interact with the Plot ASAM Sensor, and select Refresh Plot.
  2. Manually install Sim Settlements and Industrial Revolution.
    1. Manual Installation Help Video

Known Issues / Unsolved

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."

(Xbox) Old Plot Structures Reappear In New Plot at Same Location

Issue: After scrapping a plot and building a new plot in the same location, The old plot appears inside the new plot and cannot be demolished.
Kinggath: "This is an unfortunate common issue on Xbox, the scripts will fall behind and start building two structures at once. First try using the Refresh Plot option on the ASAM Sensor menu - that might resolve it completely.
If not, I put out a mod called Sim Settlement Helper, install that - you'll then be able to scrap all of the stuff on top of the plot. After you've scrapped everything but the plot itself, refresh the plot via the sensor again, :and the correct stuff should appear."
To use Sim Settlement Helper:
1. Download and Install Sim Settlement Helper mod. Nexus: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/23209/?, Xbox: https://bethesda.net/en/mods/fallout4/mod-detail/4012831
2. Scrap any floating clutter that has not been removed.
3. Exit Game and Uninstall Sim Settlement Helper.

Floating Clutter After Scrapping/Moving/Storing Plot

Issue: Items of clutter floating in the location a plot used to be after scrapping, moving, or storing the plot.
Kinggath: "It can sometimes just take a long time to clean up if your save file scripts are getting backed up. Otherwise, you can download the mod Sim Settlement Helper, which will make everything the mod creates scrapable."
To use Sim Settlement Helper:
1. Download and Install Sim Settlement Helper mod. Nexus: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/23209/?, Xbox: https://bethesda.net/en/mods/fallout4/mod-detail/4012831
2. Scrap any floating clutter that has not been removed.

Settlers Will Not Use Upper Floors of Buildings

Issue: Settlers are not going to upper floors of buildings or Plots built on multi story scaffolding.
Vanilla Game Bug: Unfortunately, this is a problem with the game's AI. There is currently no fix to this behavior.
Kinggath: "spent many hours during early dev and couldn't reliably get them to use the upper floors"

Child Settlers Cannot Be Assigned Or Don't Do Anything In The Plot

Issue: Child settlers are not able to be assigned to a plot, or don't do any animations when assigned.
Kinggath: "Child settlers can now own Residential and Agricultural plots. Due to lack of animations available to the child settlers, they may never actually animate to the plot or use the objects on them. Additional plot types may be made available to them in the future if I find someone to provide more animation support for them (send me your animator friends!)."
