There should be a mod to make vegetable oil at the cooking station. This seems obvious.

LumberingTroll posted:As for damage, it might feel that way at low level, but later in the game its going to take you a long time to kill stuff, as things get higher level they get a lot more HP. I'm hoping this makes taking weapon based perks more necessary, or something. Right now, I'm Codsworth's companion because he's doing the bulk of the work. The hard part is getting a shot in so I get the exp for the kill, because you don't get exp for companion kills in this game for some reason.

Kea posted:I will see if I can find the references for the bramble bushes (I think they are just called brambles) with a bit of luck I should be able to get rid of them in any settlements where they are endemic. Is it just Sanctuary? Are they actually objects, or are they tied to the engine's grass system? If it's the latter, we're all pretty much out of luck until GECK time and even then it'd probably be a thing that would be hard or impossible to modify on the fly.

It's kind of annoying that settlements don't clean themselves up more when the mechanic already exists in the game. After you reclaim the Minutemen fort, all the mirelurk poo poo gets cleaned out the next time you revisit it (not sure if it's after an ingame day or just whenever you leave the cell). Hopefully that means a similar mechanic could be implemented for other settlements in a mod someday.

Any chance modders will be able to port mods from Skyrim with a few tweaks to the code? Some stuff like Civil War and Better Dragons would be sweet also magic and swords

Hilariously for me the Castle retained a big glob of Mirelurk goo from the queen which stuck around permanently. I eventually just disabled it via console because it was right in front of my bar's entrance which can't be good for business. Also a corpse of one of the Minutemen stuck around but I just stripped him naked and dumped him over the wall as a warning or whatever. He's still there 30ish levels later.

'Indoor' cells reset themselves, or spawn different version to remove or change things. This is why the family fallout in the middle of Diamond City is it's own unique instance and how the Vault 81 room goes from dusty closet to home. I don't think it's possible in outdoor areas without changing the entire grid and even if it were, it's well beyond the tools available at the moment.

Would it be a bad idea to use both Arbitration and Iron Rose's Weapon Damage Overhaul mods? I figure they don't conflict, but would the changes to ammo capacity/damage be too much with the 2.5x/5x damage multipliers?

Spec'd for Commando but I got the Deliverance pistol and I'm still wrecking enemies. I get one hit pretty often tho, usually from hunting rifles or combat rifles.

This is why the family fallout in the middle of Diamond City is it's own unique instance and how the Vault 81 room goes from dusty closet to home. That's a a rather poor and somewhat inaccurate description of what is going on behind the scenes. By default, every cell will reset after being left alone for a period of time, including outdoor cells. The usual numbers are either 3 days or 3 weeks depending on the area and whether or not it's been 'cleared', but I might be mistaken (usually I don't worry about it). When a reset is triggered, objects that were moved are returned to their original positions, consumables like food respawn, corpses are deleted, containers reset, etc. Whoever is designing the level can also flag areas and objects to skip most of the normal cleanup process. This is how you have your personal safe storage in otherwise unsafe areas, for example. Corpses are usually removed as part of a cell reset, but sometimes it's important they remain - maybe the player walked in the door and noped back out before finding the vital quest clue on the corpse, or walked by the area without stepping into the ruined building where your background exposition set piece is. So you flag the corpse to ignore resets, and the corpse will persist for the player to find later. "Changing" areas is extremely simple, though possibly tedious. The engine allows for hidden objects - that is to say, objects that exist, but are not rendered and are otherwise non-corporeal. When cleaning up the Mirelurk crap around The Castle, it's basically flipping a switch to hide everything. Being assigned a room in Vault 81 is toggling the visibility of the old closet and swapping in the bedroom stuff at the same time. It's the difference between using 'disable' and 'markfordelete': one command tells the engine to stop rendering this object, while the other tells the engine to remove this object from existence permanently. The short of it though is that any instance where something persists and never gets cleaned up, it's because someone at Bethesda was negligent or decided that's how it should be, sometimes both. It makes sense that the former residents of Covenant stick around because there's a quest that involves them, but they obviously serve no further purpose after the quest is completed; unfortunately, there does not appear to be any scripts in place to remove that quest flag so that their bodies would be removed during the regular cleanup cycle.

I don't know why you'd want to spend a whole levelup on just 5% more damage though. That's an incredibly trivial amount by itself.

Getting caught up on this thread and didn't see anyone mentioning what is one of my favorite 'that poo poo is annoying' fixes we always get in these early days of modding. Faster Terminal Displays http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/937/ It does what it says on the tin. Speeds up the rate the game throws text up on terminals, making using them much more snappy and responsive. In the continued spirit of fixing annoying niggles, I just put together a mod that removes Pipe weapons from safes and containers that are labeled 'Prewar' in the game files. Pre War Safes http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/3306 I mean, why the gently caress is the chief of police or the local businessman storing some cobbled together pipe weapon in his locked safe from before the war rather than a proper store bought weapon?

Removing the houses is definately possible, the issue right now is there's such limited editors that It cant be seamlessly integrated into the game. Basically making a mod that when put in your load order just flat out removes them is easy, making it an option ingame is not.

I'd actually be okay with the houses just disappearing and leaving all their scrapable loot just floating there. It'd be an ugly hack of a thing for sure. But it'd be nice to just have all those empty foundations to work with.

Simple how? It looks like there's very early FO4 support for NifSkope, whatever that means, and a Larger Revolutionary Swords mod, meaning it must be possible somehow, but I don't know where to start beyond fiddling with FO4Edit parameters right now.
