The habit of settlers to all spawn in a clump after fast traveling might have something do do with resource count weirdness. Social hour is over get back to work dammit.  Edit: much better

HOLY CRAP! I just learned you can turn generators on and off and every time you do they make a slightly different sound so you can make them quiet by finding a better quieter sound!

Well this sucks, I took my power armour off to do the Silver Shroud questline in the room you start it in and now the door to the room is closed and [INACCESSIBLE]. Is there a noclip console command or something I can use to get it back or do I have to upgrade a new suit from scratch?

Kimmalah posted:That's referring to stuff in your workbench used for crafting like purified water and harvested crops, not the "Food" and "Water" stats for each of your settlements (which is what I assumed you were talking about). So if you have a bunch of corn in your workbench it will show up at another linked settlement for you to craft with, but that other settlement will still have 0 Food if you don't plant anything there. No, nothing you put in a workbench will actually show up in another settlements workbench even if you have local leader. When you go to craft, it will draw from every item stored in every workbench connected by a trade route, but it will not show the item and won't let you pull it out. Trade routes do share the food and water stats, it's not reflected by the actual numbers but if you have a settlement with 15 excess water and a linked settlement with 15 settlers and no water then the stat will say 0 water but will be yellow instead of red and no one will complain about not having any.

You might need to do a certain optional objective that will be really obvious.

For the settlement size thing, yeah you can do the workshop placing/dropping/storing thing OR you can just dump a load of lovely pipe pistols or whatever on the ground and scrap them and your size meter will just skip happily to the left.

Is THAT what that stupid size bar means? It's basically a soft memory limit, and you just manipulate it by dropped and picking up a bunch of items? Huh. I haven't quite got to the point where I'd need to do that with any of my settlements, but I've been wanting to beef up the castle more...I'll keep that in mind.

I just meant you can craft with it, not necessarily that it will literally be in the bench when you look. Unless you're trying to transfer an item into your personal inventory it doesn't really matter. The other thing I didn't know and seems like it really ought to be fixed. Of course after the first few settlements I just kind of gave up worrying about building settlements, made Sanctuary my home base and left the rest to the wasteland.

Just bought Home Plate in Diamond City and man was that a disappointment. 2000 caps down the drain for a house with no crafting abilities and a massive loading time if I ever step outside. Feels like a pointless leftover from FO3 / New Vegas when I can just pick a settlement to build my Palace of Junk for the cost of building materials (i.e. free). Why even make the decision to limit crafting tables?

Finally found a use for the ripper - the second you see a ghoul, hold it out in front of you and they'll run right into it. If they don't die instantly you'll take off several limbs in the process. Ghouls can't even touch me now.

This thread is loving huge so I don't know if it's been mentioned: Settlement machine gun turrets actually have levels of sorts. When you try building one, turn it and zoom in on it, it'll have it's MK number painted on the side. It defaults to 1, but if you cancel the build, then reselect it, the number may go up. The higher the MK, the more powerful the turret will be but it costs the same as building a normal turret. Supposedly the location of the settlement determines how high the number goes, the highest I've seen being 7 on Spectacle Island. At MK. 7, the turret is equipped with incendiary explosive rounds and is pretty great.

You should be able to build higher level turrets at a certain player level or gated behind a high ranking perk. They can even cost an arm and a leg (admittedly, those come cheap in the Wasteland). If I want to create a killing box that minces super mutant overlords in under a second, I drat well should be able to.

Found the time to update Full Dialogue Interface now that finals are over. The new version, Beta8, is a substantial update that not only brings the files up to standard with FO4 v1.2 but also adds a number of new features. To copy shamelessly from the changelog: * Rebuilt .strings files for all languages from the ground up to update them to the newest 1.2 ESM. * Integrated "No Brackets" and "Brackets/Numbers but No Shadow" interface layouts for all non-English versions. * Re-expanded dialogue options that had to be truncated in previous versions. This change applies to all languages. * Added substantially more tonal notes for when the player is lying or bluffing. This change applies to all languages. * Added tonal notes for attacking the person you're talking to and for when the player pays a fee. The former has been extensively vetted to prevent confusion. These changes apply to all languages. * Added tonal notes to help clarify when the player is giving or showing something to their conversation partner, such as showing Knight Rylan's holotags or delivering Virgil's letter. This change applies to all languages. Previously, the dialogue option would read something like "I found this" without actually saying what you're showing. * Added tonal notes for speaking as the Silver Shroud during the quest of the same name. This change applies to all languages. * Rounded up the rest of the still-paraphrased lines in non-English versions. Coupled with Beta 7's similar fixes for the English version, this means that as many lines as possible have been expanded across all languages. * Corrected some minor typographical errors present in the vanilla .strings files (mostly missing periods at the end of sentences). English version only. * Significantly lowered the size of the NMM installer, thanks to the work of ZeroByDivide. * Updated the documentation for the Polish version. The Chinese documentation still needs updating, mind. * Caught a few extra instances of the player bribing someone without the dialogue option specifying how much you were paying. This change applies to all languages.

I think that settlement defences should be gimmicks based on gated perks - so if you're a great doctor you can build syringer turrets, or railway rifles if you're in the railway, bigger institute laser cannons manned by synths, broadside cannons and so on. And traps should be better because at the moment they're a joke in terms of defence. Also, the spawn zones for attacks should be marked like every turret defence game ever.
