Turning it to normal mode made the game work. I recommend any of the non-survival difficulties anyway because there have been several times I had to revert to an older save because one of the quests broke on me (Vault Tec HQ) and some of the plot buildings bugged out during one of the tutorials.

Nah, I just saw that earlier while I was looking for mods to include with SS2 and that popped up in the general mods list. I knew once I saw it that it would end up here. Reminds me of the thread title for (I think?) Stalker: "I love my gun. That ain't oil." marshmallow creep fucked around with this message at 06:26 on Nov 10, 2020 |

lol, I combined Be Exceptional, Weapon Overhauls All-in-One, SS2, and drat Apocalypse, and somehow taking just the first level of Scrounger has given me thousands of .38cal and hundreds of .50cal and other high level ammunition. Clearly something has gone wrong. This is why I've been using comprehensive stuff like Horizon as I've gotten older and just lost patience for building custom mod lists. I just want to play for once

Original Sim Settlements (plus Industrial Revolution, I thnk) plus the scavenger beacons or whatever (call your NPC to come pick up a container or stuff and take it back to your base), I ended up with multiple ammo factories and ridiculous amounts of ammo just accumulating. Water-baroning helps, of course, if you're regularly buying out all the ammo/scrap/materials with Atom's Finest Mostly-Pure Hydration. IIRC, I had the entire buildable area of the Sanctuary river filled with purifiers, at the end of my last run. (Had to make up for not getting the shitwater station down by the beached ship - the specific enemy I needed to kill didn''t spawn at the restaraunt/brewery. Seems it's a known bug, that the last enemy will sometimes pop at the construction site near the robotics plant, etc., and if you don't find and kill him, the recruitment mission stays locked. Couldn't even console-force it to complete.  )

Has anyone messed around with the caravan services in SS2? I assume it's like the IDEK's Logistics Station and set ups supply lines for you, right? Are the 2x2, 1x1, and interior plots basically the same thing? Finding information on the different buildings is hard.

Are the 2x2, 1x1, and interior plots basically the same thing? It's roughly like IDEK's Logistics station, though it doesn't seem to be quite as intelligent. They're municipal plots (either 2x2 or indoor), and they seem to connect to the nearest caravan post plot(s) available. If the info I've read off the Sim Settlements forums is correct, they don't actually connect a supply line until the plot hits level 2, but that's relatively easy. Also, later on in the questline you get access to salvage beacons (which work exactly like the standalone salvage beacons mod), and apparently THOSE only work if a nearby settlement has a caravan plot up and running. My biggest gripe with SS2 thus far is that the more advanced plots (especially municipal) are unlocked fairly far into the questline. I'd like the caravan post to be one of the earlier ones. I get why that's not a thing, but it's frustrating to basically have to run through the SS2 questline to get my supply network up and running.

I’m not into mods that try to turn these games into survival or Dark Souls games. It reworks death so it drops you off at a nearby settlement. The gimmick is your health bar is bigger but harder to refill casually, though if you die it's not game over-- just kicks you out of your current excursion. It does add some good challenge though and mixes up enemy weaknesses in interesting ways, and also rebalances the economy and loot so you don't leave every raider encounter with $5,000 in pristine weapons to flip. There are definitely times where you'll wipe some jokers, and there are times you'll say nope and skip a fight that looks like too much while you're heading somewhere. It's a good change of pace.

I also like that it makes enemies much weaker in the weak spot, so if you're good and careful you can kill things very quickly. Also yeah stuff isn't hyper lethal to you, but your health is a resource you want to be careful about spending. I would really describe it as a resource management game, you spend a lot of time thinking about whether you want to spend bullets and health doing something, and you want to collect resources to spend them on doing major areas. The collection focus also helps with getting rare materials to make better guns and build up your settlements which help to produce basic supplies for you and fast travel options. It's a surprisingly cohesive experience once it clicks. You're exploring to find stuff, you use stuff to beat obstacles and build up your power base, beating obstacles gets you rarer stuff which allows you to spend your resources more efficiently, building up your power base gives you a better jumping off point to explore from and automates basic supply gathering.

I think it wouldn't too bad if there wasn't a mandatory wait period. As it is after clearing Olivia you have to wait 2 days, then do the quest in Concord, and then wait another 2 days before you get the quest that unlocks the additional plot types. If they made it an option to skip the wait period through like dialogue options or something it would feel a lot better. Chronojam posted:It reworks death so it drops you off at a nearby settlement.

I haven't used it in forever, but G2M Workshop (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/17088) has a ton of oddball concrete parts, including at least a few that I think would fit what you are describing. The same length and width as the concrete wall sections, but some only as high as a flat floor piece, others a bit thicker.

Now the plots aren't appearing in the menu after I got the ASAM Edit 2: Issue solved completely through using a proper mod manager rather than the built-in mod downloader.

Glad you got it fixed. I'm not totally sure what was causing that particular problem for me. A lot of mods weren't working, and I checked my MO2 and one filepath was wrong. I fixed that and the broken mods started work, but nothing would make that dude show up until I started a new game.

I had the same problem as yall, updated frameworks, no mod conflicts, updated mod, tried restarting the game, cleaning with resave, disabling all other mods etc. In the end it turned out to be a load order issue, the load order I was seeing in MO2 wasnt real, I checked in the mods tab in the game itself and it was wrong there, fixed that and it worked next time I rebuilt the broadcast tower.

and now the needs HUD has disappeared completely.

Is there a mod that prevents radiant quests from sending me back to areas I've already cleared? I hate the make work feel of killing enemies I just killed and unlocking the same locks etc. I don't love the radiant quests in general but I don't really hate them either - but the way the game is currently set up I'm like afraid to explore new areas in case I just get sent back to them again later

This might be common knowledge, but for whatever verisimilitude the O.U.C.H. mod adds to combat, it also adds an extreme flash / bloom / screen shake effect when the player is affected by AoE attacks. It was presumably introduced to make fighting glowing ghouls harder, but in practice it triggers for every field effect in the game, including those produced by robot companions that you build.

What's the threads opinions on the best option to replace all the pipe weapon's? I'm gonna do another playthrough of four after I'm finished with NV, without some settlement wrecking my saves, but I'm really not feeling seeing a buncha trash guns in the world.

I also find that it helps to add in weapons like the Schofield No. 2, Mauser (Chinese pistol), N99 10mm pistol, 10mm SMG, trench shotgun, etc. These spawn on raiders too, and it gives them more weapon variety and makes them worth looting sometimes without being a huge jump in power.
