I REALLY wish there was some sort of pillar I could add to things like this.

It feels so weird thats just basically floating in the air with no support.

It would be amazing if there was a pillar tile that could connect to floors and you could link them multiple times to give the look of actual fucking structural integrity.

You don't need to build building for those stores though. I put them all on the side of the road with turrets around them and they're fine. Not only that, but I went through the entire game without buying weapons, gear or ammo. So I had no use for the caps they were bringing in. I love the idea of the settlements, but it's too shallow right now. There needs to be a reason to build them up.

Mostly by getting an idea, running with it, realizing the build mode is far to limited to actually do it justice, cutting back and trying to make it work the best you can, deleting the whole thing, starting over from scratch with a drastically simplified structure using the tools how bethesda intended them to be used rather than using any sort of creativity, spending another 3 hours building an abortion which only speaks to you of it's flaws and shortcomings.

My problem is another. Half the time, dogmeat is nowhere to be found, other times he'll be at his dog house. Same with another special trader npc you can send to your settlement.

I am planning on turning Spectacle Island into a small island town. But there is never enough concrete.

The freestanding lights need to be hooked directly up to a generator.

The ones that attach to walls/ceilings, they need to be in range of a power coupling attached to the wall/ceiling/floor, and that power coupling needs to be hooked up to a generator.

>what do you do with all that space? do you house the locals?
Not much, I've got a player home on the third floor and a bunch of chairs set up for people to sit down in but most of it is just lookout posts.

Most of the space is used by my guards who wonder around the place going from post to post. You've got a pretty commanding view from the top so it's mostly a defensive structure.

I did this by accident, by getting the notification to go assist an attack and then not responding in enough time. It auto failed on me and when I went to check it out like two settlers were dead and my turrets/generators were busted, I had to repair them to get them back in working order. Otherwise nothing really happened, I built a new beacon to attract some new people and built some more turrets.

Basically some of your shit gets fucked up and you have to repair it via the building menu.

>>317414571
That's right, I always forget about Raider PA because it's horrendously ugly and I never bother to use it.

Also, the Raider PA reveals an awkward plothole/retcon/whatever you want to call it. The NCR, a trained military organization couldn't get PA to work properly without tearing it down to be just suits of steel armor, but fuckface Raiders can use it. It's just odd.

>>
>>317414996
Of course that's strange too, why would you think because I said one thing is weird I don't think the other thing is weird? Bethesda did some very good things and some very bad things with PA.

Also, you should know Fallout 3 is the first game in the series that requires PA training.

I like the PA. I do dislike the Fusion Core mechanic. Everyone is walking around 24/7 in fucking PA and I have to pop in new cores like a chump. But it could be worse. Needs to be balanced in a way.

It's a finicky system. Assign them a second time. Save/reload. I've had the same thing happen and just had to assign them again and, in one case, I had to WATCH a guy walk across Sanctuary to the shop stall before he would do it.

>>317415490
Fusion cores should be rechargeable, or craftable. All the material is there - nuclear material, steel, screws, etc. I agree though, it's a flawed mechanic, but I rarely use PA so it's a non issue for me honestly. I know that doesn't make it any less of an issue though.
>>
>>317415030
yeah you could but no oone would attack it and it'd just be fluff. which is what settlements are. nice idea, but irrelevant fluff.
>>
>>317415664
Or you should be able to build one of those generator things you can occasionally find a core in in basements. One core every X amount of time.
>>
>>317415805
Do you mean the generator would spawn a new one? That doesn't make much sense but there's merit in the idea - how about you can deposit spent cores in the generator and it recharges them after a set amount of in game time?
>>
>>317412881
Do you have a bar anywhere? The settlers like crowding around bars. You should plant like 3 of them near the area you want them to hang out at or even make a building a dedicated bar, that's how I solved my problem of retarded settlers just standing around in the middle of my settlements when there are houses and shit all around.
>>
>>317416006
Pop spent cores in and recharge them with nuclear material and stuff. Something like that.
>>
>>317416149
Bar?
>>
>>317416221
That's a damn fine idea, anon. Someone will probably make a mod similar to it at some point.

What I'm worried about is, is there a source of infinitely respawning cores? Because with the current mechanic it could mean you could run out of cores in a playthrough and be locked out of PA for the rest of the game.
>>
>>317416006
According to a friend of mine, you can recharge cores in the generators once it hits 10%, but I'm a purge kinda guy. Always sell my cores the moment they drop under 10 so I can afford more .44 ammo. Up to 2000 stashed in boxes, I can't stop buying ammo and then not using it. Send help.

>>317416149
What do you mean by bar?
I have an area in the town square with chairs and cooking apparatus and lots of interactive objects.

>>317416350
>>317416503
In the shop menu, one of the stalls you can build is a bar. You can build it and settlers will gather around it sometimes.
>>
>>317416503
>>317416350
Under the "Store/Trading" tab, there is a "Food and Drink" store you can build. If you build it, the sign says "Bar", so I just call it a bar. Settlers without jobs crowd around it and your job settlers will crowd around it too after work hours. Just plant a few down (they cost like 1.5k I think) and slap some chairs in front of them and near them and you'll find your settlers lounging around it more often than anything else.
>>
>>317416385
Merchants + ammo boxes respawn thus you have chances of getting some
