Settlement & Building immersion mod

[Nogginthetree]

I had an idea yesterday while building my settlement.

 

I think it's kinda wierd how construction happens instantly in Fallout 4, especially given that there are construction animations for settlers in the game. So my idea is this:

 

When you build, instead of it happening instantaneously, you would design structures or equipment by creating a ghosted version of the thing first. This wouldn't require any materials, but instead each item would join a build queue. You could then assign settlers to construction duty and as the materials come available they would set about making the planned object. Objects could take varying amounts of time to build, depending on how complex they are, during which time the assigned settler could stand there hammering.

 

I'd have a go at building this myself, but I'm flat out with work at the moment at the moment and barely have enough time to play as I is.

This is would be an excellent mod for settlement design. I hope someone picks up on it and runs with it.
