Getting Objects To Scrap In An Interior Workshop

[RedBeakRaven]

Hello everyone, have an issue that's driving me nuts and I cannot for the life of me figure out what is wrong, so any help is appreciated. I'm making a mod that adds a workbench to both the interior and exterior of Fizztop Grille (I know there are mods for this, but I'm doing something a bit different), and for some reason the scrap mods or my own created scrap recipes don't work on almost all of the objects found inside/outside Fizztop Grille. Even things that the vanilla game lets you pick up and scrap won't actually be highlighted.

 

Is anyone able to explain what's the situation here? I'm taking a guess, that it may be something to do with the fact that the interior wasn't designed for the workshop mode.

Your first problem is Precombined Meshes. Scrap mods like Spring Cleaning and Scrap Everything disable them in order to allow you to scrap more. You are partially right about it not being designed for a settlement, as that meant they included things in the precombined meshes they wouldn't have if they intended it to be a settlement.

 

The second problem comes from the fact that it is an interior cell. That means just disabling the previs/precombineds will cause (graphical) issues, and you'll have to either rebuild the previs/precombineds to exclude the things you want scrappable, or fix the room bounds/portals system for that cell*.

 

*I would still recommend rebuilding the precombineds, as that will prevent people from scrapping the outer pieces and glimpsing the void.

Ahh, yes, of course, I remember learning about the Precombined Meshes a while back, but never really paid much attention to it. Think I've sorted it now, but not entirely sure yet. At least I have somewhere to start, so thank you for that!

 

Rebuilt the Precombineds and looks good so far.
