TaxiVader Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Hi all. I have made a functioning settlement (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/29441) but there are a few issues with it. 1. The settlement icon does not show the settlement stats in the regular pipboy map view, 2. The icon does not appear in the trade routes map view, and3. I can send settlers from the settlement to other locations, but not the reverse because the name of my new settlement isn't in the list of destinations from any other settlement. I have also tried a whole new game, same thing happens. So it's not due to the game already being in progress. I'm brand new to the FO4 creation kit so I don't have any idea what to do. My guess is that all of these are linked or are in fact the same thing, and that I've not inserted the settlement into a list / script of some sort. Can anyone suggest how I might try to fix these issues? TV Edited January 28, 2018 by TaxiVader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxiVader Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) never mind, fixed it by linked reffing the workbench to the map marker and back. Just out of interest, that's not in marymint's youtube tute (Mods1984) and also doesn't get a mention in Neeher's Part 2 tute since the map marker for atom cats is already in place when he starts making the settlement (I think...)

You need to link the workbench to the marker, and the marker to the workbench? Using which keywords? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxiVader Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Actually I have been through both tutes about 5 times each and I only got the map icon to work once; I think it was a fluke. I've tried combining parts of the two tutorials but all I get is 0 happiness and no map icon data. The Wiki also has no info about making settlements. This is all very frustrating.

pra Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Damn :/ I'm trying to make the abandoned "settlemods" work for me. Well, it works mostly, but Easy City Downs has no icon and you can't send settlers there, for example. On the other hand, one of the interior player home it adds can have settlers sent to it.

BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 They donât be mention it because you shouldnât have to do it that way. Iâm not sure what issue is, but for sure, linking the mapmarker to the workbench is not a normal step. Try comparing to Open Stands, a VERY basic settlement I did as a teaching tool/proof of concept.

BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Also, yeah, Pra, I very much remember the trouble they had with Easy City Downs. There is a LOT of stuff going on at that location in vanilla...both they and I were very much not surprised by it having issues. Iâd wish you good luck on it, though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
