HeyYou

That's gotta be a mod affect. Using any mods that reduce 'found' ammo?

Well that's just bizarre.... But, it's a Beth game, so, "bizarre" isn't really that unusual. :D Glad it's working for ya though. :D

Yeah, start with the clean uninstall. REVO Uninstaller portable works great to make sure EVERYTHING is gone. (and it's free.) Verify that everything is gone after the uninstall process is complete. Especially the folders in My Games, and App Data. Restart your machine, (just for giggles) then reinstall, make sure the base game runs before you install ANY mods.

Reload a different save, see if the building is still there.

Does it shut down, and stay off? Or does it reboot? Last time you cleaned the inside of the case? If it reboots, turn off "Automatically Restart on errors"..... That way, if it is actually blue-screening, it will show you the error message. I suspect a heat issue though.

Run a drive cleanup on your C drive, click on the button to 'clean up system files' as well. Things like windows updates, log files, and various other odd stuff MS thinks you need.... can take up a LOT of space. The windows.old folder can be up to around 30Gb...... So, open File Explorer, right click on your C drive, select Properties in the menu that comes up, click the Drive Cleanup button the general tab, and then do what I suggest above. You can pick and choose what stuff you dump.

I don't see anything in there that should obviously cause that...... and I have no clue where you would need to look in FO4Edit to see what mods were influencing resource production...... Do you have any supply lines set up? Could other settlements be using up your water? (I don't see how that would work when you have triple digit production though..... are the settlers THAT thirsty??)

You could try loading that save, but, no guarantee the game won't crash again.... Give it a shot, see what happens. If it doesn't work, just load the save before that, and go from there.

I thought fire salts were just an alchemy ingredient?

Ah yes, Female Armor. :)

Yep, there they are. :D

Hhhmm... Good lookin' boxes, but, they don't appear to sell them here in the US. Amazon has some for sata and m2, even from icy box and usb-c. I didn't see icy box as an option there...... I must not be looking hard enough. :D

Mousewheel should adjust the distance the camera is from your character in third person.

Rename your ini files in the My Games\Fallout 4 folder, try the game again.

Ever used xEdit? Load all your mods in xEdit, pick an NPC, find the setting for "use ammo", and see if any mods affect that.

Anything changed on your machine lately? Added or removed any mods?

Wonder if it is some variety of engine limitation. Try reducing your water production in steps. (maybe 100 at a time) See if it actually starts producing the amount of water it should.

Check the in-game 'controls' menu, and see if the 'fire' button is also mapped to the 'move' button.

Ok, the Gun Tax thing was mis-represented. Apparently, it is a one-time 'tax' on the sale, transfer, or manufacture of certain types of firearms..... Whether that will be applied to existing owners, or not... is still open to question. Thing is though, since the so-called 'assault rifles' are considered 'long guns', they are not required to be registered in most states, so, tracking who has one, or who doesn't, is essentially impossible. Same goes for an outright ban/buyback. Its really unfortunate though, that nothing the dems are proposing are going to make the least bit of difference in gun crime. The criminals, and those with malign intent, will still be able to get their hands on pretty much anything they want. The weapons that they are targeting are also only used in a tiny fraction of gun crime. (long guns account for about 3% of gun crime, 'assault rifles' are a subset of that 3%)

For the love of Dread Sithis, please post your sources. Don't you already have to do this for car insurance, groceries, telephone, electricity, dental care etc? What's your point? The US/West pretty much created the manufacturing powerhouse that China is today because US companies wanted to benefit from cheaper labour. How is China competition for the US when many of your most beloved companies (e.g. Apple) generate supra-normal profits by benefiting from geo-arbitrage with China? They are a trading partner. I won't comment on anything else without knowing what your sources are. My sources are usually news sites. Most of what I have up there you can find on yahoo news, or, on Bidens own page. (search on "biden political platform") They are all over the place, and I simply don't feel like expending the effort to post links to stuff that is easy to find. I will grant you that the 'gun tax' thing IS just a rumor, however, the person I heard it from is pretty reliable. (I haven't looked to deeply into it myself, yet......) Yes, Nixon went to China, and opened the doors for business to go there. And they have. China went from third-world-nation status, to powerhouse, in a few short decades, mostly due to the sudden influx of money/technology from the west. (which they promptly stole) This did wonderful things for their economy, and gave them large amounts of money to spend on..... their military. Now we have China expanding into the China sea, building military bases there, claiming water/land that is actually in OTHER FOLKS 'exclusive economic zones'....... And if you wander thru pretty much any department store here in the US, good luck finding any products that were actually made in the US. 90% or more now come from China. Products that used to be manufactured right here in the US, made from US sourced materials, are now coming on a boat from china. Product quality has gone down, but, the 'cost savings' we were promised from this simply haven't materialized. That was the claim about moving auto manufacturing to Mexico as well. It didn't happen that way. I understand the business reasons for moving manufacturing offshore, it's all about profit. However, just because Apple made billions last year, does NOT imply that helps the US as a whole in any way, shape, form, or manner. A select few at the top are making money hand over fist, posting record profits every quarter. The rest of us? Wages are stagnant, the middle class is disappearing, the wealth gap is expanding at an alarming rate, and I don't see any of that changing any time soon. As I see it (and this is purely my opinion) we are enabling a potential adversary to dramatically improve their war-fighting capability, at the expense of our own economy. China is getting bolder, and our government is doing nothing to impede that. Mainly because too many of their buddies are profiting mightily from it. At this point, it is open to question whether we could win a war against China. (not that I want one, this is just worst case scenario) The longer this goes on, the more likely we will get spanked. Globalization has cost the US population a fair bit. We are now primarily a 'service industry' economy, with low-wage jobs. Biden bumping minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour is NOT going to fix that. In fact, it will make things worse. (have a good look at Seattle, and Los Angeles.....)

So you're comparing what someone might do, with what someone has actually done? That's not how this works.... He doesn't have much of a track record, yet..... so, I will withhold judgement until such time as he does. However, if he actually DOES what he SAYS, (which is something he promised to do) then I will stand by my statement. Of course, there are a fair few things in the democrat platform that I vehemently disagree with........ so, yeah, I am indeed biased. :D Just out of sheer interest from an outsider, what are the things you disagree with (if you're comfortable sharing that)? His positions on gun control, and his idea of a 'gun tax', charging (registered) gun owners 200 bucks per gun per year. But that one is minor compared to some of his other positions. None of which will make the slightest difference in gun crime, as they will only affect the law-abiding. The criminals will still have guns, still be able to get them easily, and chicago will still have one of the highest gun-crime rates in the world. (along with several other democrat controlled cities, with already tough gun laws.) Rumor has it that he reinstated the insurance requirement from Obamacare. I have real issues with the government FORCING me to purchase a product/service from a private company. He also made noises about reparations for slavery. Something that ended 150 years ago. No one that lived thru it is alive today, neither are any of the perpetrators. He wants to re-join the paris accords. An agreement that studies have shown that even if EVERYONE did EVERYTHING they promised to, (which will never happen) it would only reduce temp rise by .1 degree over the course of the rest of the century. Yeah. Ok. Lets trash our economy, dump a boatload of jobs, in order to accomplish...... nothing..... In 2019, Biden said that China is "not competition" for the United States. That is just such BS, and everyone in the real world knows it. Take a look at how much of our manufacturing moved there. That says it all. There are others as well.

Have any mods that remove the settlement resource caps? If you have enough water in the workshop inventory, that settlement will simply stop producing.
