vonBennett Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Hi All, So I have several interior settlements that I am having an issue. Specifically, when bed time arrives, the settlers just stop what they are doing, and instead of heading off to their beds, they just stand in place all night long. In the morning, at first call, they begin their daily routines again. I think I might have it narrowed down to a NavMesh issue??? Somehow they are not able to find a path to their beds. I had an interior settlement that work just fine. I just recently expanded the interior settlement by adding a few more rooms and re-worked the entrance. Now the settlers in this settlement no longer go to bed at night. Since I added a few areas and included NaMesh, I think I somehow messed up the ability of the settlers to find their beds (even if I add new beds it still doesn't work). Nothing else was really done, just added more rooms and the NavMeshed them. I am now making an assumption that when I added more NavMesh areas and then finalized (check mark in NavMesh mode) my NavMesh in the Creation Kit, it broke something? When I am working on exterior settlements, I normally finalize the NavMesh mutiple times as it is the only way to make sure that all cells are properly connected.This seems to not be an issue and my settlers in my exterior settlements do not have this issue with finding their beds at night. I am not tally sure but I think that if one finalizes NavMesh too many times while working on an interior cell (settlement) it causes issues with settlers being able to find their beds. I have this issue with two other interior settlements. This seems like the most plausible explanation for my situation with the settlers not wanting to go to sleep in some of my interior settlements. So...to test my theory, I would to somehow totally reset (not just delete NavMesh manually and re-do) my NavMesh for the interior cell (settlement). Is their a way to do this within the Creation Kit? How about FO4Edit? Once this is accomplished, I will re-NavMesh the entire cell and will only finalize NavMesh when it is totally completed. Thank you, B...

pepperman35 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 My guess is you have a navmesh error someplace. Have you path tested the navmesh? Have you run error testing on the navmesh? Have you checked the log for navmesh errors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonBennett Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 My guess is you have a navmesh error someplace. Have you path tested the navmesh? Have you run error testing on the navmesh? Have you checked the log for navmesh errors?The interior settlement in question used to work until I did an add on. Everything was and always is path tested. Any errors found have been fixed (I think one triangle need to be fixed in this case). The log is clear. I really think interior cells (settlements) might break something if you finalize NavMesh too many times. Like I said, it seems to only mess with settlers not going to sleep because they can't find a path to beds (pre-existing or even new ones created in workshop). I think one way is to erase all NevMesh in the cell and then save and close; and hope this resets NavMNesh. The,re open and redue all Navmesh in the cell and only finalize once?
