Settlement fishing furniture/crops which produce actual fish

[wysiwyg]

I really wanted to find better fishing options for settlements to assign settlers to work. I'm not talking about player fishing but something to build a settlement around instead of growing crops. Obviously Sim Settlements has lots of nice buildings but I'm not including it in my new playthrough because problems with that doomed all of my past playthroughs.

 

Does anyone know of any mods which add more settlement fishing related assignable stations?

 

Here's what I found:

 

1. Fishers - Fishing and More - Fah Hahbah. This would be great except it has a big flaw in overriding the default WorkshopParent quest to handle production of fish to the workshop. That can cause all sorts of problems especially when other mods do the same thing and create conflicts. There are also some issues reported with the animation placements for some of the tables. Includes copies of the scripts from the Fallout 4 Mining System scripts without credit or using the original mod as a master. If it wasn't for all of that it'd be closest to what I'm looking for with "fish meat" added to the workshop and at least one recipe to actually cook fish for the player to take on the road. It has several settlement objects like lobster traps, fish traps, larger fish nets. and fish gutting and cutting tables.

 

2. Basic Fishing by Zorkaz. It adds different kinds of fish and an assignable fishing chair. I definitely recommend and use this but I'm still looking for more settlement objects for variety. It adds a fishing chair plus multiple kinds of fish and recipes and even decorations using the raw fish.

 

3. CVC's Fishery - Adds a fishing net to statistically produce food and several objects which allow you to add animations around the fishing. Except for the net, the objects are meant more to provide a way for the settler to do more than just stand in one spot all day as they move from station to station performing related animations like cutting and weighing. It also includes structures like shack, bridges, etc. to build out your fishing station which, at least in my case, were already available in other mods. I works but doesn't have much variety of fish production and doesn't actually produce raw fish you can cook. This is NOT included in the CVC Dead Wasteland mod.

 

4. G2M Fish Farm Stuff and G2M Workshop - A fishing net station which produces "dead fish" which you can cook to produce "dead fish steak" which I think it kind of funny. :smile: The Fish Farm Stuff is included in to the complete workshop. It also includes some walkways/bridges to snap to the fishing net.

 

5. Better Stores (at Bethesda) - This surprised me and I only found this because I had it installed and looked for "fishing boat" in xEdit. It actually contains 3 colors of fishing boats which statistically produce 20 food for your settlements. They don't actually add cookable fish but they are a good addition to a place like Taffington especially if you use mods to expand it to have more water space and want more land to use for something other than crops.

 

6. Appletree Bakery and Creamery - Adds a great many new ingredients and crops and recipes to go along with them. It's actually a bit overwhelming. Unfortunately, this doesn't include settlement fishing stations. It does add a buildable fishing rod "weapon" with bait "ammo" and several kinds of fish to use in cooking recipes. I think the animations are hilarious as the fish "explode" out of the water in your direction when caught. I'd really like to use the Fallout 4 Mining System to make stations to produce dough, bread from dough, etc. when I get time (it's a shame that isn't used more) The finished goods do get added to leveled lists for stores so pies, cheeses, etc. show up there for you to purchase.

 

7. Northland Diggers - There are a few assignable settlement bench-type stations to add food and/or happiness such as cutting and weighing tables which are useful especially since I have this mod anyway. It does need several fixes and tweaks to avoid some potential issues.
