Papajack55 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) I have a pondering question here, and not sure if anyone else experiencing this: I lately in the past two weeks have seen explosions and sometimes a nuke has gone off from far away. Has anyone else experienced this? It just happens out of the blue but ony affects my followers and the few nocs nearby. Any thoughts or ideas on how tostop these, or is it just something that happens as time goes by for the character?

Weightaholic Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 As in you heard/saw explosions/nukes going off in the distance, or they just occur at your location without any enemy NPCs around? And how does it affect NPCs and followers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NPCs will fight even when you are not around as long as you are loading in a cell close enough. raiders fight gunners fight supermutants fight synths, fight ghoul, fight yao gais etc etc. So small arms fire when it hits nuclear powers cars from those fights can make them go "boom" just as if u were shooting. Also some locations a raider, gunner etc, may wield a fat man. For example in Lexingtom you can sometimes observe ( or hear) a raider using nukes on ghouls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmasich Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Do you maybe have the mod NAC X? It adds similar explosions as a 'weather' on occasion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how does it affect NPCs and followers? The explosions seem to be random as they are nearby and you can see them from faraway barely if they are far enough. They seem to land anywhere even Sanctuary Hills. I'm just wondering if it is a progressive as time goe on kind of thing? Also, mmashic to answer your question if I have the mod NAC X, no, I double checked and no, I don't have it. So, if anyone can still help me....I'm begging please.......!...(lol, no, not begging just wondering if and who can help.) It doesn't seem to affect the NPCs or followers any. BUT- I seem to have to make repairs on things like generators and other things like turrets and guard stands. That's about it.

mkh97 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Happens in my game too sometimes. Probably just a Super Mutant that blew himself up, or a car that exploded somewhere. If you hear explosions while you are in Sanctuary it might be because Red Rocket got attacked. If Dogmeat is there he will try to defend the settlement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As another poster noted, as the game progresses, certain factions get more active, and there will often be fights, and explosions, occurring. Moreso than at the start of the game. As for the generator/defense repairs, I assume you're showing up to defend? Although I have on occasion noticed some delay/hiccups in the damage system , a raider once shot a missile that exploded right next to my generator in a settlement, and I thought - "wow, I'm surprised the generator didn't go kaput". Next time I visited that settlement, there was a boom, as... yep, you guessed it, the generator went offline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's called The NPCs Travel. I think that may be the thing that's causing all the things to happen. It involves Gunners,raiders, scavs, and more Including the Brotherhood of steel. So, I think I may have found the situation for the problem. I'm going to play the game all the way through to see how this ends. It takes place in all thedlcs also.
