trepmaws Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Hey guys, I could use a little help and a knowledge drop. So, I discovered I can't send any of my companions to Sanctuary anymore (20hrs in) after dismissing them, the option is blurred out in the menu screen. Is this some kind of "feature", or is my game just bugged out? I will say that there are 12 people currently living in my settlement, all with beds and healthy stats across the board (78% happiness). Does this mean that there is some kind of cap? Also, Preston is still at Sanctuary, as I've never recruited him. I'd like some help to figure this out, as Google has brought me no answers, and I'd like to be able to send all my companions to one area. Thanks in advance to anyone who might have an answer!

Vagrant0 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 The limit per settlement is 10 + your charisma stat. You can't have anything more than that regardless how many beds or how much happiness you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it's strange, I have 12 inhabitants but only 1 point in Charisma, which should add up to 11 max. Is there any way of getting rid of settlers without resorting to killing them?

You could put them in the truck stop nearby, not ideal but its a small walk, I am guessing when modders get hold of this game they'll extend the truckstops build range closer to sanctuary, seems logical to create one big build zone.

Vegalyp Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Thanks, I was having this same issue. Can't wait for modders to change the boundaries and the settler limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that'll have to do for now. I just wish that companions wouldn't go towards the settlement limit so that you could put them all in one spot. They don't even contribute to the settlement, other than Codsworth, but he's never counted as a citizen. Yet he's still held to the settlement limit for whatever reason. Seems like an oversight on Bethesda's part. On another note, I discovered that you can somewhat circumvent the issue of companion swapping. You can still dismiss a companion to the last settlement they where recruited from, as long as you cancel out of the menu rather than choosing a spot. That way, you can swap companions even if the settlement has reached it's limit. Hopefully modders will begin to fix these issues soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
