Cap Stashes. (Mod request, increase/modify amount)

[AtmaDarkwolf]

I don't know about anyone else, but I find the cap stashes you find, esp later in the game, just abysmal. I mean 12-16 caps when your hauling at least 10k around, and most 'ammo resupplies' cost you 2-3k caps.

 

Can anyone make the stashes scale with your level (or any other way to increase the amount to fair amounts, something someone would actually try to 'stash') that won't break early game? (or just make them 10-20x as large as they currently are, so they actually 'matter')

I agree, besides, at least 100 caps could easily fit in a box that size, makes no sense to call it a "stash" unless it's a fairly high amount.

yeah, and I took a perk to increase the value, Riiiiggghhhtttt, I get up to 25 caps now, sometimes

[AtmaDarkwolf]

yea, that caps increase perk(forgot name) is a letdown, and the final rank is really.. idk, negative?(the explosion of caps can 'stutter' on my older machine, and there's like 10-12 caps on the ground after)

 

Would(if I had the ability) improve that one too (IE: make explosion but put the caps on the corpse that 'triggers' the explosion rather than on the ground)

 

but really, the caps stash thing has always annoyed me from the very first, when I realized the lamest low end legendary u can buy was 5500 or so, and the stash gave a measly 12 caps)

Cap stashes should definitely hold more caps than what I get, I usually find 15-20 caps in those shoe box sized stashes, c'mon at least 100 caps should be in there.

The Activator "loot_capsStash_tin" "Caps Stash" links thru several LVLI lists and ends on "LL_Caps_Reward_Small_and_Change" to get its results, problem is the LVLI lists are also referenced by a few other things like bottle cap mines, a few safes, some NPCs, etc etc.

Suppose if you just made a new LVLI list and linked it directly to that you could easily make the changes.

Kinda find it funny that the "stashes" are linked to the smallest reward list :confused:

I came here to post this request. Glad I'm not the only one disappointed to find a hard to reach nook or cranny with only 17 caps in a "stash." I can appreciate the difficulty that might be related to this endeavor, but feel it would be quite lore friendly to have anywhere from 100-350 or so in caps in these containers, especially given some of the unique and novel locations where some are found. Here's hoping one of you smoothskins figures it out!
