[request] mark settlement items as off limits to settlers

[Dracula420]

I requested this feature/bugfix as part of my small request thread but wanted to officially request it as a stand alone thing. i would like to be able to mark certain objects or areas as off limits and inaccessible to my settlers. i am tired of them wasted what few missiles and mininukes that i have on that radstag that just ran thru starlight drive in. i have a few ideas on how to accomplish this effect.

 

1. Add a duplicate tile set for building settlement buildings with the navmesh removed. give the player the option to build their stuff and NPCs wont be able to use it at all.

 

2. make an item that "repels" settlers at certain range(s)

 

3. using FO4SE make a new button on the settlement workbench menu to "claim" an object like a bed or container, thereby telling your settlers that they cant touch that.

^^^^this is the option i am hoping will exist soon. makes no sense to me why bethesda never did this to begin with but w/e.

 

anyway just putting this out there. if anybody figure out how to keep settlers out of there stuff and out of thier houses tell me how or post a screenie or something.

Mods like this would definitely be a good start toward making high Charisma/settlement oriented builds more playable for those of us who have avoided them for a thousand different reasons that basically boil down to poor implementation.

 

I'd love to be able to set player ownership/settler restriction on specific items like beds or containers. It would also be nice to have an area selection tool that would allow you to block off whole rooms, structures or open areas.
