kelticpete Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 So first off. I have everything in the white. my major problem settlements are Abernathy and Sanctuary. For like the 9 settlers I have at each I have food/water/power/defense/bed all well above 9. Secondly, when I have seen the exclamation point denoting that the happiness is dropping, I have gone and a) built shops and assigned themb) built TVs or jukeboxes and strung up lights and thrown down rugs. Usually setting up a new store stops the Sad. But not this time. This gets really old. how do you keep the dreeaded exclamation point away?
TheGadget1945 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 There could be a synth there. I had 16 settlers at Starlight Drive In and it was attacked by a squad of synths after I fell out with the Institute. After the battle was over I found 4 settlers dead and all of them had synth components. At Outpost Zymonja the guy I had put on defence was shot by his own missile turret and he was a synth too.I have installed BYOP working showers at all of my settlements and they really help the happiness factor which I suppose they would do in real life !
kelticpete Posted June 4, 2016 Author Posted June 4, 2016 I don't follow on the synth component. you mean they had synth armor on? or that somehow the game replaced settlers with synths? I did a head count at A farm. all 7 alive. so...yeah. I tend to not arm my settlers very often. I use a lot of turrets. and i thought the game warned you of any attack.
TheGadget1945 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 When you kill someone or find them dead and loot them, if they have a Synth Component on them it means they were a Synth. The suspected presence of synths contributes to settler unhappiness and sometimes to get called to intervene when settlers threaten to kill a suspected synth. In my case at Starlight a quarter of the settlers were undercover synths.I also found a dead Brahmin with a synth component at one settlement.
BlackRoseOfThorns Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 I also found a dead Brahmin with a synth component at one settlement. o_O If it was still Skyrim, it would explain why CHICKENS could witness and report your crimes.
