RngrHawk Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Hello Nexus Community! During the creating of a mod, I have stumbled upon a mysterious yet very simple game mechanic inside the workshop object placement menu. So as we all know, we have a components list required for an object to be placed on the right hand side of the screen. Now, I found out recently, that only 8 components max can be shown on this list. If an object requires more than that, not all the components show up. Although, I saw an arrow pointing downwards right under the list and imminently I though, "Ok lets scroll this shiz down." But NOPE! I couldn't find a single way to scroll down the list of components. Either I am being completely stupid about this, missing something, or the mechanic is just broken/not explained. So, if anyone knows how to use this arrow, or scroll, please let me know because it is driving me nuts at this point. Yes, this might be a bit of a small issue, but as we all probably know - game mechanics and little things like this make the game good... Or unmodifiable. Here is a screenshot as well: https://gyazo.com/c18bdbedae0c259b9aae800e6fcaeefe Thanks for any response in advance, especially help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damanding Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 It's definitely the latter evening alcohol talking so I really hope I don't offend...but WHY do you need so many components for a constructible? I'm in progress on a mod with others which includes cluttered furniture and as the cluttered furniture is my bit I've had to decide on recipes. I decided to generally pick a happy medium between super realistic and super lazy. So A+ to you for finding what may be a game engine limit but seriously why? Is it absolutely necessary for 20+ immersion levels? Can you maybe roll your D20 a bit lower? Although it is nice to know as a modder what the limits may be.

RngrHawk Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Well I did consider lowering the amount of components but it just wouldn't work well with what I am trying to produce. This is going to be my last option if this is actually an engine limit, and probably a broken simple game mechanic... I just find it really weird why a list inside the Workshop cannot be scrolled, just as you would expect it to be. Unless, like I said before, I am missing something. Besides, I am making this mod mostly for myself. Well, at least I was at the start. Now I'm thinking of publishing it after a fair bit of testing, but as I am by myself and only started to learn CK from scratch like a month or two back, it'll be a process... At first I wanted to make my own game harder since I think Fallout 4 is just lacking a whole lot and even on Survival it is just too easy. Also, the screenshot if only for presentation purposes.
