m0ds1984 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Unfortunately not everyone has made settlements that function fully. This probably applies to older ones nowadays, but you should still check the description and if they have not mentioned outright that it is fully functional, it's worth assuming that it isn't. The other tell-tale sign is to check that happiness reads "50%" when you first activate the workshop. Anything else and it's likely bugged or hasn't been made fully functional by its creator. Ultimately, it's the modders duty to test their settlement and be forthright with the information about it, but not all of them are. So be careful - as you say, many hours can be 'wasted' building only to realize it's not actually a functional settlement rather just a "place to build stuff". But, checking the happiness reads 50 immediately is a sure sign that their mod is fully functional in the way you'd expect and can prevent you wasting hours!

Also note that mods like "dont call me settler" dont play nice with non vanilla settlements . A good indication that a location isnt going to work is also the happiness % .If you see ZERO happiness...the mod has a problem. ( sometimes your save game may cause this but very rarely ).

BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Posting your mods list/load order (in spoiler tags) is probably a good idea. =) Also, what about the 50% question M0ds and Greek asked about? Any info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
