Does "Transfer Settlements" grant XP?

[stebbinsd]

So everyone is going all goo-gaw over the mod "Transfer Settlements." And yes, it definitely looks like it would be a huge convenience and an enormous time-saver for anyone who takes their settlement building seriously.

 

But I have one quick problem with this mod: Does importing settlements grant my character the same XP that I would have gotten by building that settlement from scratch?

 

See, for those of us who take out settlement building seriously, that's actually one of the biggest rewards. The settlements themselves offer very little of real value, aside from a regular recurring supply of adhesive in the form of vegetable starch. But other than that, settlements are mostly independent of the rest of the game. The primary reward we get from building large, elaborate settlements is the ability to get lots of levels without putting yourself in mortal peril.

 

This mod definitely looks like it would take that reward away ... unless the mod specifically makes a note of how much experience was gained by making that mod from scratch and included that data in the blueprint file. That's something the mod developer MIGHT have done, but it's not something I would necessarily EXPECT him to do!

THIS RIGHT HERE^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I keep asking this same damned question on the comments section of that mod and nobody EVER answers me I was starting to think I was the only one that thought about this stuff. So far it does not grant XP for anything imported but it should I think. There should be a limit so you only get the XP once after import instead of spamming import to get XP and ruining game play. Because there is no XP granted what happens is your character takes a lot longer to level up past the initial perks and get to something decent like armor level 3 and gun nut 3 so you can get medium combat armor and decent enough gun mods and decent enough power armor mods. I guess it is better to slow down the fast leveling in this game but just not at the beginning. By the time I get to far harbor I can almost one shot anything and that just helps to remind me how boring the story is for far harbor.
