Adding more exterior cells to a Settlement

[CreepShow1334]

I'm trying to expand the size of a vanilla settlement, and I can't find this info through searches so far, but if there's a tut specific to it, feel free to share the link.

 

I want to add more surrounding cells to a settlement, but I'm not sure how to add them to the encounter zone for the default area, so they're all covered by the "no reset" option. Honestly, I'm not even sure if that's required? I already know to how to increase the sandbox area and the build area for the settlement, so that's not a problem.

Assuming your encounter zone is mapped to a Unique Location called PREFIX_SettlementNameLocation, then:

 

In CellView window select Settlement cells F2 to Rename:SettlementNameExtNN or SettlementNameIntNN
In CellView window select Settlement cells Right click edit Location: PREFIX_SettlementNameLocation

 

they will roll up to the location attaching the encounter zone, keywords and such. Finished product example:

 

In ObjectWindow select SanctuaryHillsLocation

Thanks a bunch. That was exactly what I needed.
