Doesn't seem to be possible. Raider power armor is shit, though. I just stole all the parts off their corpse.

[Neonivek]

Goodness Companions are very useful and completely useless at the same dang time.

[Stuebi]

Allright, I've given up.

Fixing the Walls in the Castle is just not freaking possible the way the building works now.

I'm probably either gonna build up the Red Rocket, or that one big Parking Lot with lot's of space. At least until the Mods fix those stupid locations. It's also teeth grinding how you can not build Crafting Stations until you leveld up that weird Leader perk twice. Especially since it's so damn far low on the list.

How do I assign people to stuff anyway? I don't know if I missed the explanation but regardless I can't figure it out on my own, and it seems you're not able to get the defense counter up without assigning poeople.

someone in reddit built it up using unusual building things.

Press E on somebody in workshop mode, then press E on what you want to assign them to. Really confusing, it doesn't say this anywhere and took me a while to figure out.

dont bother fixing walls... npc will just spawn from thin air anywhere they like anyhow.
instead, just litter the area with heavy machine gun turrets. they dont need a lot or rare mats to build, and its way less frustrating to fight this broken building ui.

Ah, nice. Thanks. I tried Eing people but didn't try Eing the place I wanted them

[sprinkled chariot]

Is there any console command for increasing level in perks? Being unable to hack terminals is really insulting.

Also raiders just spawned near my power armour suits, got inside and kicked asses of everyone. Why would not military protect their gear with fucking password, really.

I think for a lot of it they used the foundation pieces.

[Niveras]

Yeah, I think any settlement I make is going to have one small area with wood floors and wood stairs, and then build everything on a "second floor" above the actual terrain itself. A village on stilts. A lot easier snapping things in place without the terrain in the way. Put the warning bells there so people gather up there when defending.

Not 100% sure how that will work in terms of defense, though. Would invaders spawn "in" the structure or below it, on the actual ground?

It isn't as hard as you think! Try using the concrete foundation under wood floors. I was able to plug the holes up with that.

I'm using the castle as my main base and the armory as my power armor storage room. I've already got 7! suits of power armor, companions wearing 4, two spares, and my main T60/X0-1 suit.

Now, note I did use the cheat engine hack to allow unlimited placement of items to build the base, since the default is way, waaay too low.

i started a research program to reproduce the rad scorpions ability to detect hidden opponents over virtually unlimeted range even while they use stealth technology.
first testings indicate this ability is somehow connected to the creatures ability to borrow, maybe they somehow utilize sismic waves with are produced by the stealthed targets heartbeat.
if this project should be sucessful, i hope to integrate it into the powerarmors sensor to give the wearer full information about any moving object on the planet.


serious: fuckin rad scorpions. even when standing still with some annoying stealth armor thingy that turned me invisible, stealth indication went from hidden to danger in a flash. ran quite far away and hid again, as soon as the danger indictator relaxed to caution, it flipped right back to danger. fucked around with it a bit from shier curiosity, it seemed to work over kilometers range, and its unaffected by los.
annoying. well, bashing the damn fucker to death with a power fist worked fine.

Huh. I literally walked into one without it noticing me yesterday while I was sneaking around a super mutant camp. I only realized it was there when I went to [caution], turned around, and was like, "Wait, that's a radscorpion three feet away from me." Only have 1 point in the sneak perk and ~3 of the sneak magazines.

[motorbitch]

maybe its the difficulty setting? i havnt tested it  (yet) but i have a hunch that stealth is way less stealty and dudes grow eyes on the back of their heads with harder settings.

[Yoink]

...Ugh.
Level 17 and I finally worked out how to scroll down on the perks screen. I'd wondered why the selection of perks was so small.
In my defence, having to right-click and drag is a bit odd, at least in my experience.

Oh well I'm buying my own copy of the game tomorrow and starting over anyway, so it's no big deal.
On that note, after another unhealthy day of binge-gaming I need to get some sleep so I can wake up and go buy the game tomorrow.
I'm expected to do cool social stuff tomorrow, but fuck that. Priorities.
