URGENT: PLEASE READ OR RISK LOSING YOUR BASEMENT CONTAINER ITEMS!!
This new version dynamically links the basement workshop to the parent container of the settlement it's placed in, so they share items. Provisioner linked settlement items are unfortunately not shared, but I cover the reasons why extensively in the sticky post.
Once linked, the old basement workshop container items will go away, so what you need to do is (if you care) move your stuff OUT of that Workshop before they're linked. Below are the steps you must follow.
- BACK UP YOUR SAVE!! JUST DO IT!
- DO NOT MOVE, SCRAP, OR EVEN HIGHLIGHT YOUR BASEMENT DOOR IN WORKSHOP MODE! Even moving it will link it to the parent settlement and you'll lose your stored stuff in the basement.
- Go into the basement (or load your save inside of it)
- Go to the Workshop container/toolbox, and transfer everything out of it
- If you are over-encumbered and can't exit the door, turn on GOD MODE temporarily by opening the console (~ key) and typing TGM
- Exit to above ground, drop your junk into your main settlement workshop
- Go back to where the door is placed, open workshop mode, and scrap it
- Re-build the door, and in doing so, the basement will automatically link up to the parent workshop
- Enter the basement, confirm that you see the parent settlement workshop items
- Save your game
Done!
