Description:
===============

Setting out to see the sites of the capital wasteland, Wilbur - a friendly member of the swampfolk from point lookout - will gladly tag along with you as his tour guide... if you do a favor for him first. This is my first mod, introducing a new companion to the Capital Wasteland. Scripted like a vanilla follower, Wilbur can do most of the things they can (the only exception is using ranged weapons, which brawlers are incapable of doing). A hardy companion capable of bursting super mutant extremities with only his fists, Wilbur is ready for action!
If you find any major bugs, please report them. I would also appreciate some feedback, so let me know if you think he's too weak or too strong :)
I hope you enjoy this BETA as much as I enjoyed making it and, if you like Wilbur, please rate him :)

WILBUR CAN NOW TRAVEL TO POINT LOOKOUT!
This feature is a work in progress. Please don't fire Wilbur while in the Point Lookout region, he will just stand around looking like a melon! Due to be fixed at a later date.

When you arrive at Point Lookout, fast travel to to the introduction PL location (the Duchess boat) and he will appear with you. When you return to the Riverboat Landing in the Capital Wasteland, fast travel to this location too and he will, again, appear with you.

IF YOU LIKE THIS FEATURE, CHECK OUT MY PL TRAVEL BETA MOD, WHICH ALLOWS THE OTHER COMPANIONS TO TRAVEL TO POINT LOOKOUT TOO :D

Bugs/Issues:
===============

A Banjo On My Knee is a BETA, so there are a few things that need to be changed, none of which really affect gameplay to a major degree.
1. He gets stuck on the bridge to Rivet City for some reason (inconsequential really, there's nothing on the bridge and he rejoins you when you enter the city).
2. He still needs voice acting, and his battle phrases are the same as a regular Brawler (to be changed at a later date).
3. As with most user-released companions, he has trouble in Vault 87 and Murder Pass.
4. He has no swimming animation, so he wades though water no matter how deep it is (to be changed when I learn animation :)
5. In Evergreen Mills, he tends to wander around the side of a trailer until you release the Behemoth from the cage; then he will rejoin the fight.
