    Hi gift2 still a great mod.

    With the new Sim Settlements mod http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21872/? mod makers can make add on to it and I was wondering if you could do something like a Orphanage for it that includes 1 teacher desk and 1 adult bed/mattress with 2-5 child beds/sleeping bag.

    T 1 has 2 child beds/sleeping bag and 2 child desk. 1 adult bed and 1 teacher desk.
    T 2 has 4 child beds/sleeping bag and 4 child desk. 1 adult bed and 1 teacher desk.
    T 3 has 5 child beds/sleeping bag and 5 child desk. 1 adult bed and 1 teacher desk.

    Set the time for school to run from 8 am to about 4 pm and then allow the kids and teacher go use other items in the settlement other wise like it is from 6 am to 8 am and 8 pm to 12 pm = free time.

    It will have to be a 2 story build with the first floor the school and 2nd floor being the sleeping part.

    Or 2 buildings that 1 is for sleeping/living and the other is the school.

    Teacher needs to be assign like other settlers to both buildings but the kids get spawn in as the room allows.

    Teacher can use a house plot form the mod but the kids can not so they need there own place to sleep.

    Or what ever you think would be good.

    Once again thank you for both Orphans of the Commonwealth and Raider Children.

      I have used this mod in the past and like the idea. my issue with it is i really want my base settlment population to be adults you know the 20-30 max you can get. and have children be be a small addition. my reason why is because i build my settlments with high employment. i have Northland Diggers mod, a Bank Mod, a Church. if i have kids there i need a teacher. so in total i can have 23 or more jobs.
      With the Kids i can assign them to learn with this mod which is really all i want is the kids going to school, playing and coming home. and also a way to pick what settlements get children. i would love a mod more to suit the world i am building im wondering if there is a way to do it.

      Have you put any more thought into an orphanage or school addition to this mod?

    Had an older mod. Liked it so much I installed a newer version.
    Ruined my Bunker Hill.
    That kind of a change does not belong with Orphans.
    Uninstalled.

    I like this mod, however, I am finding that you can only assign them to garden and nothing else. While you can upgrade their weapons you cannot assign them to guard duty or to a vendor station. It seems like slave labor seeing them working in the garden. But that is just me. I haven't installed kids beds as I don't see the need and it is hard to predict how many kids will arrive at the settlement. For example, Sanctuary is set up to receive 32 (beautiful) settlers....mostly women... with 42 beds available. There is also more than enough food to feed and an entire army. I tend to spend a considerable amount of time building settlements and all with manned howitzers at the ready. I also have Heather Casdin as my favorite companion. In all, I have some 134 mods installed in my game.
