I have noticed a few missing items (Foundations, beds etc) when creating settlements from my blueprints. I assumed it was because I have been overwriting the same blueprint files since early 2017. So I deleted all my files and went back and created the blueprints from the beginning with Transfer Settlements 1.48... this took a fair bit of time for 33 blueprints...
After I was done the file sizes were slightly smaller than my latest updates so the theory seems to valid. I have also done a few cosmetic changes to brighten the settlements up a bit. I was originally only going to update my blueprint pack but I hated the idea of my work seeming incomplete... my OCD gene I guess...
I'm looking forward to putting this to use. I used your "fort" build for Greentop and loved how you put function over form. I generally prefer those shanty-town-like hard-scrabble setups but those are hard to make defensible. The sheer practicality of your designs is ingenious. Thank you so much.
I've always been hit hard at Somerville by Supermutants. I got creamed once teleporting directly in front of several of them with miniguns. Finally had to fast travel to a nearby site and then run the rest of the way. Had the entire family disappear once (carried off for mutant stew?), so I always try to build it up nowadays. Having experience with your Greentop build, I feel pretty confident the place will be safe now :)
My Fort configuration came about at Murkwater Construction site on my second play through and it worked so well against the Mirelurk Queen spawn I went back and rebuilt all my sites. They are not pretty, but they make it easy to find your settlers, have everything you need and save a ton of grunt work repairing turrets, crops and equipment every time you have a settlement attack... and they are inside the vanilla settlement budgets.
I ran into many game breaking glitches when I used mods that changed settlement layout and size, CTD or insane load times on zoning, broken quests... and disappearing NPC's. So I created mine as best I could to be inside the settlement budget with as few mods as possible. Since then I have not had a single problem with the game.
PS Thank you for the nice little birthday present. Everyone likes to have their work appreciated.
Downloaded, installed, It's pretty dang serviceable and a good way to set the place up with out having to mess with it yourself. I recommend this for anyone who wants to set and forget but also its a good thing to give the spot some more flavor.
This settlement always gets attacked in my games, so we'll see how this evens the odds.
I am glad you like it. 'Set and Forget' is a nice way of putting it. For all of my settlements if I get a notification of an attack all I normally have to do is show up. The turrets do the rest..
