Nice app, and it works well, though: 1 red paint 10 caps, a yellow paint 10 caps too, 10 acid 30 caps, 1 ceramic 1 cap, 5 aluminum 15 caps, total 66 caps worth in exchange for a cap. Where is the convenience?
you should be getting much more than that. I will check into what may have happened for you. So went in and you should be getting 1000 caps, don't know why you would be getting only one
In fact it seemed strange to me, unfortunately at the chemical laboratory it only gives me a cap. I will try uninstalling and reinstalling. thanks for the quick response
If for some reason you still have the issue, try moving the mod to the bottom of your load order. Which platform are you playing on? If you want I can send you my copy and see it that fixes the problem. friend me on your discord and I will send it that way. https://discord.gg/aUQKDat7
Love the idea! It always bothered me that while New Vegas had the quest about the bottle cap machine, the player couldn't actually used the thing. Great idea!
AWP3RATOR Evil D hardkopy marokay My feelings exactly, I actually got the idea recently when I replayed New Vegas. So I thought why not give it a try, I mean with all the raiders and others out for themselves, it seemed only natural for someone to try and do it. I do hope to expand on this concept, i've got some ideas for going further with it.
With the BOS's tech abilities and the existence of Nuka Cola plants already out there, I don't see why it's far fetched to just get one of their manufacturing systems back running and make all the caps you could ever want, so an idea like this makes sense to me. Realistically in a world like this there probably wouldn't be a currency anyway, the most valuable things would be water, non radiated food, medicine and bullets.
This kind of fills a gap as it has always puzzled me why Bethesda would choose to use caps as currency when the nuka cola factory has been out of action for several decades. Most intact bottles would already have been raided or scavenged and nuka cola bottle caps would be rare. At least counterfeiting would be one way of explaining why there are so many shiny new caps:)
That is something I'm working on. The idea is, if you get caught making them, ALL your caps will be confiscated. So you will have to be sneaky when counterfeiting the caps. At this point it's just a thought in the back of my head.
How about an "Agent" that's trying to figure out who's making the counterfeits, sends his lackeys after you once you've used a certain amount of them to buy stuff and you eventually have to deal with him directly ?
This honestly sounds quite interesting. It doesn't exactly feel like cheating, either, since you really have to do something in order to make the caps. Going to give this a try.
Thank you. It is not going to be easy at first because of the scarceness or Red Paint (aka Blood Can). Once you reach level 10 and Blacksmith level 2, you will start finding Red paint in some Prewar chests.

Example: gold
example: silver
example: other precious metals that can be "mined" or "rarely found" . lol
Now ... what happens if you make too many caps using your new toy? You get a bounty placed on your head?
Just thinking out loud
No idea if it's something you can do but......
Perhaps a quest ?

Lots of ideas going through my head. I'm sure to do more with this in the near future.
Going to give this a try.
Thanks! :D
