About this mod
You can allow Settlers to wander freely in your Settlements during the day without them decreasing the Settlement's Happiness.
- Permissions and credits
A simple mod that lets you allow your Settlers to wander freely (sandbox) in their Settlement during the day without them decreasing the Settlement's Happiness.
By allowing a Settler to loiter, they'll get "virtually assigned": you'll see the green "assigned" icon next to their name in Workshop Mode. So, while they technically "assigned", they won't actually work. They'll sandbox in the settlement area.
Originally, I made this mod for dismissed Companions and Settlers who were sent to Player Homes. Since these "settlements" don't have any work objects, they couldn't be assigned which made them unhappy. This mod can be used for any Settlement though, there are no limiations.
