WHAT IS THIS

This is The Harbor Bee!
My careful reinterpretation of the fabulous Monorail To Spectacle Island mod by KriticalGuy:




  • New scripts, new textures and new meshes for tripleplusgood immersionsmaxxing.
  • Like the original mod, this does not break precombines.
  • It does have 2 overrides, used strictly for even more of that sweet, sweet immersionsmaxxing.
  • The Harbor Bee is designed to fit loosely into nexbil01's Commonwealth Reborn Continuum.
  • This mod made with all permissions and does not require the original mod.
  • This mod has genuine voice acting by the talented Veta Phoenix. No generative AI was used during its making.


New in V1.2: There are 14 workshop buildable ad billboards for The Harbor Bee in Wall Decorations/Misc:




But but but you want the monorail to look more "wasteland jerry rigged trash can style", and less "it came fresh from the Lexaco assembly plant in Lexington"? Easy, friend: Click here to download the original mod by KriticalGuy! You're welcome!

NOTES

  • Requires NukaWorld DLC. Make sure you have it.
  • If used with PRP, load this mod *before* it.
  • If you have mods that edit the castle area or the island, and you get flicker: Try loading this mod before that/those mods.
  • If you want navmesh:
  •  you can either use the navmesh module from the original mod right here.
  • or, you can choose the optional "integrated navmesh" plugin and have it overwrite the main plugin.
  • Do not use the LOD files from the original mod with The Harbor Bee, it is not needed.
  • You'll find the monorail behind The Castle, see pictures for reference.
  • A ride on the monorail costs 10 Caps, Frequent Monorailer Miles are awarded.
  • The monorail goes out of service when stormy weather comes up in your game.
  • It'll show NO SERVICE on the car, the orange hazard lights come on and the green lights on the call panel turn red.
  • The doors will auto-close during the storm. But: You can still enter the rail car, just push any of the Door buttons.
  • Being inside the car protects your char against radiation damage from Radstorms.
  • Once the storm subsides, The Harbor Bee will return into service.
  • If you use any weather mod, weather sensing may not work. 
  • Edit the Monorail_DarkWeathers and Monorail_StormyWeathers formlists in the mod to patch for this!
  • DarkWeathers cause the station lights to turn on; StormyWeathers shut the monorail down.
  • I have added patches for Clean And Flat mods by  Basil44, version 1.2.2 and version 3.1 to optional files.
  • Safe travels and please remember to endorse the mod if you like The Harbor Bee. Thank you so much!



    KNOWN ISSUES

    • The Monorail can't brake or accelerate smoothly. An unfortunate limitation with the havok animation for movement.
    • Due to engine limitations it's not possible to have working seats inside the moving car. There is no known fix for this.
