This mod makes Rhonda (who can be found in the same place as always) a recruitable companion for Dust. Repairing Rhonda requires the same check as the vanilla game (a science check of 60). You will still have to convince Rhonda to join you however, requiring a charisma of 7. If you can repair Rhonda but lack the charm to recruit them you'll always be able to find them at Black Mountain. Rhonda has normal companion functions but lacks health regen, instead having a dialogue prompt to repair in dialogue (requiring a hammer, wrench, and scrap metal and electronic(the two tools are not consumed)). Rhonda also has some dialogue in universe regarding the situation (and a secret "quest" consisting of a hidden dialogue prompt that can only appear if the player has discovered certain notes.) Rhonda is fully compatible with my previous companion mod and can be recruited alongside the dog, providing a bigger incentive for charisma builds in Dust.
The final thing I have to note is i'm pretty dumb with scripting, when backing away from the console to repair Rhonda you can't re approach it. I removed the DoOnce but that made the menu trapped so this is what it is. If someone wants to make a patch or something go nuts. Finally, there isn't any audio. I don't know any good ai models or anything about that community but again if anyone wants to patch it in or send me files then go crazy I think that'd be cool.
Fully functional but might get updated in the future.
