Old Post Industrial Revolution Tech Tree Discovery *SPOILERS*

I'm using Horizon. Maybe it did something?
The synths and the ghouls were difficult indeed, though.

Here's the funny thing, I scanned the Institute Teleporter Room and had no synths appearing
 
Nope. Just have them in the same settlement, then Crystal Mine should have Solar Tower upgrade available. All 3 buildings must be in the same settlement

Thanks, I now have the Solar Tower built.

Any clue on how to get the HELIOS status to ONLINE?

there is someone saying on the table that is necessary to have 20-25 large solar panels only connected to the solar tower plot... but i couldn't done it, i dont know if he is lying or my game has bugged...
recomend to try it (for SCIENCE).
 
Does anyone else think that there should be a way to reveal the plot types in the tech tree? I'd bet that a lot of users don't ever experience the huge Solar Tower, and there are enough mysteries to solve as it is.

Too much great content is locked behind puzzles and game performance optimizing and sleeping for 24 - 72 hours. Tip, always sleep at an indoor cell such as "prydwenhull03".

Also, my Nordhagen Beach cell is crashing to the desktop, is it possible to completely nuke and refresh a cell with a settlement while in another cell? It's probably an auto-build-city/buildings issue, and I've watched it go from level 1 to level 3 without being able to access the cell.

Also, is there a lot of content in the VIP buildings/settlers that is difficult to access? What's the best way to actually experience these VIP settlers?

Does someone know what to do in the circuit lab and can help me?
I'm stuck in the "Computer Research Assistant" quest. I have re-activated the facility by hacking the terminals in the correct order. I also found 2 encrypted holotapes and used the 'input' under Mr Genius and got 2 "personal log #1 holotapes" back. But now the quest stays for more than a month ingame with the note "Check back later to see how research progress is going" and nothing new appears. Any hints on how to progress? Do I need to wait longer?

Oh, I missed the second encrypted holotape and the personal log.

But it hasn't updated for me either. In discord someone said that this questline isn't finished yet.
 
How often should the new Body Armor facility be making ballistic fiber? I've had it four days and it hasn't made a single thing.
 
Tool and Die Shop

I noticed the farms in that settlement upgraded but i have looked around and tried waiting days and they haven't as far as i can see - do i need one Tool and Die Shop per settlement with farms?.

Yes. You need one in each settlement you want L4 farms in.

Thanks for the info. Good to know that I need to wait for the patch :)

yeah, the missions and the best secrets are a bit overkill to get, cfinder for example i think no one where able to get it...
just to get the solar array:
more than 5 advanced plots
entire cabot questline
force alien random event
enter institute (or another advanced plot)

it could be more simple or easier....

it wasn't a bug, i'm an idiot, all my solar panels were turned to the wrong direction, i have forgotten how helios is on fallout new vegas
 
Can the tower be in another settlement than everything else?
Right now, I have everything at Starlight, but I'm running out of space...

If you can build Tech Salvage, Advanced Weapon Facility and Crystal Cavern via tech sharing, you only need those 3 plots to build the Solar Tower.
