I looked up scrap everything and found mention of that line. But nope. No bUseCombinedObjects in my ini file. I am not sure what would be breaking pre combines. I do have a robust load order but it's almost all Sim Settlements stuff and settlement crafting things like G2M, DoitYourshelf and settlement supplies expanded and a dozen or so retextures of items. Nothing that does anything with Finch Farm. The only thing I can thing of that would break precombines is one of the settlement crafting mods. But why would they ? Also, I have three other city plans that have built up to level 2 and 3 with no weirdness. Would that be relevant? Or can it vary from settlement and/or city plan to settlement and/or city plan?
Thank you again for the help. I understand if you're tapped out. Just curious.
