Ok I know this isn’t supposed to be a section to beg for stuff , but I’d like to have a either 2x2 or 3x3 plot that starts as camping tents and houses 4 or 6 settlers based on plot size.
level 1 tents
level 2 still a couple tents but also part of a frame for a basic structure
level 3 either a cabin like the base game ones imagine sunshine trading co op or a basic single story structure with 4 to 6 beds based on size.

I want to use something like this as a base starting housing and then as more settlers come the old settlers can move into their own single homes or better multi Settler plot. Guessing far harbor would be needed for the tents.
 
Although I have absolutely no modding experience, from the way that Kinggath pitches it, his new toolkit will make the creation of this fairly easy. Might be fun to have a go at it yourself. It's a decent idea, although that would be a heckuva lot of beds in one plot.

I don't think any section of this website is aimed at begging for stuff. But yeah, this is one that I think should probably be somewhere else, like in the suggestions. Maybe it's just me but I always thought this section should be more for addon creators to have their stuff shown and to get feedback in case of bugs or other stuff.

Better have money to pay for it lol
While I agree that his wording makes it seems like he's asking someone to work for him, at it's base it's a plot suggestion. I've suggested more than one plot or idea that ended up being picked up. If someone likes his idea it's entirely possible that he ends up with at least some version resembling what he proposed.

yeah its more of a starter plot i guess to just house settlers till you start building a real settlement and yeah 6 beds in a 3x3 is 1 bed per square so maybe its a stretch i guess maybe 4 or 5 in a 3x3 and like 3 in a 2x2. and yeah this is just an idea slash asking if anybody would want to make it not a demand. also it was getting late when i thought this up so i cant always process proper speech and niceties when its late i get morwe basic talk going.

i took a look at the new builders kit but I'm a do by seeing not reading person i would need a step by step video to learn plot making i was getting a headache reading all that.

i would be willing to throw 20 bucks at kingath for the ss2 development team though, i mean I'm asking for something i don't expect anything free in this world. unless somebody likes the idea and wants to do it.

You can look at the old videos for SS1. Most of the building part seems to be the same. I'm in the same boat as you. I learn better by seeing and doing. I have been having reading comprehension fails left and right. I will tell you though, at the end of the day, by learning how to do all the wrong things, you end up learning the best way to do them right! ;)

If I can make a plot with the toolkit, I'm sure you can. I have the creating ability of a lv1 slime, yet I'm pretty proud of the building I put together. The advice I will give you is do not use a 1x1 plot to start with... small = how the 'F' do I fit this here... The other advice I will give you is for your first plot, don't build anything too fancy. Just grab some random crap and quickly slap it together. Learning the concepts are more important than beauty. Once you have the concepts down, then go crazy. The other thing I will tell you is that the CK is a PITA to use. If you have no patience, give up now!

Good luck. :)

Yeah the CK my only experience is redoing precombines and previs for other mods and that’s easy but still a pain due to the CK freezing up when it works so you don’t know if it’s working or not. Also I didn’t know there was a video for ss1 plot creation that should help.

So far in my experience, the CK has 3 states. Not doing anything, normal, waiting for you to kill it... Doing something, 50% of the time it will say (not responding) on the title bar. Most of the time it will come back to life, eventually, maybe... And the last state is the crash. There is never any warning, just a straight CTD. No messages either. I think it depends on the phase of the moon. Some days I'll never crash, and others I can't name a form...

I tried turning on autosave, but that can be a pita with the CK locking up every time it saves and you don't know why and then remember, oh yeah, autosaves.... The best advice is to save often!

So far in my addon endevor... I have followed the tutorial in the wiki and have a stage 1 model built. I can't seem to wrap my head around the process of getting it registered with SS2 so it shows up as a building plan. But, there is a discord with a bunch of people way smarter than me willing to help. If you are going to make an addon, I highly recommend you join the discord.

Thanks for the info on all of this honestly making my own plot seemed imposing but I’ll watch the videos and crack open the creation kit when I have free time at some point. Maybe after watching some creation kit tutorials and the ss1 plot making stuff.

If you have any questions, pm me. I have never made building plans before and I am going through the tutorial. I swear murphy's law likes me. if it can go wrong, it has! I did get my first building made through level 3. Now to figure out this import / export thing... lol
 
@XxA1xX - I do like your idea. I'm not committing to it at this stage as there are not allot of tent-ish resources in the vanilla game. Unlike 76.

But I will keep an eye out for possibilities.

No worries or rush I may try making this myself if I can but that would probably take me a while as work has been busy and holidays upcoming n stuff. Probably fastest I’d be able to look at anything it after Christmas.

thanks as well.

You may want to take a look at https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/30081 it has a "homestead" that does food and a bed, would not be that difficult to add that and the "bunk house" which is a staged 6 person 3x3 together with Tent models.
