[Chapter 3] Can’t Utilize Settlers After Recapturing Settlement

Issue is as the post. Just recaptured a settlement of mine, but now all the settlers (some of whom are still labeled as captives) can’t be ordered by me, and any jobs they do don’t count towards the settlement. Should I just kill them all and recruit new ones, or is there a good fix for this?

Edit: Now it has unallied me for no reason. I can’t figure this out at all…

Final Edit: If anyone else has this issue, try and repair -everything- they might need and then some, then stand around for about ten minutes for the scripts to catch up. You may have had to murder some of your captives, but the settlement should function fine after that.

I think it has something to do with some of the Turrets still being hostile after the settlement is captured. Sometimes some settlers will still try to kill some of the Turrets and then afterwards they will return to normal. Time also helps.

Is this from the City Manager holotape?
