I'm just curious, do you actually have a game you're playing with all these settlements or are they just things you build?
What did you use to expand Boston Airport so far? That is an amazing build.
Every city plan I have released I use and for every one I release there are 2-3 that are never finished that are sitting on saves.

I do like to see how they interact.

Everything you see placed around the Airport that is outside of the building area was 1st placed in the building zone and picked up and walked to the new location. Ofen one bit at a time.

With place anywhere and workshop + you can stop time out and you can move fast while building so it's annoying but once you get the hang of it not so bad.

That is totally AWESOME!! I've always been too nervous to add to much outside the building area, but you may have inspired me. :grin
The only thing I don't like about freezing time is the NPC sometimes get in my way.
 
not freezing time it's freezing timeout when you leave the build border you have 5 sec to get back inside or be kicked from build mode while in build mode hit f5 and it stops that so you can go in and out of the build area with no timer.

My bad I didn't read all the words. Yep, I use that, there is also one where you can choose to freeze time, and that's where the settlers get in the way.
 
The only mod I have that impacts the environment is:
Everything else is for building, killing or questing. (And maybe a little cheating :grin).
Since I cant export Ive been thinking of actually playing SS2 so I hunted down this post so I can add it to an adventure build im working on. Fingers crossed it works. Darker Night, Verdant Wasteland, Galaxy/Stars, Moon that changes phases, Improved distant textures. It seems to be a stable buiid :D
 
Some more progress, almost lvl 40 and only now dealt with Kellogg.
Finally met the Nightingales, apparently one of the patients is a Minutemen Medic, when the doctor ironically get sick.
Then succesfully infiltrated the BoS. "Ad Victoriam", as they say. :cool:

Here;s a few from my recent playthrough- though a bit de-saturated to me. I'd really recommend generating your own LOD if possible(as, seen in screenshot #4) as it makes the game look a bit more realistic and detailed.

Showing Danse the brighter side of scientific breakthroughs, then expanding Starlight Drive-In some more, only noticing now that one of my guards has a great view on one of The Ron's billboard. :cool:

↑ Nice. In comparison, my Starlight definitely needs more greenery. :giver:
Just decided to build some interior industrials plots in Sanctuary homes, and apparently the organic material one i've put in Shaun's room have a repurposed crib as part of it, couldn't be more perfect. Another nice surprise. :<3:

So, the chap3 war mechanics allow you to build patrol. A cool but useless feature. Here a patrol going from Red Rocket to SunshineTiding. Walking through a Raiders group but no one aggro. A pity.
