HELP? My happiness is broken

[Bored Peon]

So I built up a SS settlement in Desert Island West. Not sure if this is a SS or Bethesda issue.

I did not prebuild so the starting happiness was like 20. Upon the next update it moved to 21 and stayed there. It has bene stuck there for over a week in game.

I started poking around with the GETAV commands. The settlement is supposed to have 82.62 for a target happiness instead of 21 happiness.

I used the GETAV to see what the incremental happiness change was supposed to be and it returned as zero. Which explains why the happiness never moved.

I know I can use modav or setav to fix the issue, but it aint the right fix. Anyone know a way to kick it in the ass so it works the way it is supposed to?

Yeah did a second settlement in the Atomic Crater and same thing, happiness never adjusted.

I used the modav 129157 80 on the Desert Island it brought happiness to 101 and it has not fallen yet.

Well the problem carried over to Sanctuary. I am stuck with 70 happiness.

Again, I could modav the issue, but prefer an actual fix.​

I did find out what may have been the issue. Apparently when I reinstalled the game and reinstalled my mods Vortex did not automatically sort the mods. From the looks of the load order everything after the CC and DLC has a load order of 8. So I am thinking Workshop Framework was loading after Conquest.

It did not fix the problem so now I am stuck trying to guess whether that was the actual issue or not.

Is anyone else having similar happiness issues since the VR Workshop was purchased?

I think I narrowed the problem down.
The scripting is breaking after one happiness update.

I set up Starlight and recruited 3 settlers the happiness went to 60 (because the martial plot was not built yet.) Then after it was built I recruited a few more and it dropped to 55 happiness and never moved again.

So I started another game after disabling Conqueror and just used the 3-in1 SS and the happiness ran fine. So the problem is in the Conqueror.
