Hotfix 3.0.3b

have you tried using a mod like settlement management software to move the settlers to other place before going there?

Hi, thanks for the advice! Just read up on it on Nexus.
Would it cause SS issues with autassignments or other conflicts?

(I ask since I finally got back to a 'stable' game.. mostly...)

My experience with SMS is that it doesn't conflict, but with SS it's not as useful.

In some ways it's very interesting, because SMS shows you everything in the settlement that can be assigned. Every bed, every plot, everything. However, it lists unemployed settlers as "unassigned," and if you assign a settler to anything -- including a residential plot -- they display as assigned. So you could have a situation where there are 20 settlers, 3 unemployed, and you won't immediately find them in SMS if they are listed as "assigned" to a residential plot. You'll have to go into each settler's assignment list and find the ones who aren't assigned to jobs.

That part is very frustrating. On the other hand, SMS is very useful when it comes to looking at all the things in your settlement that are assignable but that haven't been assigned yet, and I've had some success (though not consistently) in trying to unassign settlers assigned to caravans when I want to replace them with robots.

check out the mod from eyedeck, it handles a lot of caravan stuff for you so you can just plop a plot, configure and go

Yeah but it doesn't automatically unassign any provisioners you already created manually.

Well i was able to move about 20 'unassigned' settlers from Spectacle to other places without issues.. so ...success!

There's a button for that, actually. Logistics terminal -> Utilities -> Unassign Provisioners... -> Unassign Local Provisioners/Unassign All Provisioners

Huh! I need to pay more attention. :D

That's pretty cool.
