How do I earn "Engineering Energy"?

In the quest "How to HQ" I'm on the objective of upgrading the front security system. I seem to be 4 short of this "Engineering Energy" thing. Where do I get more/what do I need to build to generate more?

assign a person with at least 4 PER to engineering with Jake.

My Scrap Logistics category is at a perpetual 0. Do you know how you got yours up like that?

edit I just realized I was replying to the OP for a second time. Im so so so sorry. Still have that scrap question tho.
 
Wow...all the way there? That's such a...pity.
Restarting from the mirror is the only way to get a fresh save with a new load order. If you start from the lift, any bugs or conflicts from the time that save was made will appear in every game you play from that file. But the intro really only takes about 20 minutes, and most of it you can do from the toilet. I have the perfect preset so character creation's just the press of a button.

I don't know that the mirror is so far removed from the lift that it warrants pity when going all the way back.

I’ve got it to around 18-20 mins to go from creating my character to exiting the vault , I collect very little after getting out of the pod I grab 2 new vault suits all the ammo stim packs and Bobby pins I can the rest I leave you can kill or run through the first few batches of roaches.

and saving your player preset makes it super easy. I used to start from the lift but would have issues with stuff like that specifically because I change up my mods pretty often to try new stuff. I normally keep a pretty basic load order for everything then just add stuff I want to try like weapons armor and stuff.

I also will delete saves doesn’t matter how long we have all played the game long enough that saves shouldn’t be something to get upset over deleting , I deleted a 72 hour one once cause a settlement build was pissing me off.

At my most recent "vault exit" save my playthrough was at 22 minutes. I still have the exit save from my very first playthrough. Game time until I made it out of the vault: 97 minutes. I'm so ashamed.
 
Yeah it used to be like 45 mins cause I would wander around before entering the vault and then wander the vault. Now it’s all business.
