Patch 1.0.7 - "City Plan Level Up!" - is live!

The in game mod screen and load order doesn’t do a good job with the finer details. For Skyrim and fallout 4 I’d use vortex or mo2 to manage your mods and load order along with loot and fo4edit for cleaning dirty mods and dlc. I personally use vortex ( I know some hate it) it allows you to update do overrides and anything else you need along with loading stuff like enb and f4se just like mods , keeping your fallout 4 files clean.

if your on pc there is no downside to using a mod manager to do stuff for you.

^ This.

I would even go so far as to say using a modern mod manager is 100% absolutely essential for any mod list over tiny number of mods.

You need a tool for managing conflicts and load order, and clean uninstallations.

Anyone who says "but I have not had any problems...." is leaving out the "yet" part.
There is a reason the mod managers exist.

A good mod manager helps in finding issues and turning mods on and off;
  • Vortex is powerful, somewhat easy to use, and well supported.
  • Mod organizer 2 is very powerful, not as easy to use, and well supported.

Both are used successfully by tens of thousands of users.
Check on youtube for tutorials by gamerpoets on successful installation.
 
Since this update my plots no longer build. I lay a plot and it shows when hovering over it but it will not build. Any advice?

Likely you hit the build limit in your settlement. If so, you can increase it with the Manage option on your workbench.

If that's not the case, then either activating the ASAM sensor should tell you what the problem is with the plot at the top of the menu, or looking for red icons floating above it in workshop mode.
 
I love sim settlements 2 (and 1). Thank you for your work. I have a heavy mod list but usually everything is ok. I use scrap everything. After installing the last update objects returned to Sunshine Tidings co-op. That is the settlement I started ss2 in. I can't scrap anything other then what is scrapable in the vanilla game. Scrap everything isn't working. No other settlement is affected. At the same time I updated I also installed hud framework. I was in Sanctuary when the game loaded with the new update.

Did you make a save before upgrading? If so, revert your mods to the previous version, load up your game and move to an interior location like Home Plate. Save and put the mods back to the updated version. Load and give it some time for the update scripts to run. Then see if your issue is still present.

Nexus has been having some issues the last week or so with downloads for me , seems they have been working on updating stuff involving faster download speeds for premium members but I also noticed their site was down the other day and today it was super slow.
