Old Post Scrap Everything / CS

[MadGax]

I have a few question on Scrap Everything / SC
I have read through Scrapping Mods/Performance Issues and a multitude of other threads and understand about precombines and previs.

If we don't use ini setting "buseCombinedObjects=0", is it "safer"?

If we are conservative with it and only use it on buildings, is it "safer"?

To avoid navmesh issues, would avoiding scrapping foundations make it safer?

Is Clean and Simple safer than SE?

Is CS safer if I don't scrap items I know I should not scrap?

Afaik SE is best scrap mod to use.
Yes you can use it with SS but any city plan you design will require anyone else who uses it to have SE installed, and that can be too much for some peoples rigs because scrap mods always cause performance to take a hit, that's why it's not allowed in the contest.
Between SE and Place there is zero reason to disable pre-combined, unless you are using non vanilla settlements and even then it's just not worth it, the performance hit can be way too much for even powerful rigs.

Never use the scrapall cmd if you have scrap mod installed as it can really mess up pathing in a settlement.
