Today I Learned (screenshots v2)

[Antoine Soverie]

Not much testing yet but it appears SS2 is compatible with FGEP (Feral Ghouls Expansion Pack). Vault-tec basement was terrifying. And, yeah, Davidson changed a lot...

Is Jake supposed to still wear his helmet after End of the beginning? He never took it off in my previous game as well, and if you try to openactorcontainer and take it off of him, it spawns again. Infinite helmet glitch, yay?

Surely he should wear a helmet on a construction site? Otherwise the safety representative (Mansfield?) won't be happy with him.

O hey, found some city planner rivalry

Spoiler

Also the red camera boxes. I'm assuming those go away at level 1?

And I believe someone else got their hands on the paint @yaugie

I'd be pretty sure that one's talking about Yagisan (as far as I know nobody's shouted me out yet in anything), but still neat.

I don't recall seeing this in here, but apparently companions will try to bust open the door to rescue little Cola. And apparently they won't notice you've opened the door and will keep trying. Piper stopped shortly after this screenshot was taken.

I know this one's reasonably well known at this point, but... today in "special guest stars I never expected"...

Spoiler: [WV] Carpenter House by Myrmarachne level 2

Side note, one of the Creation Club Specials right now was that CR74L Rifle I was still missing... turns out it's a pretty decent little full-auto 'battle rifle', probably about comparable to the vanilla "Combat Rifle" in full auto. Not a fan of it having friggin Pic Rail on the top, but it's nice and chonky and fits the aesthetic/era otherwise.

Sturges, I'm not quite sure that's how you're supposed to industrial-scale purify water, but you're more qualified for this job than I am...



... I wonder if it'd be possible to add one of those "assignment tokens" HQ uses, for the Player Character. Or at least somehow use YOUR stats in those calculations for Department Energy...

 

[Midian]

Apparently Sheffield suffers from the same back problem as Jake.

Spoiler: It's the Chair

He threw some grapes in there and reclassed it to wine maker.

They were caught off guard...

 

[Antoine Soverie]

Is it as awful as they say?

THAT is what my New Sanctuary was missing. She can hang out with the Longs. Dunno what job to give her though... given the state of my settlement network in this game, I can basically just pick for flavor.

Spoiler: ... I've got it. Tax Collector.

Still don't have a Clinic here, but I finally started getting SS2 Unique Settlers randomly spawning, so as soon as I find Carne Asada he can get to work making us some "medicine".

Jake asserting his dominance in the one technological field he's certain he's superior to Lupe in - radio signals.

Spoiler

(the animation of him walking over to sit in the chair at the HAM Radio glitched on me)

If you're looking for depressed or depressing settlers, I'd suggest Javier and Evan from SotC. Even though Javier deserves better. Also the institute lady with an attitude and a dying raider.

look at me, McDonough, i'm the biggot mayor now.

 

[yaugie]

Just got back to Mechanists Lair after a tour of the entire state, and I learned that someone's "sandbox radius" is further than i thought.

Spoiler: Are you trying to tell me something?

Spoiler: Commander Yorks wants his damn pie.

So if you bring back everything from that sunken ship you rescue Raphael from, Yorks and his squad become 'guards' for the Nightingales. Yorks himself idles in the cafeteria, and apparently there's an NPC animation for this.
