Why aren't settlers making beds?

[Strykus]

Hi all, I will start by saying this mod has become one of my favorites in recent weeks, even before RoTC so I appreciate everyone's hard work and kinggath's dedication to this immense project.

Back to my question, however, I have both Sanctuary and Abernathy as being controlled my a follower and every time I visit, the happiness is lower because there aren't enough beds for settlers and seemingly, they refuse to build more. Is there something I'm not doing correctly? I think I have everything settings wise set to run autonomously (without the newest patch - updating currently). Any insight would be great. Thanks!

Do you have PCDug's mod by chance? I had to uninstall it recently because the house plots from there no longer generate beds.

 

[Strykus]

Nope, thanks for the suggestion though. What's weird is that there are some residential plots being built and upgraded, just not enough for the number of settlers. Requiring a lot of chems and booze to keep everyone in line xD

Hm, are there really not enough PLOTS? Look in the city manager's desk under Plot Reports. Maybe just the auto-assignment fails?

 

[Strykus]

So looking at the plot report it says there are 8 residential plots (in-line with the 8 settlers, but beds in the workshop menu says 6...

So hanging out in the city for like an hour real time seems to have helped and now there are 8 beds. I assume then, that you were right and that the auto-assigning feature was being weird?

I wanted to take a look at the Plots Report, but I cannot seem to find it/City Manager Desk isn´t working: In the Holotape there is no option for Plot Reports, and when I activate the City Manager Desk nothing happens. All the other activators on the desk are working (Supplies etc), but when I want to use the "Computer", nothing happens. My City is level 0 and the Settlers have put the desk to where it is,maybe that broke something?

You might have to move the planner desk. I had the same problem at the slog lv1 and oberland lv1. The "sit at desk" animation won't happen because the desk is too close to a wall.

Thx, that helped, although the original desk still was visible. I have moved it, not build another one. Lucky me, I have saved the game before moving it, so it can stay where it was before

I've had to teach myself to be more patient and let the angry red numbers happen for awhile while the scripts all get themselves sorted out, paying attention to the Sim Settlements HUD bars instead since those are what control upgrades. It's not the greatest thing to have the happiness drop in the meantime but I guess it's something to do with all the extra goodies from the IR brewery and chem factory I have in my non-RotC settlements.
