There is a way around the settlement cap that you outlined. After defeating the Mechanist and sparing her life, you can get unlimited quests from her called Rogue Robot. When doing the quests there is a good chance you will come across three settlers at the target location. Once the area is secure and kill all the robots, talk to one of the settlers and you will be able to send them to the settlement of your choice, no matter the population or your charisma level. However, you will not encounter settlers in every mission. Sometimes you will find others fighting the robots instead like members of other factions. A hard save is recommended before doing each mission, in case one or all of the settlers die.

Supply line provisioners also act as a patrol. Give them a good gun with 5 ammo, maybe a molotov, and an armor if you are really in good mood. You can use this to send their patrol lines through locations you need them, for example having all of them go to Hangman's Alley near Diamond City then your guys will be everywhere in Boston, frequently. Also you can have 3-5 supply lines along similar path making that path safer a little bit for you.

Mine tend to become tanks as the game progresses. Especially when traveling through tougher areas. I also always equip them with mining helmets if possible. This makes them easier to identify while on the road because outside of the quarry almost no one wears them. They use common routes, so it isn't uncommon to see a group of them traveling as a convoy. They will also use healing items like stimpacks. The effect is instead of being knocked down during a fight and just sitting there, they pop right back up and continue.

Another good food and water tip. Settlers will eat and drink stuff that you put in the workshop if they don't produce anything themselves. So a place that is tough to grow crops, like Hangmans Alley. You can just dump pre war food you find out in the commonwealth and the food counter will go up. The caveat is...they actually use it. So it will be gone and the number will drop back down to zero. This is a fun added element if you want to roleplay as a hunter or whatever. Anything you cook yourself and then dump in a workshop, the settlers will eat. You can amass a ton of food just killing and cooking. I have tested this multiple times and it works. it's really cool feature nobody talks about. You could TECHNICALLY have your restaurants provide food by buying all the cooked food and then putting it in the workshop. Or go on grocery runs every 7 days to the super duper mart and grab all of the prewar food and store it in a workshop for the settlers to eat.

Here are some other suggestions that are usually not covered in such videos. Like 'Mover the Mouse' said, make your trade routes all filter to one settlement. I usually call this the "Primary Settlement". In short, this is the one you like to visit the most. Sanctuary is usually the default, but Castle, Spectral Island, or any place with lots of water and food is best so you can get the goods easily. Making a grand large settlement is great, but for some (including me) running around a large town to sell goods can get tiresome or annoying (especially if you are overloaded). Your Primary Settlement should have the workstations, the shops, and your personal quarters (if you make one) all close by so you can make quick drop offs and go back to killing or salvaging. This does not need to hold true with other settlements. Making some personal quarters for yourself also helps. Keep it so it's hard for other settlers to reach, like put settler quarters near the farmland or a bar. They will usually go for the nearest bed with easy access. Make your quarters to your own liking, but a good practice is to use display cases. Why? Weapon storage and armor storage. Why search through a long list in a toolbox list for the gun you want when you can just go to a wall and get the gun you need by sight. It's easy on the eyes, allows you to swap weapons quickly, and makes a decent decoration. Keep various types of guns in this weapon's room since you get different types of ammo. Run out of one ammo, swap out to another gun, and move on. If it's in your personal quarters, take a quick nap afterward for an experience bonus. Quick and simple. In short, you want EASY AND QUICK ACCESS in your Primary Settlement. Whatever you like to do, put it close to where your character spawns, preferably near the workstation. Concerning armor and clothes, I recommend making separate safes and boxes. I usually put a floor safe next to the workstation so I can store special items I don't think I'll use but keep in case I want them. Clothes I want to keep are put in some drawers near the workstation. Mannequins are good for armor you plan to switch out quickly. Put them in front of your Clothes Store and you got a display area for your store. Also, Settlers are dumb! They love to clog up stairs or passages (and get stuck on roofs or through elevated floors). When making a staircase they need to use to another level, put another set of stairs next to it. Make multiple entrances. Small single passages into areas (like an entrance to a bar) always makes a large clog of people. Settlers need lots of space unfortunately and are too dumb to figure things out. These are some of my suggestions.
@keithsavagelives4 ай бұрын
Excellent suggestions! I do things very much the same. The main difference being, I try to make every Settlement that developed. Each unique, but all capable of being THE primary settlement. I only got Automatron recently, so the Mechanist Lair concept wasn't possible for most of my (long) playthrough. I did the (historically accurate) keep your supply lines short method, where no single Settlement has no more than three lines radiating from it. I have very few problems with multiple provisioners arriving at once. Nor do I have the robot/happiness problem, except at a few places where I deliberately set a sentrybot as a guard. Doesn't matter, really... When those places get attacked, the Sentrybot and turrets annihilate the assault. All the "new" supply lines since getting Automatron use robot provies emanating from the Lair. So now my set-up is a hybrid of the two.

Settlers can watch up to three guard stations. This might even them out with turrets for effective defense of a settlement, but the tradeoff is that for smaller settlements that NPC might be better assigned to food production.

The only way settler, provisioner, NPCs, traders can die is: if they are seriously wounded they sit down. They are not targeted directly by anyone from that point on. BUT area effects still harm them. So to avoid such losses 1. don't use missile turrets if you got settlers. 2. don't give them grenade, missile lanucher, Fatman 3.

Yeah I only wall for roleplay purposes. They don't always spawn inside though. I also use a mod that lets you move the attack spawn markers. They only spawn inside if there is no clear path to the settlement center marker. But if you move the markers far enough outside of you walls They will spawn there first and then try to move in. The way to fix the spawning is to create a chokepoint in your wall. As long as there IS a way in your settlement it will lower the chance of teleportation.

This is in reference to having purified water: You can sell your purified water at traders around the world map to offset the costs of buying shipments of supplies. Die note, you deposit those shipments with the “store all junk” button when you arrive at that settlement location. Your character will remain to have those shipments until doing so. Or you can store specific shipments to workshops by storing that specific shipment in it. Purified water is also great on survival. It will allow to heal during combat. You can drink multiple waters at a time to increase your recovery rate. I sometimes do this to out heal strong DOT like poison of Mirelurk Queen

Every item your settlement produces is limited. So purified water, mutfruit, melon, etc. If you remove those from the workshop inventory they will refill it again. Food ones can be depleted, used remotely through supply lines by cooking, using them for recipes. The rest you either empty manually frequently or you won't get any yield.
@jamescrouchet12835 ай бұрын
Crops and water are a balancing act since the more water+food production you have, the more often that settlement gets attacked. You can counter that with a high defense but early on that means investing a lot of the components you get from scrapping junk. Later in the game, any defense above 100 does nothing to reduce attacks. Scrapping armor and weapons -- at an armor or weapons workbench, not by throwing it on the ground and scrapping it -- produces a lot more components than typical junk, including adhesive. For turrets, early on it's better to build more Mk 1 MG turrets than fewer Mk1 HGM turrets. The MG turrets fire faster and with more of them, they take down enemies faster, even though the HMG does more damage per hit. They also cost less circuitry, a component that is in limited supply in the early game. For example, if you are building a defense of 40 that will be 8 Mk1 MG turrets for a cost of 64 steel, 8 circuitry, 16 gears, and 16 oil. If you get that 40 defense from 5 HMG turrets it will take 50 steel (but steel is easy to find), 10 circuitry, 10 gears, and 20 oil. Those 5 HMG turrets can't cover as many approaches to your settlement and they are slower to take down enemies in any attack you help fight off. Later in the game you can build much more powerful turrets so the math changes. BTW, the most effective upgrade I've found to help settlements fight off attacks is to arm everyone with automatic weapons. It doesn't affect the settlement defense rating but in any attack you help defend against, it quickly takes down attackers before they can damage your settlement. Automatic weapons seem to work much better for this than arming them with high-damage simi-automatic weapons. Don't give them rockets launchers, grenades, flamers, or a fat man. Don't even store those in the workshop because they can find them. They will damage the settlement and maybe kill you. Instead, store those in individual containers if you aren't going to carry them or scrap them. For supply lines I recommend spoke and hub because it keeps the links simple. I have had supply lines bug out because the links were too complex and some settlement weren't getting supplies even though they were linked to the network. Spoke and hub has always worked flawlessly. Also, use humans, not robots for provisioners. Robots can get bugged sometimes if you try to rearrange your supply lines, especially if you have the Automatron DLC. HTH

Can take a while to get the Sharp items in a play through, but throughout your game you will get them. Once you have maxed out your settlers using the 10+Charisma method you can then also continue to take the Rogue Robots quest from Mechanist/Ada and you will get to know which locations lets you recruit settlers, these settlers recruited through this method don't need the Charisma check, so you can go beyond the 35 or so that that check allows. Just remember though, settlers will leave if they have no jobs. So food/stores(bars/clinics etc) and then a good way to have more jobs is the Junk station (under Resources>Miscellaneous) , just remember to clear those junk items every 7~10 days. Putting settlers on guard posts at this point is also a good way to make the settlement look more active and defended. Remember also that Robots will bring down the average happiness in a settlement, but using them as Provisioners based out of the Mechanist Lair is a great way to get around that, as they won't affect the happiness of other settlements that way. Also remember to move the caps and purified water out of your workshop every few days as well, as it caps out and no more will gather, so definitely keep collecting in the early game when you need those caps most. All stores in your settlements share a Caps pool, once one merchant is out they are all out, but still invest in them so you have a bigger Caps pool to take advantage of. For recruiting the unique merchants, try to get this done early game, before going near Ada to start the Mechanist DLC as once that initial fight starts the spawn points for unique merchants will most likely be taken over by Rust Devils.
