Theres lots of threads about setlements and in my view this feature is the most problematic right now. Im already disapointed that I cant see a list of my setlers and their respective jobs, but lets try at least discover all jobs a setlement have and how to put people to work in them:

- Agriculture (point them to fruits)

- Defense (assign guard posts)

- Shops (assign the shops)

-Saluaging (assign workshops)

-Making chemicals (assign chemical worktable)

- Suply lines (?)

-?

-?

-?

You can assign them to shops.

Making beer and making Nucas Ice Cold (Job for robot only)

Unassigned workers work as scavengers, apparently. Not sure how it works, though - the loading screen tip made it look like the more 'unassigned' workers you have the more junk would magically appear in the workshop inventory over time.

You can also assign workers specifically to a saluaging workstation to make that work better.

Finally, you can assign workers to supply lines.

How do you get Robot to chill beer and cola?

Greetings.

How do we actually assign them, please? I've not seen the option in dialogue or the stations and from the help files it almost made it seem as though they have to be companions first (which obviously doesn't make sense).

Cheers.

The heck...I played 40 hours and you can assign people to 'workshop'? wtf

enter workshop - click on settler - option bottom left (Command / Go?) - then click on sight you want them to work (Plants for Farming, Lookout post for Guard etc... options will highlight). A message top left says Assigned - move onto next settler.

Hmm, I must not have been looking carefully enough.

I shall give that a go.

Thanks, mate.
