Bug NPC's not responding to their assigned jobs

Post » Sat Nov 28, 2015 10:29 am

So I built an Armor Store and Weapon store and place both booths next to each other in a shack I made. trying to be fancy ya'kno?

I assign one settler to the armor shop, she went to her new employment with a smile.

I assign the second settler to the weapon shop and he stands like staring at the water pump like a dimwit. I kinda wanna fire him and when I mean fire him I wanna shoot him with a missile launcher haha. just kidding.

Is this some kind of bug that everyone else is experiencing? I tried many different methods to get around this. Moved the shop next to him didn't work, moved the shop an empty area with no defense, assigned a different settlement with hopes of a better resume but still failed lol.

Just something to highlight and hope you guys in Bethesda will take notice and tune out this issue :)

(also pip boy does not activate sometimes. had to save and reload game to get it to work.) Still enjoying the game tho! and wonder if there is any... girl on girl relationship by any chance?????? ;)

Your's truly,

I am experiencing the exact same issue. The first two stores I wanted to open up in my town where armor and weapons vendors. I created the appropriate teir one stands. Assigned to free settlers to the job. The person I assigned to the armor stand worked perfectly. The person assigned to the weapons vendor acknowledged the request and then stood there looking stupid. I have tried every trick that I can think of to get him to actually stand at his post. I've tried moving the stand , removing and re-adding the stand, Tried assigning different settlers to the stand. Tried moving him physically to directly adjacent to the stand and then assigning him. The problem at this point in my gameplay seems to be related directly to the level one weapon stand. At least in my game. Interestingly enough I can still buy weapons from the vendor even though he's not standing at his post. So while not completely crippling it's more annoying since I don't always know where to find him

I did read somewhere, cannot remember where, that the level two Vendor stands do not suffer from the assignment problem. I will attempt to confirm this later today.
