PA weirdness glitch

Post » Fri Dec 11, 2015 1:39 am

So I've been assembling a set of decent PA armor by mix and matching pieces from several partial sets. The helmet, torso and both arms are T-60, but all I could find were T-45 legs. I had everything modded up E level, with everything leaded as well. Plus the best mods I could make for the other mod categories. VERY expensive in raw materials, but well worth the investment. But then one day I parked the suit at the PA station in Sanctuary just to make a quick run to The Slog and back. The next morning I go to jump in the suit and EVERYTHING had been converted to unmodded T-45A! And when I go to gather all of the T-51 parts that I had in storage, plus a variety of T-45 parts that had been modded to something better than A, when I open the Crafting on the PA station, ALL of the PA parts that I had on me had been converted to unmodded T-45A parts!

What gives? What could possibly cause the program to overwrite my PA inventory to revert everything to vanilla T-45s? Anyone else ever experience something like this?

I've seen another thread saying the same thing, people told the guy to try jumping into it to see if it was just a visual glitch, but didn't see if he tried that/if it worked.

Did that. The armor stayed T-45A.

I had to Load a Save from about 6 Saves earlier to get back to the T-60s. Now I feel obligated to go everywhere in my PA, for fear that in my absence it will devolve.

UPDATE: My wife in her game (on her PC using her own copy of the game) finally found some T-60 PA parts: Torso, Helmet, Riaght Arm, and Right Leg. She improved all of those to D level and then parked her suit next to the PA station in Sanctuary. A couple of fast travel hops later she returned and discovered that the Right Arm and Right Leg had been replaced by a Left Arm and Left Leg, and that all four pieces were now un-modded T-45A.

Maybe the problem has to do with storing the PA in Sanctuary? Maybe one of the settlers there is a practical joker? Sturgis! I bet it was Sturgis!
