Settlers Moving and Taking Items

Post » Mon Jan 18, 2016 8:41 pm

So I have really enjoyed the settlement creation in this game. As such I have build several different building for my settlers, one of which was at the Castle. For my soldiers there I had like an all ranks club / bar. In it I had all kinds of items that went along with a bar setting plus a few things to do to relax and wide down from a long day of patrolling the wasteland. One such was a magazine rack filled with magazines I had picked up. Well after a few days time I noticed they started to go missing off the rack... Also the Nuka-Cola's behind the bar and some food items were missing...



Is there any way you can keep all your hard work decorating for your settlers from being tampered with? I mean if they borrowed to like "read" the books and returned them that would be one thing but as far as I can tell the items go totally missing.



Thanks!

Depending on a variety of factors, placed items can fall, from racks, shelves, tables, etc, as well as actually sink into other items.



Odds are, your missing items are close to where you placed them, but underneath or hidden by something else, such as furniture or even the flooring.



I've never had settlers mess with stuff, well over 300 hours in, with over 500 settlers; neither have any placed items become truly lost, only "misplaced".

OK thanks! So one more question i have also seen what ur talkng about how items get like stuck half way in the table or turn over sideway or other things is there a fix for this? Is it a bug that might have a future patch?

Sometimes using Build Mode to place items seems to work better; otherwise it's kinda hit or miss, maybe something that will get patched.
