From what I understand, yeah. You just wait. And wait. Then, when you're done with the waiting, for a change of pace, try waiting.
Did she have any trouble with the settlers once she built up Hangman's Alley?
I built it up too with a 3 story above ground hotel complete with beds, lights, bar, trader, tables chairs. Nobody will go near the bar and the person I assigned won't go to the bar stand. I put up crops on the one end that gives you access to the river front and assigned settlers but none of them will go near it. I even have two brahman and I put up a water trough for them and they won't go near it. They all congregate underneath the hotel where the workbench is.
On a side note, I got a notice that Hangman's Alley was under attack so I fast traveled. When I got there they had killed one of their fellow settlers and when I searched him he had synth components. That was the first time I saw that happen.
So after gruesomely muted wring everybody at Red Rocket and eating and burning all the corpses to a [censored] crisp, I decided to move to Abernathy Farm and this place is amazing on thing is the red arrow is pointing downwards for no reason at all can someone help me again please?
No ones 100% happy. The mechanics aren't broken and are working as intended....
not getting the achievement is just another disappointment that is life...
( joking )
