Settlement Villagers

Post » Sun Nov 29, 2015 7:32 am

What I would like to see is better control over the villagers in the settlement you are in, for eg.

Trying to assign people to the required job is fine BUT remembering who is on what job is difficult, especially if they are just mostly named settler.

Even if you can remember that far and know who you are looking for to assign to the new task you just built, I find myself running around in circles trying to find the damn person (who most of the time is randomly standing on a roof with no ladder or stair access)

My suggestion would be have an option to locate all of the town villagers on the radar for example (turn on and off as needed) and

When in construction mode, hovering over each settler will tell you what they are assigned to if anything.

I believe it would make controlling the settlements population a lot easier.

Cheers.

Build the bell somewhere in center'ish of settlement. Like a dinner bell, it calls all settlers to it when you ring it

I'd like lot more / better assignments interface and options, but pretty sure the 'dinner' bell item was created as buildable thing for this purpose

pro tip. you can see what settlers are doing what jobs by highlighting them in the build mode, what ever they are assigned to will automaticly be highlighted as well.

This is my major complaying about setlements.

Why on Earth Bethesda did not place a simple list of setlers in the corner of the screen with their respective jobs? Hell, I dont even know if theres people unassigned or vacant jobs in my setlement.
