Workshop tab on pipboy giving wrong information?

Post » Wed Dec 16, 2015 2:04 am

I only just discovered that you can monitor settlements remotely. This seemed like a good idea - it actually seems weird to be managing the settlers outside of it, e.g. allocating them on a spreadsheet to defense/maintenance/farming etc.

But it often reports weird things, like that Covenant has no defense!

So i rush there, expecting it to have been hit hard - and the place is fine.

There's no tutorial or help files. Do settlers automatically repair items? Should the workshop tab be ignored?

Does this happen during gameplay, like the changes don't update? What happens when you restart the game and app, does everything match up?

Hi. I have same issue with desyncing settlement data in pipboy and when I in that settlement. Values in pipboy sometimes get completely invalid:

1. Settlement size mismatch (10 settlers in workshop, 14 or 0 shown in pipboy, 1 provisioner) or settlement shows 17 settlers in workshop but there are only 12 + 1 provisioner when i call them with bell and wait for them to gather. . May this be related when settlers killed during attack? I've found two Settler corpses near gate.

2. Beds count mismatch (I have 15-20 beds in each settlement) shows 1 or 0 with exclamation icon.

3. Defense value mismatch (I have over 120+ defense each settlement), 0 or 5 value shown.

After I fast travel or enter that settlement pipboy shows valid info. After some time outside it breaks again. No mods or any changes.

P.S. Is there a forum/tracke rwhere i can post whole list of found bugs?

Sounds like an issue for sure, at least it does resolve at some point so there's probably just a bug in the sync/tracking code.

Post in the bug index page, I think the devs are monitoring that :)

Include what steps you take that temporarily solve the issue.
