  • --V3 Update---
  • Added labels to all four caravan markers on the worldmap so you can tell who is who. There is a problem in that I can\'t turn the labels off if you change your active quest. If this is a problem use the older V2.
  • --V2 Update---
  • Added ability for uncle roe to give \"quest\" to track the caravans.
  • --Original Readme---
  • Displays on your pip-boy where the four travelling caravans are.
  • In order to get the quest to display the caravan locations, you must find one of the caravans and ask them about their caravan. After that all four traders are located on your worldmap under the quest \"Caravan Tracking\". If the trader is killed, his pack brahmin is tracked until the brahmin is activated/opened at which point the tracker for that caravan is gone. You can also get the quest from Uncle Roe in Canterbury Commons by asking about the town then asking about the caravans (either option).
