Build High - Expanded Settlements 5.0

Build High - Expanded Settlements 5. 0

What does it do?

- This mod expands the building areas of all exterior settlements (including the Far Harbor and Nuka World ones) and The Mechanist's Lair.

(No Vault 88 support, sorry... )

- The Mechanist's Lair is extended to include the WHOLE facility.

- Gives you a simple but accurate border around the new zones. You can even pick a color. (If you find one that you like of the six I give you...)

- Includes a way to avoid object culling when scrapping large objects.

- Enables you to use the full potential of scrapping mods without ini settings.

What's changed since the last version?

- Object culling is disabled in all Build High settlements to prevent distant objects flickering in and out of existence when large objects are scrapped.

- The use of combined meshes is disabled in every cell that a Build High settlement touches. It allows you to scrap things you normally wouldn't be able to.

(You don't need to edit your ini files for these any more. More on these two in the Scrapper's Patch section.)

- All the Build High settlements have been restructured to cause as little impact on the game as possible and to ensure compatibility with other settlement mods. It will work with most overhauls and expansion mods without overwriting each others' borders. (Build High's settlements are quite big, but should you come across another mod that's even bigger, you can install a borderless version.)

- The Covenant buildable area is enlarged.

- Sanctuary's buildable area is streamlined. It is now even larger and its border is perfectly aligned to that of Red Rocket settlement.

- Some settlements didn't have their sandbox area altered in the previous version. (This is what defines where settlers will do stuff on their own, i.e. outside the assignments you give them.) These are corrected in this version.

- The 'Blue (Default)' tile's colour is tweaked for better visibility in brighter lighting conditions. Other colours are updated as well. Even if you don't like them.

NEW MODULE: Build High - Builder's Patch

- Gives unlimited budget to all Build High supported workshops. (So no, no Vault 88...)

It uses the script from Settlement Limits Slashed, the author of which gave permission for free use as can be read on the mod's page.

I made it compatible with all Build High modified settlements and so it works with the fixed workshops at The Mechanist's Lair, Home Plate and the Boston Airport.
