📋 About This Mod
Workshop Framework added support for a hard settler limit recently. Originally, I planned to use it in an update for my Advanced Recruitment Beacon mod, but that turned out to be more difficult than I expected. So, here is a quick and simple mod to use it directly.
Description
This mod adds a new activation option to recruitment beacons, where you can set an upper limit for settler recruitment. This should just work.
Requirements
Requires Workshop Framework 2. 0. 8 or later.
Compatibility
In theory, this should work on mod-added beacons as well.
If there is another mod which also adds an activation option to recruitment beacons, then these two mods will be incompatible.
