📋 About This Mod
Just a simple bat file that makes Trashcan Carla, Cricket, Lucas Miller & Doc Weathers essential NPCs.
In the base game, they weren't even "Protected" meaning random raiders could kill them. This solves that issue by making them not killable. I made this because I got tired of typing all those lines in the console every time I started a new game.
In the console, type "bat EssentialTraders"
Extract files into "../Fallout 4" folder.
Delete "EssentialTraders.txt" from "../Fallout 4/Data" folder.
Will conflict with any mods that alter the Traders' essential status.
