Laundry Day

Since the game has dirty and clean versions of many things in Fallout 4, you would think its a no brainer to maker a system for washing and drying one to make the other... well then you'd be wrong. It is a bit more complicated then it sounds.

Luckily I've done the hard work and scripting for you with this mod. Chuck Dirty Clothes, Abraxo, and some clean Water in a washing machine, then go do your thing for a bit. Come back and toss it in the dryer and boom, nice and sparkly clean just like it was pre-war.

Or to have a bit more control, and immersion craft the soaking tub and laundry stations. This requires a presoak phase and a bit more hands on time to clean or dirty clothes, but it does make more sense... I mean we are talking about 200 year old stains in some cases, a little presoak will do em good. Toss clothes, clean or dirty in the tub to get the 'Wet' version, then craft that to the clean or dirty form. This method also has the advantage of costing acid+antiseptic per item, instead of the slightly more rare Abraxo. You can get the components nearly anywhere.

The machines are properly scripted, to essentially scrap your clothes and armor into a unique component for you to craft with. It was a pretty annoying figuring out most of the differences between FO4 functions, and Skyrim, especially since I  was shooting in the dark most of the time. However this was essential to avoid having to edit Vanilla lists. As it stands this should be compatible with anything, all elements added are unique so nothing for other mods to clash with.

And here Atlas@Gaming did a mod spotlight for it, so can hear it from them instead of reading my boring stuff, yay!

What they all do:

The Soaking Bin will Wet items so they can be properly Cleaned, Dirtied, or Dried at other stations.

The Dryer will Dry a load of Wet items back to their appropriate wearable state.

The Washer will turn a load of Dirty Dry items into a Wet Clean versions.

The Laundry Station is a crafting bench of sorts, where you can wash Dirty Wet items into Clean Dry ones, Soil Clean Wet items into Dirty Dry ones, or Dry any wet item back to its appropriate wearable state. There are also a few combinations you can do here while washing and dirtying that are not available with the machines, such as patching a damaged dirty hazmat suit. The other advantage of using the station over the machines is materials. You can use the Acid + Antiseptic to wash clothes Vs the washing machine requires a proper box of Abraxo. Also by building and using a Soaking Bin you save on water, and time. The Laundry Station has another bonus, in that if you have robotics expert 1 and Nuclear Physicist 1, in becomes much cheaper to build
