📋 About This Mod
Description
If you have used the Vit-O-Matic from Sim Settlements 2 on Automatron robots, you will have noticed that they have all very low SPECIAL attributes, usually 1 or 2. This is because SS2 resets them after the robot has been built, in order to normalize their rather arbitrary vanilla stats.
This mod does the following changes:
-
[]Sets the basic automatron robot attributes to 2.
[
]Prevents SS2 from rerolling a newly-built robot's attributes.[]Makes certain existing robot modifications boost some of the robot's attributes. See "Optional Downloads" for a full list.
[]Adds new somewhat expensive modifications (under Torso->Misc) to give the robot a +5 to one specific attribute.
[]Adds the Protectron Vendor voice type from SS2 as a buildable voice module. Robots outfitted with it will have proper vendor and even doctor dialogue, and recieve +1 charisma. This voice module will also prevent the robot for asking you about becoming a companion.
[]The new robot modifications can also be bought from certain vendors, if you lack the resources or the perks to craft them.
Compatibility
This mod modifies the base robot record from Automatron, as well as a lot of the vanilla Automatron robot modifications. Therefore, it will conflict with any other mods which also modify that.
This does not modify the recipes of either the base bot, or any of the vanilla modifications. Such mods should be fine.
This mod integrates Automatron robot modifications with Sim Settlements 2, making robot SPECIAL stats affect their assigned plots. With nearly 2,000 endorsements and over 600,000 downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life addition for Fallout 4 players who use both mods. Last updated in March 2025, it remains actively maintained.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: nearly 2,000 endorsements and over 600,000 downloads.
- Actively updated as of March 2025, so it's likely compatible with current mod versions.
- Fills a specific niche: makes robot stats matter in settlement plots, adding depth for Automatron fans.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires both Automatron DLC and Sim Settlements 2, so it's not for everyone.
- Limited to SPECIAL stat integration—if you expected more features like new plot types, this won't deliver.
For Fallout 4 players who use Sim Settlements 2 and want their Automatron robots to be more than just guards—this makes their stats actually matter in settlement plots. Skip if you don't use both mods or if you're looking for a major content expansion.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both Sim Settlements 2 and the Automatron DLC installed before adding this mod, or it won't work.
- After installing, assign a robot to a plot and check its SPECIAL stats in the plot menu to see the changes.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle load order—this mod should load after Sim Settlements 2.
