📋 About This Mod
Put this mod near the bottom of your load order
I found this spot charming, a quiet oasis of safety deep within the storm.
Water, a power supply, sturdy walls, and a fair bit of building space to work with.
I have a hard time thinking of a more hospitable place within the Glowing Sea.
Features:
-
[]Repairable Generator that provides 12 power.
[
]Flooded Lower Floor with enough space for water purifiers.[]Highly Scrappable without the need for outside mods.
[]Lightweight no BA2s were needed for this location and the file is ESL flagged
[]Dynamic Navmesh that adjusts as you scrap.
[]Full Functionality, with attacks that were customized to be ghouls, animals, and insects. No raiders or gunners this far south.
[]Interior Fast Travel
[]Optional Ghoul or CoA Settler Recruitment chosen during installation via FOMOD menu. Vanilla option recruits normal settlers.
[]Optional Fungus Farming File included as a separate download in the files section. Growing fungus here makes sense in my opinion. Not needed if you use my larger Wild & Fresh Crops mod.
Installation
To avoid installation errors please read this short guide.
This mod can be added mid-game. Just don't be inside the garage when you install it.
The settlement can be unlocked immediately by approaching the workbench. Ghoul corpses will despawn a little bit after the settlement is unlocked.
Recommenations
-
[]Interior NavCut Fix to fix a Bethesda bug where interior build spaces share navmesh cuts. Can prevent wonky settler pathfinding in interior build spaces.
[]Ham Radio Recruitment to add a much smaller settler recruitment beacon, well sized for interior locations such as this.
[]Children of Atom Settlers for a fully fleshed out way of recruiting CoA settlers. Fully voiced with custom CoA dialog.

Vault-88 Settler Sandbox Fix
Thanks to PeskyFox for making me aware of this unique little spot.
Adds an interior parking garage settlement buried beneath the Glowing Sea, east of the Crater of Atom. Includes a repairable generator, detailed scrapping, and dynamic navmesh. A niche build site for Fallout 4 players seeking a unique, radiation-themed home base.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Unique location that fits the Glowing Sea aesthetic perfectly.
- Repairable generator adds a nice settlement-building touch.
- Dynamic navmesh means your settlers won't get stuck as often.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 259 endorsements—smaller community, so less feedback and troubleshooting.
- Last updated March 2024—might not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- Interior settlement might feel cramped for large building projects.
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who want a themed, radiation-soaked home base. If you're tired of the usual above-ground spots and want something with a built-in story, this is for you. Skip if you prefer open, flat build areas or need lots of space for massive structures.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an interior cell, make sure you have the DLC that adds the Glowing Sea area (Far Harbor? Actually, the Glowing Sea is in the base game, so no DLC needed).
- Use the repairable generator early to get power for lights and defenses.
- Scrap everything you can to maximize build budget and clear sightlines.
