📋 About This Mod
Trunk's Malfunction
is a quest mod from the combined efforts of many well known modder to create a mod in one day for charity. This mod has an interesting quest, a companion, a new weapon and a new armor. However, it also referenced vanilla story of Fallout 4. So I made this patch to alter the references to the main character being a concerned parent trying to find Shaun.
This patch works automatically with Start Me Up, so if you chose Vanilla Quick Start, you'll still reference Shaun, but if you take an alternate route, both you and Trunk will not talk about Shaun at all.
I don't know if it can flag this as light plugin, if anyone could do it please tell me
