Uncapped Settlement Surplus

-- Intro --

You may have noticed that your farms stop producing food, your array of 20 industrial water purifiers stop producing water, or your settlers stop collecting scrap unless you regularly empty your workbench.

In the vanilla game:

• []Crops stop producing food if total amount of food in the workbench (where food is any item with the ObjectTypeFood keyword, see image) exceeds 10 + settler count.

  []Water pumps and purifiers stop producing surplus purified water if total amount of water (purified water, dirty water and the drugged water from HalluciGen) exceeds 5 + 0. 25 settler count, rounded down.

  []Unassigned settlers, and settlers assigned to a scrapping station stop producing scrap if total scrap exceeds 100 + 5 settler count. A single unit of scrap is defined as any component, or any item that can be deconstructed into components (all junk). Yes, that means even if you only tear down half a dozen trees and leave the wood in a workbench, your settlers will decide their work is done and never scavenge again.

  []Fertilizer production only works with the first 3 brahmin at a settlement, any more have no effect.

  []Vendors only produce up to 50 caps per day in each settlement.

  Annoyingly, this behavior is intentional.

  This mod removes these limitations: water purifiers continue producing water even if you aren't around to babysit them, farmers continue to produce surplus food, and so forth.

  -- Config --

  As of v1. 2, Uncapped Settlement Surplus includes a configuration holotape that will automatically be added to your inventory. All configurable features can be controlled from this holotape. These are:

  • []Feature toggles for food, water, scrap, fertilizer, and bottlecaps. Disabling these reverts behavior to vanilla for each resource. (default: enabled)

    []Configurable caps for food, water and scrap (default: unlimited)

    []Attack reducer settings, as described in -- Attack Reducer --

    []A reset utility, which resets all of the mod's active scripts  (for use after installing settlement mods)

    []An uninstallation utility, which shuts down all active scripts and renders the mod (arguably) safe to uninstall

    Note that for technical reasons, like other mods (e.g. Settlement Management Software), for full functionality this holotape must be loaded into any physical terminal that accepts a holotape. Some limited functionality is still available from your Pip-Boy, however.

    -- Attack Reducer --

    In the vanilla game, food and water items stored in your workbench increase the probability of random attacks occurring at that settlement. Enough units of food and water stored -- roughly 1000 food and/or water items with 0 defense (increased by 10 items
