📋 About This Mod
OVERVIEW:
Inspired by the FO4 mod SKK Fast Start Location, this mod allows you to choose a different location to start your journey from rather than the usual one. The options provided are all the far corners of the map, denoted by cardinal direction, all of which should shake up the early-game experience quite a bit. The locations were selected so that you shouldn't be immediately attacked, but beware some places such as the northwestern portion of the map are quite deadly for a low level player!In order to initiate the location selection, simply exit Vault 101 and walk forward a little bit. A message box should open prompting you to pick where you want to go.
NOTES:
-Though the mod is called "TTW Quick Start Locations", TTW Quick Start is not actually a requirement, just highly recommended since it would be pretty weird to go from the full Vault intro to getting warped far away.-Sparse Starting Gear or a similar mod is recommended to give you some loot to start with at your chosen locations. Wasteland Starting Gear DC is a very soft incompatibility because you will be warped away before you have a chance to collect it, however it will remain where it is should you come back later.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Great for veterans who are tired of the same old Vault 101 intro every playthrough.
- Tiny mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat, just a starting location choice.
- Decent download count (7,084) shows there's interest in skipping the tutorial grind.
⚠️ Cons
