Can't do that as DLC and user added weapons may never be used as they are added at the end of the list.
(2) Best weapon is defined in the priority order of FormList SKK_WAMWeaponListUpgrade which can be editied before a game starts, but not once a game is running as SKK_WAMWeaponListUser and DLC weapons are automatically added to the end list which will be lost.
Ah, I already forgot about that, sorry. Instead of asking you why you didn't do it differently, I should have looked for the reason why you did it. Ain't no low hanging fruit left in SKK mods are there :)
I have spent many many hours trying to optimise the pick best evaluations. Unfortunatly performance (match early/exit) and flexibility (add new elements) totally conflict.
Both Combat Settlers and this mod have a slow but flexible pick best weapon function as its only one element. Armor simply takes too long to evaluate up to 5 elements per actor.
Maybe the list could be sorted by GetGoldValue once, after the DLC weapons have been added? I don't know how well that value correlates with the actual desirability of weapons though.
Something I want to try: every now and then, one settler looks at one random weapon in the workshop, and compares the value it with what they currently have (of the actual items including mods, if that is possible, not the base type). Maybe even split up between melee, ranged and grenade (so they'd try to get the best available in each category).
It would take ages for everybody to get the best weapon (and then would keep re-checking), so not exactly efficient by any stretch of the imagination, but that way I wouldn't have to think about how to order things, which is my main impetus. It might even be worth it to look at the item values, should they be out of wack, and balance them to improve trading as well as settler weapon selection at the same time.
Wont work as the DLC weapons and User list could be added at ANY game load ... sometimes I add DLC during a game. It may only be me who does that, but I am customer #1 with the philosophy of:
Install this non intrusive dependency free mod at any time in any game.
Well, I was thinking that if they just grabbed and equipped whatever armor parts that I throw for them into workbench or whatever container for that purpose, that would be enough. I can't really see myself going through every settler in every settlement and manually equipping them with better armor and doing it manually for everyone and every time I find some better armor that I could give them, because that would be a game in the game and a very boring one.
i don't get why you're whining on this mod page about a game mechanic? have you spoken to bethesda about this obvious oversight they put into their game?
the options available to you are
1. dress them up 2. don't dress them up 3. write your own mod to dress them up
@1ae0bfb8, I know the design of this forum may make it difficult to recognize who are we talking to, but I have nothing to say to you, my reply was for SKK50, thanks for understanding.
forums are funny things - you post stuff, everyone can see it, and are free to comment. as long as the comments are in TOS, and not trying to piss off a mod author you're good.
Look SKK50, we all know base game has limitations, there's no point whining about that and so I wasn't doing that either. One of many reasons these mods exist is to remedy such limitations and all I wanted was to know if there's already a remedy for this particular problem. I was not interested in sarcastic remarks dubbed "correct summary" from people I didn't even talk to. I already have your answer, and I see you have no interest in pursuing the solution for this problem, so I'll simply ask elsewhere. Thanks for your time and have a nice day.
i wasn't being sarcastic when i listed your options. it was an honest post to help you along. i hope you find a good dress up the settlers mod and it makes your game even better.
Hu, it's possible If the settler has a baseball bat and and pistol to upgrade the two instead of upgrading one and returning the other? This is because if we change the global combat style to use melee weapon on close combat for settlers. Or an option to upgrade just the ranged weapon and not touch melee weapon.
Also you can add a combat style holotape that very good idea
Hello and thanks for this great mod I have a suggestion You could add to the menu the ability to tp all the settlers towards you. (I missed some settlers)
Hello SKK, when i'm using "open all actor inventories", it's opening 1 inventory of Dogmeat and then 8 inventories of settlers, even if i have 12, 15 or 17 settlers !?
Then the game API GetWorkshopResourceObjects(pWorkshopRatingPopulation) is not finding the other settlers assigned to that workshop, and here is probably why. Talk to Bethesda about their game design issue.
Thanks for clarification... And if I talked to Bethesda about their work, they would laugh at me, because they already have my money... And I would still be angry ...
"Open all workshop actor and follower inventories"
It's a good possibility to change weapons etc. But for example I have 50 rocket launcher, and I want to change citizen weapon to rocket launcher on (for example) five settlements. Many interactive click needed (and scroll). But true, without your mod this is more harder.
Do you have any idea handle this situation easily? Agan I want to replace all weapons at once in a settlement?

Be aware that some weapon conversions do not actujally report the correct ammo so the settler will not be able to fire that weapon.

Since base game settlers are protected/unkillable armor really doesnt matter.
the options available to you are
1. dress them up
2. don't dress them up
3. write your own mod to dress them up

I wrote only, 10-20-30 (depend on citizen count) window needed (* city count) with your mod, if I want replace weapon for all citizens.
I suggest the simple way for this, for example if needed one (1) window of this.
Thanks anyway for your many great mods!
