FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q1 - Will you make a version of this that doesn't require Creative Clutter?
A1 - No. Creative Clutter is incredible and I wanted to use its assets as a central part of most of these designs, so no I will not be making a version stripped of those assets. Sorry not sorry.

Q2 - Will you make a version of this that doesn't require your other add-on Jampads 2? I hate it and don't like its name. 
A2 - No. You may notice the file size on this is very small. That is because it uses a ton of assets from Jampads 2, and I did not want to duplicate that and have to maintain two separate sets of archives. Sorry not sorry. 

Q3 - Does this require Creation Club Content? 
A3 - No, it does not. Some unique upgrade options will be available to you if you have it, but it is not required. Almost all of those upgrade options are just cosmetic anyway and a question of style. The rooms still work fine without it. 

Q4 - Why do you keep putting Optional in bold and underline? We get it!
A4 - See Q3. 

Q5 - Will you add X, Y, or Z Power Armor as an upgrade option for displaying power armors?
A5 - Maybe, I intend to keep updating this as I go along and may add some more. 

Q6 - Is this it?
A6 - For now, yes. I do intend to keep adding more options and rooms in the future, as well as HQ Actions such as research, missions, and jobs as well. 

SPECIAL THANKS
This mod would not have been possible to develop without a lot of help from Kinggath, Pra, the SS2 development team, the Creative Clutter team, as their mod provided me with a neverending stream of ideas for these rooms, Munkyspunk, who generously let me use tons of his assets, VFX, who I constantly bounced ideas off of, and many others. As most of these assets that did not come directly from Creative Clutter as a master file, many came from Jampads 2, so all thanks from there apply here. As such, I am going to just repost what I posted there - 


JAMPADS TREMENDOUS THANKS - 
The entire Sim Settlements team and especially XV-Versus and Tinuvia for all of the advice and assistance while I converted my mod, to Yagisan with help testing and for the inspiration behind the Yagisan Industries building plan, for 1000101 for his universal register forms script that has made much of the interplay between this mod and other mods possible, MunkySpunk for giving me permission to use stained glass assets from the Stained Glass Workshop Mod - Unicorn Farts and Godrays - including jojo-ojoj at DeviantArt for creating the stained glass patterns in the first place, Watcherzero for the Ant Queen Modder's Resource that allowed me to have an Ant Queen and Ant Queen Pheromones for THOSE!, Whisper for creating the incredible Standalone Workbenches and Institute Build Kit and giving permission to use both in this mod, Yulliah for creating awesome furniture assets as part of Yulliah's Home Improvements and for giving me permission to use some of them, and to Pra for the arcade terminals and the scripting wizardry that made it all possible. Special thanks to Damanding, MsRae, Frogprincess, Evanpox, and Dinozaurz for the wonderful CREATIVE Clutter Modder's Resource for letting me use some additional assets from the CREAtive Clutter mod, to Rycekaeks for making the incredible Fallout 4 Additions Packs 1 and 2, which this mod uses assets from, and to Mkdo40 for giving me permission to use some food and drink assets from Wasteland Imports!
