How to Farm INFINITE Junk with Scavenging Stations in Fallout 4

Ойындар

Building scavenging stations at your settlements can produce lots of junk over time, however the game doesn’t give you a clear answer on how they work

    Screw this idea. Just use the duplication glitch. It's easy, but tedious until you get about 50k of each scrapped item and you usually never need it again. It doubles everything you have. For example: 1000 steel becomes 2000 then 4000 then 8000 and so on.

    This is a benefit of using the Red Rocket station as a base. Make sanctuary the town, and fast travel point right by the bridge. Put a work station right next to it. Then, instead of going directly home, you fast travel to sanctuary, grab the goodies, and walk home.

    Automatron dlc can give you unlimited settlers in the radiant quests you're sent to in destroying the robots. However, all settlers go to the same settlement. So, if you decide, at a settlement you sent them to, to move one of them: you can't: they all go to whatever settlement. This is why you should only save one person at a time. If you save, say 4 settlers, and send them to Sanctuary but you want one of the four to go to Red Rocket: all four will go to Red Rocket when you send the one.

    So the way I am understanding this is that I need these stations at outlying settlements connected to a hub settlement. Every so often I should take everything out of the workshop of the hub to allow for the outliers to collect more salvage. Now to my question regarding that. Can I put the junk back into the hub workshop and it will be considered from the hub and not the outlier? If so I think that is an ingenius way to collect junk.

If you place ALL your junk into one settlement workstation, and have all the other settlements connected by supply lines, you can build in all your settlements using the junk from your main settlement. Build scavenger stations in all the settlements that DON'T have 100 junk items in their workshop. The settlers assigned to those scavenger stations will produce 2 junk items per in-game day. When the number of junk items gets close to 100, empty the junk, and carry it to your main settlement. Whenever you scavenge in the ruins, carry it to your main settlement, and dump it in the main settlement workstation, (workshop).

    problem is contraptions machines work only when you are in the settlement, so you have already to stay there doing nothing while the machine slowly extracts all junk items one by one. It is way faster if you just take all items in junk category from workbench and store all of them in a container. Plus, junk in a container cant be used to build, so it is useless. when you want to build something big, you would have to travel to all your settlements to put junk back in the workbench.

    I didn't know the actual mechanics of this system of junk management, but I've been doing it for years. Oxhorn let me know long ago that the optimum number of scavenging stations was 3 manned stations per Settlement. So that became part of my Settlement build. I have always gone a little further by using red tool boxes at all my Settlements. I have one near all my Workshops for the storage of RAW junk. During the build process left over components are gathered and stored together in a separate red toolbox. I go the extra mile and periodically move all my components to my Home Base. My Home Base has about 15 or so red toolboxes for junk and other categories of gear/produce near the Workshop. When I come in from a loot run, I put all the loot/gear/produce into its proper red toolbox and move it to the Workshop as necessary, or into my inventory as needed. I don't manage all the Settlements, I let them run on automatic while I manage the loot/gear/produce.

    Now a good question to ask is: How does it calculate the X junk items. Example: If we break down, all of the items gathered. Will it: A) Count each individual Steel, Screw, Nuclear Material, Wood, as an item? or B) Count just the Steel as one item, even if you have 100+ of steel? Since Bethesda is very finicky when it comes to accurate descriptions, even within systems and mechanics on how things work. The Scavenger Station is great on paper, but with the limitation of 100 items, with a full settlement makes them quite underwhelming. Even with multiple settlements, the item restriction gets filled up way to quickly and will grind to a halt. Supply Lines, only slows it down. So this is why it is very important to ask what they actually mean with Junk Items, since Steel, Screws, Nuclear Materials, Aluminium and other building resources are tagged as junk items. So it becomes even more important to know, is it individual, or name specific.

    Unfortunately yeah 1000 steel counts for 1000 junk items, even the smallest scrap components count and it’s so silly

    @@EnvisMavros Sad really, since it makes the Scavenging Station lose effectiveness quickly. Meanwhile a base setup to get raiders of all kinds, will give resources once recycled (Without mods, looting everything, then scrapping them, or with mods, run through the recyclers of manufacturing extended). Though there might come mods to fix that. Either way a great video.

    Questions like this is why I started, long ago, to store the components of junk in a red toolbox. I do this at all Settlements then periodically move the components to my home Base.

    This upper limit info is new to me too and I've been playing almost daily since the game came out. As it happens my OCD has me managing my loot more than just my Settlements. Containers don't have an upper limit on how much you can store in them. I use the red toolbox because it is small and cheap to build. In my Home Base in Sanctuary I have 15-20 red toolboxes scattered out in or just off the edge of the carport which houses my Workshop. All other Settlements have 6 or 8 red toolboxes. I place them in the same places with the same contents for every character I play with, so they are all the same because my memory IS limited. This way I have everything divided up into different categories that helps me keep track where everything is, when I put things into storage and when I want to get a certain item out of storage. But that is just me. I'm a control freak with the stuff around me. BTW, the mailboxes and some of the furniture in Sanctuary (and a few other Settlements) are actually containers that periodically spawn loot. I generally move that particular furniture out near the street or where it is easy for me to check relatively quickly. Once every week or two I make the rounds and collect that loot to add to my pile. Also the containers I make do no spawning or despawning and the settlers don't get into them. I also put the sit-down furniture outside so I can easily find the unemployed settlers sitting on their lazy butts instead of searching the entire Settlement for them. Now the only reason for them to go inside a building is to hide from me or go to bed.

    So ... if you have junk you can build things. If you don't have junk you can't. Cool. There is an automation system to help you collect more junk that increases linearly as you get more settlements. If you have too much junk you can't get more junk, but nothing in game tells you about these mechanics (bad design). What does connecting settlements do to alleviate the junk issue? This doesn't make sense. Connecting settlements gives you access to building supplies, but not the items within crafting stations. So, if settlement A gets a full crafting station ... then no more junk is farmed there ... and you're in the same situation. What is the real solution here? You have to periodically go to each settlement and pick up junk? Is there an ideal way to break junk down? I know it happens automatically. Are you supposed to drop shit on the ground and scrap each thing individually or whatever? There should be a way to automatically junk things as they're inserted. Maybe specific items need to be dedicated as "always junk". I don't need to worry about coffee cups or used ashtrays anymore ... just break that down. Let me decide about .... the cola bottles ... whatever. Just like there should be a system to lock things so you cannot accidentally give a thing a way or junk it.

    If you just scrap all the junk and only keep junk in it, you wont hit the cap. Its not 100 items, its 100 different stacks of items. So you can have 99 billion wood and as long as wood is the only junk you have, youll still gather new junk
