do abandoned buildings respawn loot?

[azhockeynut]

naturally there are a number of abandoned buildings to find all over, do they respawn loot? seems they are useless after you find them and loot them. if they do not then why can we not demolish them and recover some of their supplies?

[Abraxis]

I agree, the buildings should be available to destroy for supplies. I have not seen any loot respawn in them. Yet.

On rare occasions, they may respawn some loot. Sometimes this is done by a few small items being added to the building. Sometimes it's bandits or wolves using the building as a hideout. If it's wolves, you'll usually find a 2-3 animals available for skinning (pigs, goats, deer).

Since we can't demolish them because that's not coded into the game, I just view them as decoration. I have a couple near my main village that kind of appear like older buildings from my settlement that fell in disrepair, were abandoned, and money was never available to demolish/replace. Much like in real life. In other cases, I view them as reminders that life in the Oxbow saw some really rough times during an attack. Whether that attack was external or internal (Mirogod has a dark reputation) is unknown for now. Regardless, I just view them as part of the unfolding story.

Wish they could be used more to incorporate into village. That would be cool.

I rather wish them never got included on the map.
Okej ish if you could destroy them, or build around them. But rather not have them.

Yet another thing modding support could do to improve the game.

Looking at Nexus.... There is mods for the game. Mod's will happen regardless if the devs support it or not. Always been like that....

There's no actual mods. Just edited savegames that will likely cause you issues in the long run when the game gets an update.

It's not just savegames. Point being though, players been modding games since well, games was a thing just about, regardless if the devs did suport it or not -)

As for updates breaking mods, that is nothing new either. You have people crying all over steam daily across games for that.

I've looked at them. Almost all edited or old glitched savegames. A few change some settings of UnrealEngine in the ini file. Some are just excel files. The few other that don't fall in that category were reported as fake or not working.

It is different from just your mods being broken by a new update. Since you start from someone else's messed with save, that save will most likely be ruined beyond repair in the long run. Not fun if you want to start a playthrough that spans many generations where you spend many irl hours on.

Everyone that use mods, hacks, trainers etc that modify their game should be well aware the risk they do when doing so though.

Modding support is mainly great for sharing work.
I'm quite certain I'm not the only 1 whom modded stuff outside the saves.
This happens in every game, most well known are the "Hacks&Trainers".

I have to admit I (almost) never upload any of my mods anywhere, saves me the time and effort of having to maintain stuff when games update but that's cause I'm a selfish bastard.

Thread has taken a turn far from what I opened it for. Yet for some reason now, as the OP, I cannot delete it. Mod please delete.

There's no reason to delete it tbh, it might help someone else with the same question. But I can lock it if you like.
