Moved camp, lost everything.

[Aeden]

I thought once you built a camp structure it could be moved without being destroyed.

I was basically forced to move my camp after multiple worlds had people building in the same spot. Now my camp is gone, hours of gathering and building seem to be completely erased. All I have now is a camp terminal with my stashed junk, but none of my resources spent building my previous camp.

Is all that stuff just gone?

When your camp is reactivated in the location it was in, all of the structures/items you had there should still be there. A bit weird that it got rid of everything?

I never moved, but I guess everything should be in the "stored" tab ?

This, or they are saved as blueprints.

Found it in my stored items tab, now I get to enjoy finding a place that it'll actually fit. Thank you for the help!

Good luck placing the blueprint........ you will need it.

The probability of placing your camp structure back down is very extremely low.

What you can do is break down the stored structure and it will dump all the floors, walls, ceilings, stuff into the stored tab and you can then build using them first before crafting new ones.

I managed to find a spot that it fit, now I'm just hoping it isn't as popular as my last one. Especially considering the servers keep lagging and disconnecting me.

You can create blueprints of said settlement structures.

I did this the moment I figured out how to make them, so now if I ever wanna pack up and go settle somewhere else, I just store the camp into blueprints and off I go.

you could builld a second camp and activate that if camp one cannot be placed. Pretty sure you get two camp slots by default.

It gave a message that I was given one free camp placement since the old one couldn't load. I haven't seen a way to have 2 active camps yet though.

Yeah last night I tried to see if I could create a second active camp in the ashlands, and I wasn't seeing an option to do so (besides completely packing away and moving my original camp, which kinda defeats the purpose of owning multiple camp slots).

At the map, you will notice in the top left a camp box/drop down. Showing all available camp slots for you. Every player has 2 free camp slots and the balance purchased with atoms.

At the camp selector from the map ,activate camp 2 which should say “unplaced”. That will pack up your existing camp and you will have NO camps on the map.

Now go to where you want your second camp to be and deploy it from the Pipboy.

Now, you will always have 2 placed camps available to you. Go back to the menu and just select/activate whichever camp you want to use.

When moving camps, make sure the one you want to move is the activated camp.

Only one of the camps can be active for use at any time. The inactive camp will show as dark/faded on the map but nothing can interact with it at all.

Never ever move the camp when you see the "can't place camp" message when you log in.

Just change servers or activate your second camp.

Learning that now, the game somewhat encourages the move at first. I changed servers maybe 7 times and every time it gave that message. Thankfully my new location is less popular, and I actually like it more.
