Restricted Fast Travel

[ALT08]

I'm limiting my fast travel usage for the first time this playthrough. surprised at how much immersion and enjoyment it adds to the game, esp. on hardcore.

Unfortunately, as far as modding goes it seems it's all or nothing - fast travel anywhere, or disable it entirely. I think restricting fast travel to major outposts or stops along caravan routes could strike the perfect balance between realism and convenience.

Are there mods I'm missing that achieve this? on the other hand, if I were to create something like this what are some good stops to keep open?

Then don't use it? You have no idea how often people complain/whine about an optional feature that "ruins their game" or some other hogwash.

On a brighter note, good for you. I personally do like to not use fast travel although getting pounched by Legionary Assassins gets routine.

When did I say it ruined my game? I made the post to ask people if they knew of mods that did this or if they could contribute ideas.

Not directed at you. If it did, then I do apologise. We do get "fast travel ruin gaem" every now and then although it happens more in that other Betty game forum.

If you are using hardcore, then fast travel is restricted to your needs. I too haven't seem any I between for fast travel mods.

One alternative is using vehicles. There are mods for cars and bikes and can be limited by needing fuel, but then you run into the problem of getting around the map too fast. Running critters over is fun though!

Perhaps the best alternative is use a bit of role play. Maybe only use fast travel if you're carrying a small amount of equipment or something like that.

you could also get the mod that lets you fast travel anywhere, but you might get random encounters.

If you were to restrict fast travel you may want to limit it to just places where you have a home or just a place to flop.
I normally don't fast travel in other game but the FO series plants are hard to spot except for a few. It is on my return trips that I collect such things.

Have you tried searching for as mod that enables fast travel ONLY after you've been to the area once?
I know there's one like that for Oblivion, so it stands to reason that there's one for FNV, either that, or just make your own set of rules/restrictions and stick to them

Uh, pretty sure that's what the vanilla game does.

LOL, DERP, been a while since I played it, I keep starting it up, but my current character is in the Honest Hearts DLC and that's my least favorite of the bunch, maybe I'll just start over and skip that one
