How do I get more Allies?

[SoulReaver]

Hello everyone! I've been playing the game for quite a bit now but I'm still having issues on knowing how to get more allies on it or at least improving my friendship with the ones I got as I'm losing them little by little through time.

Thank you!

You donate silver to them. 300 silver a pop and the relation boost is influenced by the social skills of the person doing the negotiations. Expect a 10 to 15 point increase each donation.

That being said, hostile factions will only gain reputation for releasing your prisoners from their faction. You have to do that part first before they will hear your attempts at negotiations.

You mean as in other factions, or new colonists for you to add to your community?

New factions don't show up, but you can increase relations with current ones either by saving one of their downed members on your map and healing them up, then letting them leave the map, or giving them silver when you get a comm console up.

Other colonists just show up randomly. Some drop in escape pods, some call for help against pursuing enemies, but the most reliable way is to capture and recruit downed enemy raiders.

First off with allies you mean the factions around you ? or people living in your settlement ?

if it is more people in your settlement then the storyteller ( depending on who you did choose ) will try to give you more over time, it can be random people walking in a joining or drop pods where you need to save them, those you have a limited time to save or they will die.

If it is factions you ask for it depends what was around you when you started the map

Also ... do you have any mods installed ? this can effect how many new people you get.

Thank you everyone for the replies!

By Allies I meant factions and I have another question.. How do I give them Silver then? also.. I see only 4 factions on the list (2 Allies and 2 hostiles) how do I increase the number of factions there? As on the world map there are more.

Thanks!

You need a comms console and orbital trade beacons with silver
in his effective radius. You need to research "Microelectronics basics" to
be able to craft them.

For factions, you can always use mods that add more...
if you just want more vanilla faction, here:

Oh, and by the way, you CAN'T be ally with "raider factions". (but you can with the other one)
