How to transfer resources between my settlements?
Hi all.
I played a lot in this game previously, but i forgot 1 thing.
When i make a new settlement all my gathered resources are in sanctuary, i even can not see them at that actual workshop panel where am i. Is there any other way to get these components there, or i need to bring them "manually" ?
+ 1 more thing: when i brought sanctuary a lot of ventilators, typewriters and put it in the workshop panel, the game can not see it as a component (i think because it is not "breakdown"). Do i really need to drop everything out and "downbreak" it myself manually?

Thank you for your answers!

Go up to a settler and press the "R" key to set up a "Supply Route".
From there, you can then establish a supply line between the current settlement, and the one you want.
Afterwards, they'll turn into a provisioner, and they'll share a workshop.


Note:
Modified robots will eventually have their parts set back to default, which is on Bethesda's part.

This.

A sidenote, though: this is how you SHARE resources between settlements, not TRANSFER like OP says. Once a supply line is created between two settlements, both settlements have access to the same resources, and, of course, when you consume a resource in one settlement, you doing it for the settlement network and not just for the actual settlement.

The components only become visible when you try to build something that uses raw materials provided by those junk items, so yes, to immediatelly see whhich materials each junk item yields, you have to drop and manually scrap them.

if you have automaton dlc would recommend you build bots to work as supply runners, human runners tend to die

Negative. Human settlers, including provisioners, are marked as Essential Protected, which means they can only die if attacked by the player character.

Settlers are actually mared as "Protected", which means that player character can still kill them. Difference between protected and essential is that latter group is the one that even player can not kill.

Correct, forgot there were two flags and not just Essential. Thanks for the headsup.

Three flags, but the ghosted flag just makes it so they can't lose health, and can't be damaged afaik
The Gun Runner Vendertron has the ghosted flag enabled by default
