Known issue but unsolved : supply lines.

[ALT4R]

I heard some stories pretty close to mine but topics were all lost and abandonned, so I hope I'll be luckier.

I get a really strange supply line I cannot disable :
It links vault 88 and Tenpine Bluff.
But it was after I assign a Jamaica Plains settler to Vault 88.
So I moved the settler back to vault 88, and the supply line doesn't disappear.

Even more strange and annoying : it affected saves made BEFORE I assigned the settler to the supply line, so all of my characters saves are corrupted. I don't know if it is only an ugly bug or will have consequences, and as I mainly play crafting with this character it is really annoying...

To be precise : the settler I used was one of the vault 88 first settlers (the long hair one).

Update : I loaded an old save and the supply line now indicates a link between Tenpine Bluff and Jamaica Plains. But there is no settler in Jamaica Plains and my settlers in Tenpine are all assigned to other tasks.

I don't have a solution to your specific problem but what I did was chose one settler from each settlement and made them the provisioner to Sanctuary. This maximizes the number of settlers I can have at Sanctuary and all other settlements. I had no issues doing this.

FYI, my trade route map looks like a star radiating from Sanctuary if that makes my method any clearer.

I'll try it, because it's becoming a mess because of that bug. I don't understand why bethsoft doesn't adress that kind of little issues...

If you're on PC you could try the Settlement Management Software mod, It comes with a tool to remove all supply lines connected to a city.

It will disable the achievements :( but thanks it's good to know !

I also have a suggestion regarding saved games ... If you suspect a glitch, exit out to the main menu and then reload a save that way. Using quickload or loading a game while playing may not remove any strange anomolies.

Also, proceed to those settlements in question and go into workshop mode and wait about 5 to 10 seconds, then exit out of that mode and check the pipboy. That sometimes updates the settlement and can correct gltiches.

EDIT :
My best suggestion is to run the Settler Management console that we got with the Vault 88 DLC (power, misc), since it will crunch the numbers and perhaps even correct any problems simply by forcing the game to read the data. Drop that console in the settlement and have a look at what jobs are being shown, any extra supply jobs will be obvious but you'll have to reset those jobs.

It worked !!!!! THANKS :D And even better...

When I used it in Tenpines Bluff (don't ask me why but Jamaica Plains didn't worked and Vault 88 neither, it was coming from Tenpines Bluff why absolutely no reason) the only one caravan I had was making a link to Red Rocket. But the settler came back unemployed... But the path stayed ! And when I used it in Red Rocket, same thing, a caravan to albernathy farm came back. And now I have 2 supply lines for free and 2 more settlers.

I dislike this kind of glitch though and I hope a patch will come.

It really seems to be coming from the Vault Tec DLC
