I think it was a random encounter with a girl called "ness" (i think) and she asked me for helping her to raid that crashed plain. So i looted the flight data recorder and i thought it was a nice decoration for my home, so i have put the flight data recorder on a table ind my base. Then i came back after a while and noticed that the flight data recorder was gone. Maybe despawned.. thats why i was asking if this item will respawn :)

Ouch. Ya I store all that misc stuff in a toolbox. Anything laid on a table will stay put at first. Then all it takes is ONE time for the item to load before the table then the physics drops it into the ground or kicks it a half mile away.

Ness is an extremely rare random enounter NPC. I have never met her in person in 1800 hours of time played. The only time I did meet her was when I used console commands to move myself to the random encounter NPC room.

Then of course Ness had the essential flag and was hostile to all the other random enouncter NPCs. Meanwhile all the other random encounter NPCs did not have the essential flag. A real ♥♥♥♥ move by the devs, almost like they did that on purpose just to screw with anyone using console commands.

The flight recorder MIGHT respawn when the loot in the area respawns in 7 or 30 days (depending on difficulty) without entering the cell.

Don't forget too that other wierdness can happen, such as the Gilded Grasshopper suddenly deciding to go home after a short stint on a settlement shelf.

When it comes down to it you jsut can not lay things around as decorations. If you did not build it in the workshop then it can disappear from where you placed it.

My previous game last week I made a pool tabe. I put some cuees, balls, and a rack on it. They stayed for a long time. I am talking like twenty trips in and out of the settlement. Then all of a sudden they fell through the table. Presumably because the cues and stuff loaded prior to the table all of a sudden.

This also could be happening because items were placed, then the settlement went way over budget since placing them so they got bumped.

Stuff quit moving I think in patch 1.4 when they implemented the universal "grab and snap" in build mode... essentially if you can pick it up in play mode, you can grab it in build mode and snap it to a surface.

In theory.

Inner shelves of the smaller cabinets can be a nightmare, even for small stuff, but on larger shelves it works fine. I'm thinking once the positive relationship has been set by snapping to a surface, processing order no longer matters because the physics are treated differently... it's no longer 'this item is located here and is being affected by gravity', it's 'this item has a set location of x,y,z on the surface mesh of object Q'.

If you have OCDecorator and use the OCDispencer from the mod, you can have a static item of every lootable object. So then your stuff won't grow legs and walk away.

ok but my question was: will the flight data recorder Item from a crashed plain respawn? Because it's gone and i would really have it for decoration back. And i don't want to use the console btw

Let me get this straight. You ask for help. Someone posts help and you do not even read the replies?
