Vault-Tec Soda Bug

[Verkland Immortal]

So, after the main story I scrapped EVERYTHING. When I go to change what the Soda Fountain does using a terminal, it doesn't pop up, and it's stuck on the emotion setting. Does anyone know how to fix?

I assumed it was by design - I cannot change any of the Experiment options now I've finished the DLC quest. Hope it is a bug, and can be fixed, as I'd like to have the option to try the other experiment parameters.

Scoob.

maybe try save, load hte save, quit the save or quite the game. all I can think about.

[Verkland Immortal]

I am WAY TOO FAR to reload any save.

If you scrapped the quest soda machine, I don't think you can build another. The prototype items used in the experiments are different than the ones found in resources, and I'm pretty sure that the game won't add it back to the special menu if you remove it, which is why they will only let you scrap them or move them. Even if you could build another, once you have chosen the options they are locked in. I wasn't allowed to change them even when the experiment hadn't actually started yet.

Once you do the experiment (hit the set parameters option), it changes from the special category, and moves to it's normal place in the menu, but you CAN build more (even more than one, I have 3 slot machines right now).

No, I do not believe you can change the settings once they are set. As far as I can figure, they are in the special menu until they are programmed, once they are set, they are a fixed item and move to wherever they are in your menu. For me, I have too many mods that change that, so I got the other mod that moves all of the DLC items to their own category. If you cannot find them in your menus, then I highly recommend you get the "ALL DLC Building independent patch" (it's pretty convenient even if you CAN find them, as it moves 'most' of the new stuff to a single place, making it easy to find).

My 'bug' is that Clem keeps unassigning himself and then reassigning himself when he is back on duty, it might be how others can use it while he is 'off duty', but I don't know... I despise looking at him and seeing the 'unassigned' icon. Now that the 'quest' is over, I just did not trust Clem to run the eye exam machine, so wanted him back on the soda, frankly he is barely smart enough to work that, but maybe Beth did not like/expect that that we might want to move him to something that fits his Intelligence...? (I am not trying to belittle people who serve drinks for a living, I have done it myself, and it can be demanding work, however, that said, working a soda fountain is not rocket science either, and if he messes that up, someone is less likely to go blind).

The vault resource items you can build are permanent representations of what you chose in the experiments.

I hope you chose.. wisely.

And btw, the "wrong" choices can and will kill settlers.

There was another thread with info how to change your choices with the console.
