Can't use vault tech structures outside vault.

[FuzzyLittleBastard]

Its all in the title bros, does anyone else have this problem?
Is there a point in the quest that unlocks this?
Am I missing something?
Is this a bug?

[Eldritch]

Im having that problem. I also cant build the stuff like the statues, new furniture, or signs/posters. Do I have to unlock those?

I am aware that SOME things cannot be made outside the vault, but I have seen videos where I should be able to do this.

I figure those items will be the actuall vault structures. But I cant even build the statues and stuff inside the vault.

Ive seen that problem before, it might be a mod.

I dont have a mod that messes with the statues/signs menu...so it cant be a mod. And now my specials menu is missing. Im literaly not doing anything and they are randomly disappearing...

Same thing with me and I run my game vanilla. :/

I haven't tried building outside of the vault since before the DLC was released, but I remember hearing that you don't unlock them for use outside of the vault until you complete the quest.

Mods don't have to mess with a specific section to affect it. If you post a list of what mods you are using one of them might be known to cause issues. It would be better to start your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's so people aren't having to keep track of two separate problems. I know you can't build cages from Wasteland Workshop inside of the vault, but I haven't heard of any other items not working.

Sorry. Wasnt highjacking anything.

Okay, so now I can build the dlc things outside of the vault. Im sure not being ablento build the vault structures is by default.

Some stuff is locked to the Vault 88 cell, others not. Soda machine, power bike stuff (i.e) is locked until you unlock the recipe by doing the quest, when you unlock them they are not in the special category anymore, check under the other build categories. You guys/gals should be able to build statues though if you check.

The only way to unlock everything else (structures, new guard posts, etc that are meant to be only used in the vault are) is to use the console and set a global. The console command to set that global is as follows (spoiler) :

set dlc06allowvaultanywhere to 1

The reason why we can't use animal cages in the vault is because the vault is considered an "interior" cell and they added that condition to prevent them from being built.

I built stuff outside Vault 88 just fine. No mods or console commands used.

Ok, cool, it unlocks without using the console (I thought I checked everything :/).

Haha about Rylee but you know how this game works, if it's not one thing it's another. I have a love/hate relationship with this game.

I almost want to say the vault structures are not available outside until after you complete a quest. I remember looking and not seeming them. The talking with Aries he mentioned they were quest locked. I would need o check on a different character I guess.

I have a feeling Rylie disappeared after I went back and finished the quest at Longneck Lukowski's. It still shows her store as being manned though. Much like how Dr. Sun bugged out on me and I can only find him at his house at night after finishing the Earl Sterlign case, which really sucks because only him and Doc Weathers sell rubber shipments.

[UrbanMech]

actually finishing the Vault 88 quests unlocks the vault structures for you settlements.

Yeah, I read about your rubber problem. I saw that Red Dragon was looking into it for his mod. I have some ideas on why but I'm not an expert on the whole thing. A few ideas (idk ideas) ...

A few of the ingredients for the workshop scrap items are missing the suffix "_scrap", in your case it might have to read "c_rubber_scrap" for it to drop rubber. I have a feeling the suffix drives the direction of the drop, meaning without the suffix you might be spending rubber to scrap it, with the suffix you get the rubber back (perhaps) ... idk. Next time you scrap something, note your rubber count before and after and see if it's charging you rubber to scrap it (oh no!).

Another thought was how they go about scrapping, you've seen it yield 50% of the original mats and I have a feeling that it just needs another workshop "scrap" that matches the object you want to scrap ... For example, a v88 large hallway costs 40 steel/10 rubber right? When you scrap it then it only gives you 20 steel right? This tells me that there isn't any scrap list that matches 20 steel/5 rubber (the yield you should get) ... idk.

I'm currently using my "Home Plate Guard Post" as a means to duplicate the problem by doing it wrong and hoping trial an error reveals a solution.
