Stuck at 9 settlers
How do i get more? Tried bumping my charisma, but it seems to be very slow. I have the beds, ample food/water, and defence.

build a recruitment radio tower?

Placing a recuitment beacon usually does it, if you've already done that you just have to wait and give it time (sometimes it goed fast and sometimes it goes slowly).

The radio beacon bugs out sometimes. (I think it might be somewhat related to the "missing beds/ water" bug).

So if you have a functioning radio beacon but no radio signal on your pip boy for example, try deleting the tower and place it again, that usually works for me.

The only settlement where this doesn't work for me is Sanctuary for some reason. All the other settlements are growing, but Sanctuary still stays under it's limit, for weeks now.

Recruitment can be a little buggy at times. I left one of my settlement I'd only moderately developed, just 20 food and 3 water plus basic defences, a handful of beds and a recruitment tower. Settler count only went up to 9 over time - I was away all that time - then I returned there, purely using it as a fast travel way point to go somewhere I'd not yet discovered - and suddenly there were the full 20 settlers. I only have 6 Charisma and no Charisma enhancing gear equipped.

So, a settlement I'd basically done nothing with, other that some basic resources and defences, was at 20 settlers when I returned to it hours later. Of course I added a load of stuff to it, trying to get all 20 settlers working, but ran out of wood in my supply network. Oops.

Sometimes you just don't get settllers. IDK if bug or unlucky. Tenpines has been stuck at 11 for ages for me, ive recruited for 3+ whole new settlements by now.
