Write in Terminals
I've wondered this for a while, why can't you write logs on terminals? There is a terminal you can build for settlements that would be perfect for this. I thought it would be cool to keep logs about your settlement on the terminal.

I think consoles are supposed to hide all that high tek stuff like keyboards. that is why we have duplo blox and 8 bit graphics now on tvs and tablets.

Yeah, I never thought about the consoles but you could write things like how you would write messages to people online or speak into a mic and the text would pop up like phones do.

Next Fallout should allow you to create holotapes and write logs, we need it.

Well TECHNICALLY you "write" a log for a quest in the Railroad, but yeah that would be something that would be handy.

Thanks for the laugh, topic creator.

Video gamers write something worth reading, lol.

Someone will make a mod that makes it possible to keep a journal or something on one of the consoles....there was a journal one for Skyrim that you could actually export.

"Oh hey, Blue sent me an e-mail, Preston"
"Oh, open it. It could offer vital information to the minutemen!"

hopefully someone makes a mod that allows you to play your own music through the loud speakers because that would just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ rock...

FO3 and NV i had the music mods that allowed you to place your own music in the folder so i could run around the wastes listening to Black Sabbath and old school Metallica
