Not finding anything items in the wasteland?
I've been sending dwellers to explore the wasteland alot, and usually have 2 people exploring at all times. But recently my people never find any items, and barely any money, about 800 caps for 2 days explortation, and 0-3 items.

Is it possible to clear the wasteland, or is the a refresh period where new items appear?

think its dependant on your stats, I got more people out than you they got 10 all stats, they find plenty of things. the most useful stat is luck which gives you those random quest locations which is where I find my prime loot.

Simply equip your dwellers with better gear and try calling them in sooner =) I mostly get 3-4 items in 4 h of wasteland exploring =)

my guys seem to load up with the capacity in about 2 days, which is 100/110 items in 48 hours.

or 2-3 items per hour.

I have one person with 9 on every stat, and the Dragons Maw weapon, sent them out with 25 meds, 25 rad and a pet, they still didnt find any items.

maybe you can't find anything if your inventory is full?

Have you messed with your system clock?

Yeah, does that break it?

Yeah, a number of different things are tied to the clock, including explorers. If you speed it up a week, they won't find anything for a week, or something like that. I'm not sure exactly, but when you turn the clock back, the game still thinks the time has passed, because of dwellers that have trained up, etc.

Hm, I will try turning the clokc forward a year, and then go back. It might fix it, or break it more.
Thanks for your help.

The save game editor can fix the clock issue.

Once you have opened the save file, just go to Tools and click the Fix time glitch button.
