Workshops and dwellers

[Jon.Topps]

Seems to me that the SPECIAL stats and amount of dwellers is irrelevant for my weapons manufacturing. I had a guy with high A, and it was the same time as having someone with low A. I had two people, and it was the same as having one.

Is there no way to speed up the timer for making stuff like that?

it speeds up, assuming the weapon is an A weapon (depends on the weapon)

a room full of dwellers with the right stats seems to cut build speed around in half over regular speed.

you could, alternately have multiple workshops and make several guns in tandem.

Weapons use diferent stats. Are you 100% sure the weapon you were crafting was Agility ? and not another trait?

I ask because i did that mistake at the begginging, later, when i noticed that, i saw a diference if all the dwellers making weapons had the correct trait at high level, with bonus clothing.

I'm currently making a strength baased plasma rifle, and its crafting time is much lower with every dweller working the room instead of just 1.

It's not an A weapon, or it might be, but I don't know how to check I guess.
When I drag dwellers over each room, it shows what trait is needed for the room. For the weapon room it says A.

Either way, removing a dweller from the room doesn't change the timer at all, so I'm guessing traits aren't affecting production times either way?

They do. You're just doing it wrong.
