About this mod Machine translation
The goal is to provide more incentives to build various workshop items, thus making your settlement building experience more diverse. This will also allow for food and water production, as well as work in places like airports and mechanic's lairs. Articles by journalists and publicists can be purchased from traders.
V1.7 added crates, racks and kennels to produce items, and added in-game descriptions such as "Generate additional scrap".
Chinese patch:
New jobs:
Reporter - Create happiness and income for settlements (built-in furniture/chairs)
Advocate - brings happiness and security to the settlement (built-in furniture/chairs)

Installation and removal
Use Vortex or another mod manager
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
