Sim Settlements

Added the ability to put other people in charge of settlements, who will handle buildings and settlers will go in and place their own plots, beds, and other stuff.

Introducing interior plots that can be used within existing buildings or embedded in your own structures.

Add dynamic soundscapes that adjust the environment and background sounds in your settlement based on the plots you and your settlers build.

Tons of new game options.

Rise of the Commonwealth takes Sim Settlements to the next level by putting you in the role of a leader. Now, when you return to exploring the wasteland, you can command others to build your settlement.

The themes of Fallout 4 have always been hope and rebuilding, but the effort to rebuild all the settlements is huge.

Version 3.0 and Rise of the Federation are designed to give you more tools to act as a leader, giving you the freedom to leave and conquer the wasteland.

Settlers build cities:

You can now put other people (such as your companions) in charge of managing settlements. They would build them so settlers could come in and create a city. Like land parcels, cities level up over time and gain enough time and resources.

Create your own upgradeable cities using the upcoming City Designer toolkit, which will allow you to publish your own upgradeable city designs!

Indoor plot:

All 6 core drawing types now support new builds designed to be placed inside existing structures, or captured inside your own creations. They even come in capped heights so you can stack them however you like!

Dynamic Soundscape

Background and ambient noise will dynamically change to reflect the contents of your settlement, so that a farm sounds like a farm, a commercial center sounds like a busy market, and an industrial complex is roaring with the sounds of industry.

Recruitment controls:

You can now control how settlers enter your settlement with an automatic cap, with the option to override the default charisma limit.

Tax Overhaul:

[Optional] The tax system now has a wide range of effects on your settlement, touching everything from defense spending, upgrade rates, happiness and production.

Donation system:

Donate all extra supplies, trash, and equipment to your settlement to bolster your defenses, happiness, and temporary food and water.

Guest system:

As your cities progress, tourists will be attracted to them, making your settlements feel more alive and generating additional revenue at your shop.
