Thank you! I appreciate your support. Definitely more to come!

You don't know how many times that I have wondered that exact same thing!! Why were there cars and people still at the drive-in the morning that the bombs dropped??? There seems to be a little oversight by the developers!

The music is from the YT audio library - American Frontiers by Aaron Kenny. It is definitely a Herculean task to fix up Sanctuary!

Needs more flavor? What did you have in mind?

Thank you! Now if only we could make them stop hammering!!

Thank you!

You’re welcome and thank you too! Aligning things without mods can be frustrating so I’m happy that the video helped you. I’m glad that you are loving settlement building - I’ve never grown tired of it myself.

Thanks! I love that this game allows everyone the freedom to design their settlements however they want.

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Thank you! Ideally, I think this location is best suited for a player home - it gets a little crowded if you have too many settlers in a fairly small space. Glad that this inspired you - hope the build goes well!!

Awesome! Thank you! Happy building!

Thank you and welcome! I appreciate your feedback too! I only recently started to post no mod, no glitch tutorials and tours and plan to do more (my older videos are mainly my FO4 with Sim Settlements 2 City Plan Contest entries).

@@cryingcube2 I’ve enjoyed all the videos I’ve watched so far 😎 I don’t use mods or glitches in any games so I definitely look forward to more of these lol but yes of course I wish you nothing but happiness and success!

Thank you - I really appreciate your support! It’s good to know that the videos are helpful to viewers!

Thank you! Glad that I could give you a few ideas for you to use in your game!

Thank you! This is my Sim Settlements 2 City Plan contest entry in July 2021 (wow that was actually 3 years ago 😲). If you are using Sim Settlements 2 with Fallout 4, I updated this City Plan on Nexus Mods to include some of the Chapter 2 plots (sanitation and hospital IIRC).

@@cryingcube2 I'm on Xbox, I play with no mods, like the glitches like the rug glitch & WiFi glitch. I build everything myself, I like to look on YT for ideas 😁

YT is a great place to find ideas! Happy building!

Thanks! It was only out of frustration from not being able to build anything that I liked on the other side that made me look at the back. I also like that the street is along this side - it kinda makes it look like settlers might have actually used this as a stable structure to build against.

Thank you!

Thank you! The build order to get everything to snap together is frustrating in this game - glad that tip helped. I agree with you on the window options with the warehouse set - as an alternative you could also use the 1/2 barn or warehouse wall on the bottom with the 1/2 greenhouse glass wall on the top.

Others disagree.

lol! Glad you like it!

Thank you and thanks for your suggestion. I've thought about a decorating tutorial but wasn't sure if that would interest anyone. I will add it to my list!

Thank you! I've tried numerous times to build something similar to what I built on the back, but the front side of the screen is curved and uneven which causes collision issues in a vanilla build. However - I have been studying the front side to see if there is something else that I can do with it. Not sure at this point what to do - but I would like to do something with that huge eyesore.

Thank you! The use of railway cars is very interesting for an apartment build. Pathing has always been a problem in this game. I was really hoping that the next gen update would fix some of the pathing issues so that the settlers' movements would be more realistic.

@@cryingcube2 You're welcome. Thank you for the reply! I really enjoyed this vid. Yes the pathing is wonky. ha sometimes it works, sometimes not. I figured since the cars were there, to remove the cars and use railboxes. It worked when it worked After I removed a wall. ha

You're welcome! The railcars are definitely a great idea because the train tracks run right next to that settlement - so they make a lot of sense to use there.

Thank you! I also appreciate your feedback on the music - although the You Tube audio library has a lot of choices - it's difficult to find something for this type of video.

@@cryingcube2 the music was nice and not at all districting from the video. Definitely a direction to stay with.

Thanks again - I really appreciate your feedback - it's the only way I know what is working and where I can improve.

Thank you! Great suggestion too - it would be easy enough to swap out some of the solid barn walls with wall with holes or even add some warehouse walls. There is a variety of railings that could be used instead using the same railing. That would give it a scrappier Commonwealth look.

That is a good idea - it provides both housing and protection! Very cleaver - thanks!

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Oh wow! Thank you, glad this worked for your settlement. To be honest, I don't like the red color of the barn tiles (a more neutral brown color would work better IMO) but they work well for some builds. This whole structure could be built with the warehouse instead of the barn tiles but it looks better with the barn tiles.

Thank you and thanks for your encouragement!

Thank you and your welcome! Glad you like it!

LOL! Wonder what the exchange rate for dollars to bottle caps is??

lol! I can see that - creative! 😂

I have tried many, many times to do something with the front side of the screen but was never able to do anything with it. The backside worked because it is fairly flat and doesn't cause collision issues. The existing structure below the apartments could be used for additional living space too. Thank you - glad you like it!

@@cryingcube2 I wanted a guard house there, with guards on top, and bunks in the room, but the guards all stand on the restrooms on the front of the pavement. I have a stupid set of npcs.

The NPCs are known to have pathing issues in this game and they might not be able to walk in the storage room by the street? However, I like your design idea for that area!

@@cryingcube2 Thank you. Yep, the apartments were next to the drivein, and faced the screen where I shot off fireworks.ha Pathing is an issue for sure.

yea - I was hoping the at the next gen update would fix some of the pathing issues!

Fantastic! Glad to hear that this helps you! Thank you!

@choochooelectric7381 Ahh thank you! I really appreciate your support!

@laurelkromer5756 Thank you so much - I really appreciate your support!

@@choochooelectric7381 201 🎉💜

@purple_sim Thank you!

Ahh - I'm sure you're not giving yourself enough credit! Thank you - glad you like it!

Oh wow! Thank you - glad you like it!

@@cryingcube2 I really do, very creative use of what is otherwise wasted space. Well done.

Thanks again! I appreciate your comments!

Thank you! I appreciate your comment! (Sorry no deathclaw available for this video 😊)

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Thank you! Glad that you like it! Yes it is no mods and vanilla (with DLCs). I did use a console command to increase the settlement build size though. Your comment about the glowing deathclaw made me laugh! I forgot that it was there! The settlement got attacked before I started the tour and IIRC it was too heavy to drag away - so it stayed.

@@cryingcube2 Without console commands, you can always drop and scrap items like raider armor etc. Dropping the items doesn't add to the build limit used, but scrapping them does remove from it, so you will slowly but surely free up build limit this way. (for the any poor console plebs out there)

Thank you for adding that comment! You are right , this is a good way to free up building space (maybe a better way?). I think the rule is - the more complex the item that you drop - the more build space you reclaim. It takes more time but can be used on consoles (as you pointed out) and you can control how much space you free up too.

No problem at all! I really enjoy using the Sim Settlement mods (especially Sim Settlements 2) but they are not compatible with any scrapping mods. I completely understand their appeal but never used them in my modded builds. I've learned to build around the annoying hedges and bushes even though I think in real life, you would probably chop them down!

@@cryingcube2 Good to know. I'm currently using SS2 and also using Scrap Anything and it works for me so far. I'm still getting used to SS2 and have yet to complete Sanctuary Hill with it but it's a work in progress. Can you expand on why those two are not compatible? Maybe I'm missing something. Thanks...

Unfortunately I don't know why they aren't compatible but there is likely good information on this topic on the Sim Settlements 2 forums: simsettlements.com/site/index.php If you can't find what you are looking for - you can also post a question - they have a lot of experts can help you.

@@cryingcube2 Thanks for the info I will check it out...

Thank you! It's one of my favorite settlements - it would be a nice place to live!

You bring up thought provoking concepts! Thanks for your ideas and comments.

@@cryingcube2 Your welcome, happy to help... I'm very new to the game, playing 60 days, got heavy into modding and got overwhelmed so taking a small break for a few days to reconsider what mods I really need vs the ones I'm currently using. Also still trying to figure out which is better, Vortex or MO2 as each has their ups and downs and neither seems just right LOL... If that makes any sense...

Careful with deleting/uninstalling mods mid game (if you are doing that) - it can cause all kinds of problems. Choosing mods can be very overwhelming - there are endless possibilities which can allow you to play the game anyway that you want. With regard to MO2 or Vortex, Gopher has a few tutorial videos that might help you decide. You can find his videos here: www.youtube.com/@GophersVids

@@cryingcube2 Oh ya, found out the hard way of changing mods mid game, started over 50 times already LOL... Yes I already followed GopherVids and enjoy his content, thanks for the link... Vortex is easy but can be limiting where as MO2 is not easy to figure out what's wrong so I'm back and forth LOL...

Thank you! I totally understand dreading to build here! I think this has to be the least popular settlement in the game. I hope that this has given you ideas and inspiration to build here!

Thank you and you’re welcome! It took me awhile to figure out how to do this - so I thought it was worth documenting and sharing. Hope it helps you in your game!

There aren’t a lot of good furniture choices that came with the base game and DLCs. The Creation Club has a modern furniture add-on but shaker would be a better option. The modern furniture doesn’t fit my current building style.

Thank you - appreciate the feedback!

Perfect! Glad this inspired you to build at Coastal Cottage!

Thank you! It’s definitely one of the worst settlements to build but it has potential when it’s finished and decorated. Glad you like the finished product!
