The Better Homes and Bunkers Player Home Mod Series Volume 5: The Somerville Place Trailer Player Home
This mod adds a furnished and functional trailer player home adjacent to the Somerville Place settlement. The trailer is placed just outside of the settlement build zone so it will not interfere with settlement building. The interior cell player home is a small, quaint, highly detailed and decorated space with many scripted interactive features.
PLEASE NOTE: This mod adds a pre-decorated interior cell player home to the Somerville Place settlement:
- There is NO workshop mode in the interior cell!
- You can not assign settlers to the interior cell!
- You can not dismiss companions to the interior cell!
- This mod was made for my own game the way I wanted it, and I will not be making changes or taking “requests.”
Most items are static, but there are a several lootable items and containers.
Because of the small size of the interior cell, I do not recommend bringing multiple companions or power armor inside. If you have Dogmeat as a companion, you can command him to use the dog house outside the trailer and he will stay there.
Requirements:
This mod requires the following Fallout 4 DLC: Far Harbor (DLCCoast) Nuka World (DLCNukaWorld)
This mod adds a furnished and functional trailer player home adjacent to the Somerville Place settlement. The trailer is placed just outside of the settlement build zone so it will not interfere with settlement building.
To gain access to this player home, you must first be in control of the Somerville Place settlement. If you are not in control of the settlement, the door to the player home remains locked. Most of the exterior features are also not accessible until you control the settlement.
The exterior of the trailer features a large wooden deck with functioning lights, a power armor station, cooking grill, seating, a radio, a functional Nuka Cola vending machine, and a house for Dogmeat that can be changed to a couch and back again. There is also a bathroom attached to the deck with a functioning shower that when used gives a +2 Charisma boost for eight hours.
The interior cell player home is a small, quaint, highly detailed and decorated space with many scripted interactive features, armor and weapons workbenches, a chemistry station, a cooking station and much more. It’s the perfect place to relax and get away from all those whining settlers.
I see this home as more of a way station to be used during missions to the Glowing Sea and southern regions of the map, rather than a permanent main base. With this in mind, coupled with the limited interior space, the trailer does not have all the bells and whistles found in other homes in this mod series.
The mod features:
EXTERIOR/GAMEPLAY:
- Discoverable map marker - You can fast travel from the interior cell - Custom loading screen - Functioning exterior lighting - Power armor station (linked to settlement workshop) - Cooking grill (linked to settlement workshop) - Trash Compactor unit that breaks junk items into their base components and transfers them to the settlement workshop - Working shower gives +2 Charisma boost for eight hours - Working Nuka Cola Vending Machine (make purchases with Pre-War Money) - Dog house for Dogmeat – Can be changed to a couch with an activator button - A radio receiver that plays Diamond City Radio - Furniture for you and your companions to sit and relax - All containers are flagged to not respawn - Deck is navmeshed for companions with many idle markers
You will not be able to use the exterior lights, bathroom and trash compactor until you control the settlement and open the trailer door for the first time. AFTER you enter the trailer for the first time, you will be able to use these features.
INTERIOR:
- Custom collectible magazine that adds a random component shipment to your inventory - Custom design chemistry, armor, weapon and cooking workbenches - Two inventory sorting systems: one container-based, the other terminal based - All workbenches are linked to settlement workshop - Functioning light switches for main lights, desk lamp, workbench and stove lamps - My First Infirmary unit: restores health, removes Rads - Bed that is personalized with player’s name and gives the Well Rested and Lover’s Embrace Bonuses. - Terminal is personalized with player’s name - Working refrigerator with custom Nuka Cola textures: Insert any Nuka Cola, Vim or Gwinnett beer variant and it will be come Ice Cold with the associated buff in six hours - Interactive storage units: Weapons storage, ammo shelf, liquor and food shelves will display clutter when items of each category are added. Clutter will deactivate when container is emptied - LOTS of storage! All containers are flagged to not respawn - Fully navmeshed for companions with idle markers
Custom collectible magazine:
Like the previous mod in this series, Better Homes and Bunkers Volume 5 includes a brand new custom magazine to add you your collection. The magazine is located on the kitchen counter and adds a random component shipment to your inventory when you pick it up. Note that Wood is NOT one of the components that you will get. There is more than enough wood at Somerville Place you can get from scrapping trees, so it seemed silly to add it to the leveled lists that spawns the component shipment.
VERY IMPORTANT INFO THAT I’M SURE SOME PEOPLE WON’T READ: Once you have control of the settlement (when you get a notification that you can use the workshop), go to the red workshop workbench and activate it by using the key you have bound to interact/activate objects. Then exit workshop mode and go to the trailer door.
You MUST ACTIVATE THE LOAD DOOR TWICE to unlock it. The first time triggers the door lock script and it runs an ownership check on the workshop. If you own the settlement, the script removes the lock. Activating the door the second time opens the door and loads you into the interior cell.
Also note that the exterior light, bathroom door and trash compactor are coupled to the door unlock script, so you must first activate the unlocked load door in order to unlock these features. After you have entered the interior cell for the first time, these items will be accessible for use.
Using with other Somerville Place settlement mods:
Since the trailer is located completely outside of the settlement build zone, the potential for mod conflicts should be minimal. Your mileage may vary.
That being said, this mod does regenerate the precombined mesh and previs data for the settlement cells. Any additional mods that modify the recombined/previs data for the same cells will conflict.
As with anytime you use multiple mods that modify the same cell, there is ALWAYS a potential for conflicts. Even though the trailer is not part of the settlement build zone, there is always the chance you will run into problems using other mods that modify the Somerville Place area.
I don’t use any Somerville Place settlement mods so I haven’t tested any. You’re on your own for that. I also have no intention of making compatibility patches...you’re on your own for that as well. Sorry, but I can’t get into supporting mods that I don’t use for my own game.
Using this mod in an existing Somerville Place settlement build: Ideally, the mods in this series should be used in a new game but there are no real issues using them in a game with a settlement already built at the location, provided you keep a few important things in mind:
1. Before installing this mod,leave the Somerville Place settlement. Fast travel someplace else, whatever, just leave Somerville Place. Once you are out of the settlement, save your game and quit.
4. Install and activate the mod.
5. Load the save you just made and WALK, not Fast Travel...into the Somerville Place settlement. This will (hopefully) insure the new trailer and exterior objects are properly loaded into your game.
6. Activate the load door TWICE, as described above.
7. Enter, and enjoy your new digs!
Info for FROST players: The mod is compatible with Fallout: FROST v.41. If you use the Unofficial FROST FPS Fix mod, you are likely to have visual conflicts with the precombined/previs data generated by both mods. Adjust your load order accordingly.
NOTES ON INTERACTIVE FEATURES: There is some very important information in the READ ME regarding the interactive features of the mod. I strongly suggest you read it THOROUGHLY before asking questions or reporting issues.
