The Subway Safehouse is a large, subway station themed, old-school style player home located in Boston’s Theater District. The load door is in a formerly unmarked courtyard between D.B. Technical High School and Hester's Consumer Robotics. It is fully furnished and functional with many interactive scripted features and custom assets.

==Description==
Like all of my previous player homes, the Subway Safehouse is fully furnished and functional with many interactive scripted features in the tradition of player homes from Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. 

The exterior courtyard is inhabited by Slim, a Ghoul chem vendor who seems to be an ally of the Railroad. This gave me the idea for the backstory of the Subway Safehouse. 

While the lore I created indicates the Safehouse was to be used by the Railroad to move escaped Synths out of Boston, the player home decor is faction-neutral with only a single Railsign to indicate its previous ownership.

So no matter what sort of character you play, there are no faction decorations to spoil your ‘murshun. 

The player home is fully navmeshed for companions with many idle and comment markers. The Safehouse interior cell and all containers in it will not reset so all storage is safe. All beds give the Well Rested and Lover’s Embrace perks, there is plenty of clean water for Survival mode, and all workbenches are linked to share resources.

All of the exterior cell workbenches have been linked to the Safehouse shared storage used by the interior cell workbenches. That means all of the interior and exterior workbenches will share items for crafting.

An inventory sorting container similar to the one inside the Safehouse has been added to the exterior garage next to the Power Armor station. It functions in the same manner as the interior sorting container.

Slim has been set to Essential so he can no longer be killed by enemy NPCs, and all the loot that was previously owned by him has been set to unowned so you can take it freely without him turning hostile.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS AN OLD SCHOOL STYLE PLAYER HOME...IT IS NOT A SETTLEMENT!!!
*There is NO workshop!
*You can not assign settlers here!
*You can not dismiss companions here!
*You can not create supply lines here!
*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.

===Requirements===
This mod requires the following Fallout 4 DLC:
*Automatron (DLCRobot)
*Far Harbor (DLCCoast)
*Nuka World (DLCNukaWorld)
*Contraptions Workshop (DLCworkshop02)
*Vault-Tec Workshop (DLCworkshop03)

There will not be a non-DLC version, so please don’t ask.  This mod is PC only and WILL NOT be ported to consoles, so please don’t ask.

===Getting Inside===
Gaining entry to the Safehouse requires you have the Subway Safehouse Key Card in you inventory. The key card will open two doors that grant you access to the lower levels. Once you enter the interior cell, read the “Note from Roadrunner” on the counter near the load door for information on where to go to get the key card. Watch the promo video (above the Requirements section) if you need a complete walkthough on where to find the key card. 

Once you have access to the lower levels, the main lights must be turned on by activating the Circuit Breaker near the Sorting Container (in the small hallway between stairwell from the Workbay and the main platform area).

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. Questions regarding items clearly spelled out the in the READ ME or mod description will likely not be responded to. 

OPTIONAL HOUSE UPGRADES – Activate from Terminal: If you have the required components in your inventory, there are a number of Upgrade Items you can activate from any Terminal. These items are located under the House Upgrades Menu. 

Upon activating your upgrade, you will see a notification message telling you it has been activated. When activated, each upgrade will replace the default item that is active the first time you enter the cell.  

All upgrade add-ons are functional and custom designed.

IMPORTANT: Once you activate an upgrade, you CAN NOT deactivate it, so make sure you really want it!
*Bobblehead Display Case requires: 2-Adhesive; 1-Glass; 2-Plastic; 3-Steel
*Robot Model Kit Shelf requires: 2-Adhesive; 3-Screws; 2-Steel; 2-Plastic
*Magazine Racks (80 Magazine Capacity) requires: 2-Adhesive; 4-Aluminum; 3-Steel
*Nuka Cola Display Shelf requires: 2-Adhesive; 3-Screws; 3-Steel
*Nuka World Recipe Book Display requires: 2-Adhesive; 3-Steel; 2-Wood

The Wonder Meat Maker: An import from the Capital Wasteland...now in Boston!
With this nifty little device (and the proper ingredients) you will be able to make the Capital Wasteland delicacy known as: Mole Rat Wonder Meat!

The Wonder Meat Maker is located in the Kitchen Car, next to the Water Purifier.

Mole Rat Wonder Meat is a unique blend of Mole Rat Meat and adhesive. It gives 4x the HP regen of normal Mole Rat Meat with slightly less rads, similar to the Wonder Meat in Fallout 3.

Each piece of Mole Rat Wonder Meat made with the Wonder Meat Maker requires:
*Mole Rat Meat – 1
*Adhesive – 2

So when you need food, go for Wonder Meat; a meal that will really stick to your ribs...literally!

NOTE - If you are using my Listening Post Zulu mod: the Wonder Meat made with that mod will have a different FormID than the Wonder Meat from this mod, so there will be two Wonder Meat entries in your inventory if you make meat with both mods.

A VERY IMPORTANT NOTE ON THE ARMOR DISPLAY MANNEQUINS: ALWAYS remove ALL items from the mannequin before changing the gender. If you do not, you will PERMANENTLY loose those items! This is a vanilla issue with the mannequins and is the same issue they exhibit when storing them to the workbench in workshop mode. You have been warned!

The Contraptions DLC Armor Displays have a reputation of randomly not spawning the first time a player enters the cell they are in. This is a vanilla issue potentially found in any mod that uses these items and is not exclusive to this one. I personally have never had this happen, but know of other mods and users that have experienced it. If you encounter this issue (in any mod, not just this one) save your game, quit to the desktop, relaunch the game and reload your save. That will fix it. Alternately, quit to the desktop, relaunch the game and reload a save prior to entering the cell and try again. 

===Known/Potential issues===
A detailed explanation of known or potential issues with this mod is outlined in the Read Me. Please go through the Read Me thoroughly before commenting or reporting a "problem!"

===Performance and Optimization===
This is a large, VRAM intensive player home mod. The interior cell has been optimized using precombined meshes and previs data generated in the Creation Kit. Draw calls have never exceeded 5500 in my testing. Regardless, users with lower spec systems are very likely to experience performance issues. 

The mod also uses multiple shadowed light sources. Be advised that some players WILL likely have FPS issues if your machine can’t handle numerous shadowed light sources.

I have done thorough testing using three machines with a variety of hardware configs. My “low end” machine is a 4700-series i7 with a 2GB GTX860M and 16GM RAM. I am able to maintain a solid 45-60 FPS in the entire home on medium and high graphics settings with no ENB. 

Comments complaining of FPS issues or asking for a “fix” WILL NOT be responded to, or may just get a copy/paste of this statement as a response! If your computer isn’t up to snuff to use this mod, sorry but that’s on you. 

If you do have FPS issues when entering the cell, save your game, quit to the desktop then reload your save. That is the only advice I can offer.

Exterior cell edits were kept to an absolute minimum. No precombined meshes were touched nor disabled. If you suffer performance issues in the area of Slim’s Courtyard, it is not the fault of this mod. 

===Installation===
Use the mod manager of your choice,

Or to install manually:
*Extract the archive. It contains three files:
*RRTV_SubwaySafehouse.esp
*RRTV_SubwaySafehouse – Main.BA2
*RRTV_SubwaySafehouse – Textures.BA2
*Place all three files into your Data folder. Manually activate the mod in your plugins.txt file. 

For xEdit aficionados
*The mod has been cleaned and checked for errors in FO4Edit. If you still feel the need to do so, have at it, Hoss.
