Fallout 4

this game has taken my life..... lol

 

Not for Sturgis or Preston. Only thing I can do with Sturgis is talk or barter. Nothing pops up for him even when I'm in the workshop. The only thing that I can think may be the issue is I'm always wearing power armor. But that seems like a dumb reason for me to not be able to command them in workshop mode.
Or it could just be another one of those glitches that Bethesda is so well known for.

 

Cleaned out Fort Hagen tonight again...since I have to at some point to continue the main quest far enough to get to the Institute.

Got a couple interesting melee drops off of Legendaries:

 

The struggle is real.

 

So I checked tonight , for me on PS4 , in workshop mode at Sanctuary , the Move option comes up for Sturges and for Preston

 

Also noticed something weird

My 3900 wood at Spectacle Island doesn't show up in any of my linked workshops . I thought the total of all of one type of junk in all linked workshops was viewable in any of the linked workshops , maybe thats not the case

 

I checked online last night for common glitches in fallout 4 and no one else seems to be having this issue but me. Fml haha

 

I wonder if it has anything to do with charisma points or perks

 

Huh , interesting

I never actually tried to move Sturges or Preston just highlighted them to see if " MOVE " appeared , maybe the option comes up but won't allow them to be moved afterall

" One thing to note is that named settlers, like Mama Murphy and the rest of the people from Concord, can not be moved to other settlements "

They won't move if all your other settlements are at max population or overpopulated.

Jon, are you in the middle of an unfinished quest? Maybe that has something to do with it?

I have noticed something similar but seems to be random. I send all companions to their own exclusive chateau at Red Rocket and each has their little residential hut. However, once they are there, sometimes I cannot assign them to a particular bed. It happens most often with Cait (she just wants this D and won't rest till she gets the D of a killa). In workshop mode, no options will appear when she's highlighted.

 

Preston WILL move if instructed. Forgot about the rest of the Concord settlers not being able to be resettled somewhere else. Good catch OZ; I don't care what they say about you, you're all right in my book. Lol

 

Ok so according to that article you shouldn't be able to move Sturgis (implicit)
So those who said they did move Sturgis to Castle must be playing on PC with mods is my guess.
I still think it's weird I can assign all the other concord people except Sturgis (Mama Murphy OD'ed)

 

I have tons of quests that I haven't finished haha. Particularly the Minutemen settlement quests. I don't need more settlements, I already have too many as it is

 

I think I have 18 settlements with populations right now

 

Ya of nothing else, Preston can be temporarily made a companion and immediately dismissed to a different settlement

 

Any companion can be moved when they are your current companion

 

Right

 

Maybe it is a glitch on my end that I was able to move him.

 

Pretty sure that's because he's a companion, and if he wasn't they'd still intend you to be able to switch him from sanctuary to the castle.

 

Generally no unless it's to defend a settlement or I'm transporting loot back and forth. Otherwise I'm humping it across the Commonwealth.

It's interesting: I won't think twice about wasting someone for the hell of it, but I refuse to drink booze or take chems (or give them to someone else).

It does get old after awhile; after building elaborate cities I opted for small & quick settlement construction at some of the more remote settlement locations. Bare essentials + overwhelming defense = peace and quiet.

Oh. I commented earlier about the lack of attacks on my settlements. I don't know what changed but last night the whole damn Commonwealth decided to raid my settlements. Even Sanctuary was attacked. Maybe the unwashed masses are getting tired of being slaughtered. Peasant Lives Matter.
