I'm not reading any of that stuff... LALALALALALA... I cant hear you.
 
On another note, figured out a way to make nice and neat power lines in my settlements without resorting to super cheat methods.  First, I have a mod that allows me to make my power lines 3x longer than vanilla.  Then I take a power/telephone pole and stick power conduit on that.  No more drooping powerlines attached to numerous short and ugly metal power poles.




 
 
There's nothing bad there Ducky. LOLOLOL
 
You may want to check out the newest beta update as there is something in there regarding mods and achievements. I just glanced at it so I can't say more than that.

I think it was Dima's Stash on the western side that had all of the raw materials for building. I don't have any quests right now so I'm just travelling around fixing my settlements. One thing I did learn was that my Explosive Combat Shotgun is a lot of fun against Ghouls but not ideal for use in close quarters like Hangman's Alley. I got a call for help and forgot to change weapons. I noticed that for every Super Mutant I wasted I also took out two of my settlers. Bummer! I repaired all of the damage done by the Super Mutants before I arrived but the Happiness was on the decline along with the population. LOL  Stuff happens. Shawn made me a Wazer Wifle with all of the junk parts he was asking me to get for him. Really not a bad weapon although I have better. I made it 'full auto' just because but it can't compare to my 'Overcharged Plasma Sniper Rifle'.




I like that. Building is fun. Never get enough material.
 
The Assassins shotgun is my primary close and personal choice against the ghouls. It literally sends them flying. Those big, bloated ghouls are a little bit harder to deal with but a couple extra rounds does the trick. LOL

I found an explosive mini gun and even without any upgrades, that thing makes the game almost too easy. Aside from chewing up ammo, it is awesome. I can air juggle enemies 100 feet in the air until they are just chunks. LOL. Just found the map for that treasure hunt and 2 journal entries. I fixed the pump thing at one of the stations and found a locked door at number 2. I applaud the effort they put in to Far Harbor, I have gotten quite a few hours out of it so far.




Slice and dice 100 feet in the air? Isn't that a bit on the over kill side of things?  LOL

IDK, I just killed everyone in Covenant and then went into the tunnels and killed all of the Covenant Security Guards along with the doctors in there. I only left that one girl alive that keeps yelling, "I'm not a Synth". IDK what else to do with her. She won't talk to me and won't leave. I hope I don't need any of them people later in the game. Oops, oh well.




 
You'll be alright. I left the doctor alive. She's got her nose in the clouds. She's high maintenance this one. LOL
 
You'll have to get rid of the current gun turrets though if you haven't done so.

The best way to deal with the big bloated charcoal ghouls is to blow their legs off. Then they can't reach you. It'll still take a lot of ammo to kill them but they just lay there on the ground squirming like a worm. The Doctor showed up as 'green' in VATS but I killed her anyway. I just picked up a magazine somewhere that gave me a 'Turrect Hack Perk' but I couldn't hack those turrets in Covenant. I couldn't repair the old turrets or knock them off of their pedestal either. I was outside planting new turrets and I heard Cait shooting it out with someone so I went inside and killed the only person I saw. When I looted him it said "Settler". Oops, I think I killed my first Settler to Covenant.

Been down that road with those ghouls many a time like that. And that "I dare you" look that they give you after both legs are gone. I just smile and blast away. LOL
 
The old turrets were and are a pain because you can't do anything with the remains except watch them smoke.
 
Remove the bodies from inside Covenant and drag them down to the river and leave them there. After a period of time you can loot them again. Just allow a little time to pass before doing so again.

Just hold 'E' to pick them up? I always have problems with that so I just leave them there. I think corpses give a place character and serve as a warning to others if they don't feel like working. Why can't the settlers move them? Maybe they're eating them and they don't want them moved. Did you ever think of that?

I found a whole parking lot full of cars. I just can't help myself. LOL

Cursor on the item, press and hold the E button. Attempt to move them while still holding the E button. When item (body) starts moving then release the E button and move to where you want to go. Move item (body) slow or you will lose it and have to repeat it. To drop item (body) press and release the E button. Tip: Raise item (body) high in the air and move to your destination. This allows you to avoid many items located on the ground and reduces the contact which can make contact and cause you to lose item.

I do that when there are a lot of enemy to get rid of. LOL
 
Walking in the tunnels and other areas of some buildings there will be a vapor that is seen. Don't stand in there and shoot as this will set that vapor off and explode. It's fun when against Ghouls as it will kill them or damage them severely. LOL
