I'm going to start moving my companions to The Castle so I can blow up the BOS airship. That should put a smile on my face anyway.

I set up a lot of those sensors for Tinker Tom. Those quests suddenly just stopped but he has more of them in his inventory. He must be giving me some time off for R&R.

sensors?  

Yeah, they're named MILA and used to monitor changes to the environment. Tinker Tom is convinced that The Institute is manipulating the environment and atmospheric conditions for some reason. MILA units need to be placed on top of a building or other high areas.

I tried using the laser sensors to open a door, and to set the timing by 3 seconds so the door would close without closing right after I hit the sensor. The problem though is the sensor does not reset itself. How do I do that to make it so it resets?

Is this something in the new workshop? I haven't seen or tried it yet.

go to your power items, under switches, you will see the laser switch towards the end of the selections. There are 2 of them available, 1 shorter sensor, and then a longer one, which covers any door way. They will have 2 endings, and then will show an orange/pink laser going to both ends. Those are the sensors.
 
if you're able to figure out how to make the sensor reset once you pass through it to open the door, please let me know.

I would run it through an on/off switch between the sensor and the generator. Cycling the power off and then back on should reset it. I'll give it a try later today. I didn't know anything about it until you mentioned it here.

I took the on/off switch as a way to make a device to sporadically turn on & off. So, that's why I didn't try it. description obviously was very confusing.

I'm more interested in killing things so I haven't tried it yet. Building things is so blah for me. I want to see body parts flying around. LOL  Some weird things happening to me. Been traveling with MacReady for a while and finished killing some of his old Raider pals for him. He still gripes about 'how come he never he gets to go looking for stuff' and 'you're not going to make me ME carry that, are you?'. I was alarmed at getting the 'flirt' option with him. AGH! I think both him and Preston have the 'hots' for me and it scares me. Danse is finally talking to me again instead of ignoring me and that bully Rhys apologized to me. After that he walked around the corner and grumbled about how it should have been the BOS that took down The Institute. That's the Rhys we all know and love. LOL

I'm a turret building machine but I haven't tried Shotgun or Missile turrets yet. I got Machine gun turrets all over my settlements for the increased range.

I have some Laser turrets but I don't like needing a generator for them. It's too easy for the Raiders to shoot up the generator and leave the turrets useless. Most of my settlements have a Defense rating of over 100.

I started a new character, and this one is set on Survival. I have to say, it's pretty hard with the fact that fast travel has been completely illuminated. Water dehydration is real, and so is hunger. It looks like I will have to set up multiple water stations at each settlement.

I started a new character. I made the ugliest woman possible and she is all strength and endurance, dumb as a rock on "very hard" and I am intent on being rude to everyone but so far, even when I steal and I am crappy, the convo always ends up going forward. It seems that your actions affected more of the story in FO:NV and FO3. It's too bad I couldn't go up real nice to a raider and join their gang just because.  Oh well, I am going to find someone friendly to punch.

Well, you could be a jerk on FO4, and just shoot the innocent ones, and start a scene. Who knows what will happen if you just go to diamond city, and just shoot on sight.
 
Secondly, why only very hard? I know you beat this game. Be a man... start the Survival challenge.

My first time around, I went to diamond city and I did a save and then scanned around and the mayor was way up high in his office I guess. I sniped him and he ended up getting up again. No one batted an eye. He must be a real jerk. 

Has anyone purchased the living space that is available at Diamond City?

I like seeing body parts flying too, just as long as they are not mine. LOL
 
Cait says the same thing regarding the carrying of "junk" also. I have what is commonly known as "Selective Hearing" and I do practice it with her. LOL

Try it, you'll love it. Awesome fire power. You can always place a wall around the generator and you can also erect a tower and place it there. I do believe that there is a limit to the ammo that the gun turrets contain.
