I'm a couple of hours in, just got that group of people back to Sanctuary and built some beds. To be honest, not really feeling it yet. Probably just need to give it more time.

Wait till you spend 2 hours organising your settlement and realise Fallout is now a Post-Apocalyptic Civic Simulator, where you are the mayor, lead architect and manual labourer. All the other people are there to serve you by producing food, water and sleep next to dead bodies of Feral Ghouls.

Is anyone else constantly short of screws to build things? Where do you get those from?
Caporegime
If you go into the my junk section of your inventory and click either RB or LB and hover over screws you can see what items you can get them from, it also lets you tag that material so items that have screws in the world will have a little icon next to them. Also there is a perk that lets you get screws from scrapping guns.
Soldato
In the building menu mark any missing items you need (Xbox i think it's RB) and it'll put a magnifying glass icon next to any junk/loot bits you come across, telling you it's something you need.

Is there a reliable time played clock in the game? My save has a 16 hour time stamp on it, but as I only installed it yesterday and am only around 3 hours in I'm assuming that's in game time maybe?
There is??
Where?
I too keep running out of screws as I mod guns and sell. Had to buy from Trashcan Carla, who seem to permanently visit my place at night (ha!), at around 700 caps, I tend to trade ammo for screws.

Do you use instant on mode (assuming you're on Xbox One)? Perhaps you're not fully quitting the game and it's counting the time played while the console is in standby.
Caporegime
Scrapper, under the Int column if I remember correctly.

Im on PS4. I do generally use suspend, but surely thats not counted as game time? The Witcher suffered from that months ago and with the long load times I guess most people will use the feature.

Really enjoying this game! About 30 or so hours into it now. Partly considering starting again to rectify any mistakes I've made. At the same time I don't think I'm doing to bad at all.

You can craft your own adhesive, not too hard once you have the items needed in place.
Going to do it myself soon.

Desk fans or I find type writers good for (3)screws.
I'm finding adhesive hard to find I think you get it from duct tape though so I'll have to hunt for that later.
Also crystal is rather hard to come across too for laser weapon mods
Crystals are all over the place.
In all of these items
Cameras / laster traps / microscopes and merchants tend to carry them

Duct Tape and Wonderglue gives adhesive.
If you cook vegetable starch you can scrap that for adhesive also!
It is the most annoying mat for me at the moment as everything uses lots of it but it's not exactly in massive abundance.

I've just thought of another question, sorry :embarrassed:
Each time I level up I get to put one point in to a SPECIAL stat. I'm only level 8, but I still haven't see how those stats translate to Perks??
I have 8 points in STR as my highest stat so far.

If you level up your SPECIAL, it opens up perks so for instance you have 8 points in strength, go into the level up screen and look at all the perks you now have available under strength, you still need to level up/open each perk as well.
Is that what you mean?
