Capital Wasteland Hideouts

!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Updating from previous version (v1.1): See the “Updating from previous version” section later in the READ ME file included with the download!

Capital Wasteland Hideouts are small way station player homes (10 locations in total) that offer places to safely store your stuff until you can get to your main base (or until you can acquire one). They are great places to sleep, rest up and catch your breath and do some crafting. The mod is in some ways of a Fallout 3/TTW version of my Commonwealth Express Courier Stations for Fallout 4, which itself was inspired by Mojave Express Courier Stations for FNV.

Each Hideout has its own design and style in new interior cells, with two existing in vanilla cells (Reilly's Rangers Compound and GNR Studios). Many custom assets are used through the locations.

Amenities offered is each Hideout is different with varying levels of comfort. Those with the most basic amenities are the easier to gain access to, while those with higher comfort levels and features require a bit more effort.

All Hideouts feature a Shared Storage container which links each location to a central storage hub. This means items added to the Shared Storage container in one location are accessible in all of the other nine Hideouts.

All containers are flagged to not respawn. Player home cells added by the mod are assigned to an Encounter Zone flagged to never reset. The two vanilla cells used have not had their vanilla Encounter Zone records changed (Reilly's Rangers compound was already assigned to a no-rest zone, DCSewardPark).

The Hideouts do not feature the scripted inventory sorting system of my other player home mods, but offer LOTS of named storage containers. If you want such a sorting system added to this mod, I suggest looking at using Stash Organizer.
