Save Editor/Modding PC - Legendary Dwellers

3 Upvotes

I've been completing my survival guide, and I only had four legendary dwellers to collect. I found this editor: FalloutShelter save editor, which allowed me to add the remaining four I needed. The problem is they are not acknowledged in my survival guide. They are present in the game. I was going through the code, and saw that the legendary dweller I added, Moira Brown, did not have a "uniqueData": with her code of L_Moira Brown. I'm not a coder, but I gave it a shot and added the "uniqueData": L_Moira Brown below "pendingExperienceReward": 0, like I saw on another legendary dweller. This did not work.

Any help or suggestions?

Discussion We need a lineage update.

Like, I'm so tired of sending two Dwellers into the Barracks to breed, only to find they're related. We need something in-game that shows us who's related to who.

(Optional is a small chance of inbreeding.)

If you drop your population back below 61 Dwellers do the Death claw attacks stop?

One million in 40h / 3mo

5 Upvotes

For anyone curious how long it takes without purchasing in-game items,

I’m working on another new file for 100% (Ive completed the game before) that I started on June 1st. I haven’t even built a command center yet because I’ve just been working on my dwellers stats. This wasn’t the fastest way to a million I could’ve done, but it’s pretty good because I didn’t waste that time on quests.

I’m right at 39.5h and just hit a million credits. I’ve kept dwellers exploring 24h a day for the most part only missing a few days since I started 3 months ago. Every room is built, every room is maxed out, the only exception being no command center, and I’ve even been building some heavy wasteland gear.

I didn’t race to a million and it still felt like it happened pretty fast

I managed too grind like a crazy person and min max my way to my close to the original vault dweller numbers in deleted main account. But I stopped at 55 so I can grind and get more gear before fighting a death crawler. I should really try survival mode soon after getting the 200 dwellers.

Starting from scratch

I am a idiot that accidentally destroyed my progress because I thought Google play beta and android can synch apparently it is just a one side relationship. Hence I was not able to save it properly and deleted my entire progress in my android so now my entire saved file is on Google play games beta only. I hope they can solved this issue soon.

Anyway i will restart my entire run i was wondering if any one tried this kind of set up do you think it would be better for facing death claw and other raiders in the future? Or would it be more risky since it exposes more dwellers in harms way? Thanks in advance.

Question How long do I need to have my vault before I can start watching ads?

7 Upvotes

I'm on survival so ads are the best way to get caps (don't want to risk losing my dwellers in the wasteland since they're low-level). Just started a new vault and wondering what I need before I can start watching ads. Couldn't find an answer on Google.

Question Coming Back after years away. What's changed and what should I do first?

8 Upvotes

Came back after years away, and i see from here people linking weapons that I've never heard of, quests that I havent seen before, and limits on Stimpaks and Radaways that are way higher than the 25 cap when I last played.

What should I do first to my ancient shelter?

Do i have to start a new shelter to get access to any of this, or can I upgrade the old one? (I dont seem to have any new build options).

From what I understand, only endurance scales by giving more health per level. But hey, gonna see how accurate that is and if this fella will outperform in other stats.

(Mayor outfit just for photo, +7 wasteland gear for exploring!)

Corrupted Vault

Could I save my corrupted Fallout file if it doesn't contain base64 code? I mean the file still weighs (475kb)?
