Ha the item after him

SPOILERS













There's an unbroken egg beside one of the ripped apart soldiers and another hologram... That's why it followed them inside the house

It lets you decide whether or not to crush it... I returned it to the nest and that was even scarier than the other part of the mission

There's a big arse alpha that gets in your face and basically eyes you the frick down while you place it and walk away

Can you expand the green zone that a workshop lets you build and scrap in?

Yeah youre pretty much stuck in there... You can really build some cool shite though since your walls are actual buildings

Had a suicide Super Mutant come at my front gate and my turret shot the bomb... I was off planting mutfruit and heard... pop pop pop BOOM... super mutant parts errwhere

That sounds ideal, but I want to say the transferred items still show up in the workshop inventory, which leads me to believe you still have to do the extra step to get the materials.

---

right. if you don't do the extra step to break down the materials, you lose the other materials when you use an item for just one of its materials.

this was posted a few pages back in a quote from reddit on how to breakdown items

If you really wanted to scrap the phones one at a time (for whatever reason) you would have to drop in from your inventory while in a settlement, switch to workshop view, then point at it on the ground and scrap will be an option.

this is what you have to do if you don't want to waste materials

o you have to manually scrap each item of junk for its individual resources

so if you have a gold watch and you use the spring from it for something without scrapping it first, you lose the gold portion of the materials.

Screw that. What you're saying totally makes sense, but there is no way in hell I'm taking the time to scrap everything individually. Most of the time I feel like it's just 1-2 components I'm always low on (adhesive and copper), so as long as I'm utilizing that part of the junk I'm good.

ETA: Can you scrap from the transfer screen in the main workshop toolchest?

All you have to do is press square.

That was me edited question. If you can scrap from the transfer screen with square, then just pressing it 1000 times in the junk column should be pretty easy.

But to drop all of it from your inventory individually to scrap it on the ground? No thanks.

did not know this if it's true

If you use an item with multiple components to craft something else, it will destroy the other components not used in the process.
For example if you were to use a gold watch as a gears component, it will destroy the gold. However, if you break the watch down beforehand, you get all the raw materials.
To scrap junk, you can drop it on the ground in a settlement and just use the scrap function in builder mode.

I'm confused. Last night, I went to the work bench and pressed one button and it scrapped all of my junk and stored it.

ETA: I think I pressed square when facing the work bench to "transfer".
