How do I stop Brahmins from coming into my structures in Fallout 4?


Not too mention the up close animation for Brahmins is pretty shonky with lots of clipping which makes the whole experience worse. I haven't put hours into building my settlements to have noisy ugly two headed cows stomping around and blocking access to my bedroom/ storage/ workshop/ stairways. I've also seen Brahmins jammed in doorways/ entrance ways so I wasn't sure how effective a fence/ gate/ door would be if I could build one.Īs I said, it probably doesn't seem like a big deal but it's driving me nuts. I tried herding it by pushing/ hitting it (didn't work), I tried to build another fence - but space is very limited and I couldn't build a fence/ gate/ door system that'd allow me and the settlers access the structure while blocking the Brahmin. Which sort of solved the problem - I could now get to the stairs/ use the workbenches - apart from the aesthetic issue of having an immovable dead two headed cow in my bedroom.Īfter a couple of game days adventuring I returned to Hangman's Alley to find the dead Brahmin had disappeared and there was now a live Brahmin back in the ground floor - blocking everything off.

But that hasn't changed anything, the Brahmin hasn't gone anywhere near the trough and was still blocking access to everywhere I want to be. I then built a Brahmin drinking trough at the other end of the alley, and built a fence (with a gate) between the trough and the structure. I've built a multi-story structure that's partially open on the ground floor (as the existing environment means I can't wall it up).Įvery time I visit Hangman's Alley there is a Brahmin stomping around on the ground floor of my structure, blocking the stairwell, making it difficult to use the workbenches, standing on sleeping bags and generally getting in the way. A number of my settlements have Brahmins wandering around inside buildings, getting in the way and generally making a nuisance of themselves.Īn example is Hangman's Alley, which must be one of the smaller settlements but because of it's excellent position I've put a lot of effort into developing it. This might not sound like a big deal but it's driving me nuts.
