I want to first say that I am enjoying the Mod, day one I am walking to the trader and was murdered by a bandit. After that I decided to give myself a full set of armor and a few weapons to fight back. I ended up deleting that save and starting a new one since I added another Mod for my backpack, second time playing this has gone so much better and I am loving the challenge.
One question is, Can you recruit the survivors to go with you as I would like a partner during these battles since I am playing SP?
