Fallout 4 Settlements: 14 Crucial Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

11. Always Sleep Before Building Anything

In a reversal of how it'd go in the real world, you actually want to get your head down for a bit before delving into the construction menus. Why? Because it'll prompt the game to give you the 'well rested' notification at the top of the screen, which gives you a boost to any XP you acquire immediately after. Crafting and assembling structures will give you random XP the more you do it, so adding to this with the optional buff will only benefit you in the long run.
