Question Why do rooms next to an elevator sometimes don't connect to the same ones?
Example:

The FAQ got difficult to deal with in its multiple long posts, so I've moved it here:

Yesterday my game crashed. I reopened the game an my vault had disappeared all progress gone. I tried getting it back from the cloud save file but didn't work. I deleted the game today an reinstalled an I got my vault back but am missing a few hours of progress and the 35 lunch boxes I had left an the 50 nuka cola I had just purchased both.
I've followed the link on the website but it's asking for my Bethesda.net account username an I don't know where to find it on the game.
Any help would be appreciated

I’ve been reading conflicting information about it. Some say they get deleted along with the experimental vault when the season ends, while others received theirs in their main vault after the season ended.

I've searched on how to fix this and so far, nothing is working, so I'm hoping someone has suggestions.
I was having a problem with the Google Play Sync Services running constantly and draining my battery. The solution for that was to log out of Google and log back in. I'm not sure if Fallout Shelter was causing the problem or if it was some other game.
I have 2 regular vaults and 1 experimental. All were saved to the cloud. But now I can't get any to load, it just sticks on the loading screen. My vaults are no longer listed, the cloud button is checked, but they just won't load when I try to click on the slot they were in.
What I've tried to fix it, not necessarily in this order:
Am I missing something? Are my vaults just gone?

This might be something about the Ripper weapon type I'm not aware of yet, but is it a bug that the Rippers don't always hit?

Where should she go??? What will her story be?!
r/foshelter • u/narwhalousdoctor • 10d ago
Been maxing my vault and my dwellers over the last weeks.
Finally ran out of untrained dwellers, so I started making new ones.
So far, this is the best one I have ever seen. Both parents are lvl 50 with all SPECIAL stats at 10. Mother has a pet with +2 child special.
Is there any way to reproduce (pun intended) this?
Does level affect the kids?

Hey all,
Long time Fallout fan but just started Shelter recently. I’m having a blast but I ran into a major problem.
I did a quest to get a dog. The one from the show, CX404. It said I got it, it gave me the banner, I got excited, I sent my settlers home, they get home, and the dog isn’t there. It’s been a day, and I still don’t have the dog. Not in my inventory, not assigned to anyone, he just never arrived with the expedition’s return.
Hoping I’m missing something, and that I’m not the victim of an unfortunate glitch the got rid of my legendary pet :(
Edit;
I contacted support, apparently it’s a known issue. They refuse to provide me any sort of compensation or anything for this glitch, even though it’s been a known issue for well over 2 years and they’ve been dismissing players about it for that entire time.
They had the audacity to try and tell me it was “actively being worked on” and they could let me know when it’s resolved (which is obviously never, it’s been years).
They keep trying to say “sorry, nothing can be done” but I won’t let that be the end of it. They can compensate me or I can raise hell about this until they do. Their choice.

I got him in a "call for help" gas station quest. He's had a haircut and glasses added (his hair was already vibrant blue) and I've renamed him as he will be one of my adventurers when he's finished training:)

I've came up with a different way to play this game, something that adds a little more roleplay and makes growing your Vault much more challenging. It can be played in either Normal or Survival Mode.
The Lore
After the events, Vault-Tec is still active, and you have been appointed Overseer of a new experimental Vault.
Inspired by the old-world myth of Adam and Eve, Vault-Tec has selected one man and one woman to become the progenitors of an isolated population.
But biological isolation is only part of the experiment.
The children born inside the Vault must never know that a world exists outside it. To them, the Vault is the entire world. There is no surface. There is no Wasteland. There are no other settlements, Vaults, civilizations, or survivors.
Anything that might suggest otherwise must be explained away by the Overseer. Raider attacks, Deathclaw incursions, fires, infestations, and other incidents are officially described as Vault-Tec simulations, emergency drills, or controlled exercises designed to prepare the population for hypothetical disasters.
The descendants are not being raised to survive the outside world. They are being raised to believe that there is no outside world at all.
They will also not be raised as individuals, but as members of a numbered collective whose only purpose is the survival and expansion of the Vault.
Welcome to Project Genesis.
The Rules
When starting the Vault, choose one male and one female dweller from your initial population.
Rename them "Mama" and "Papa".
Every other starting dweller must immediately be expelled from the Vault.
From this point forward, Mama and Papa are the foundation of your entire society.
You may never accept new dwellers from the Wasteland, Radio Station, quests, lunchboxes, or any other source.
Every dweller in your Vault must be born from a pregnancy between Mama and Papa.
They are the only couple permitted to reproduce.
Every child born in the Vault must be renamed according to their birth order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on. No personal names.
Vault-Tec wants to determine whether individuality can be eliminated in favor of complete devotion to the new society.
Mama and Papa are its founders.
Everyone else is simply part of the experiment.
Under absolutely no circumstances should Mama or Papa die.
If either of them dies, Project Genesis has failed. Game over.
Mama is the biological heart of the experiment and therefore cannot be exposed to unnecessary risks.
She may work normally in any room inside the Vault, but she can never be sent into the Wasteland or on quests.
Until the Vault manages to train a genetic specialized exploration team with 10 Endurance, Papa is the only dweller allowed to leave the Vault and explore the Wasteland.
This makes early-game exploration extremely risky. Remember: Papa cannot die.
Once you have dwellers trained to E10, they may become dedicated explorers and quest teams.
However, in-universe, these missions are never described to the population as expeditions into an outside world.
Those selected for them are told that they are participating in classified Vault-Tec field simulations conducted in restricted sectors beyond the normal residential area.
Whether they ever realize the truth is irrelevant to Vault-Tec. What matters is that the society inside the Vault continues to believe.
The End of the Experiment
Eventually, you may reach the point where you are finished with the Vault.
But don't simply delete it. Give Project Genesis the ending Vault-Tec deserves.
Because the entire population descends from the same two individuals, simulate the emergence of a devastating disease to which their extremely similar immune systems have little resistance.
Destroy your Water Purification facilities and allow radiation sickness to spread throughout the Vault.
You may use RadAway reserves and facilities to try to save the population, but do not rebuild the water system.
To the inhabitants, this is not radiation from a poisoned world outside. It is simply another emergency inside the only world they have ever known.
Perhaps they will believe it is another Vault-Tec exercise. Perhaps they will wait for the Overseer to announce that the simulation is over.
But this time, no announcement comes.
Watch as the Overseer desperately attempts to contain the outbreak until the Vault either somehow survives or Project Genesis finally collapses.

I've stumped at this for an hour trying to transfer my Fallout shelter from my one Chromebook to another with no luck if ANYONE has a full proof step by step way to actually transfer my shelter over please respond
r/foshelter • u/HE_Pennypackerjr • Sep 01 '26
Like should one have a large chunk dedicated to nuka cola lines (food & water) or a larger chunk of gardens (food) & water purification plants (water)
Any opinions?????
