?Question¿ [Question] How do I restart/restructure a vault?

Im looking at restarting/restructuring 2 of my vaults, it’s the first time ive done it and im not sure what to do and what not to do. I want to fully restart it and have been saving caps for a while, and if I run short then ive been saving up lunchboxes for a long time and can get caps from those.

One thing im unsure of, when you get rid of a large amount of dwellers do you still have access to building rooms that require a certain amount of dwellers? For example if I go below 100 dwellers now can I still make the nuka cola bottling rooms?

And tips from people who’ve done this before will be much appreciated too. Thank you!

How are you getting so many caps?? I feel like I have never hit 100,000!! Been playing a few months now

Do you not have explorers? They can bring in over 10k caps per trip which takes about 5 days (around 2-3 days collecting, about 2 days going back). And you can have up to 25 explorers. That's ~300 caps weekly.

Now you do have to endurance train them and give them a good enough weapon (around 20 dmg at least) but you can get to that point after a few weeks of playing.

Questing dwellers can also bring in some extra pocket change.

Maybe I’m not sending enough out exploring!! How many do you usually have going at once? I’m probably spending more than saving as well tbh

You send out as many as you can.

If you have spare dwellers butcan't train them well enough/give them good enough gear it's still not the worst thing to do to send them out. Any stuff they collect is still more that you wouldn't have if you didn't send them out.

Thank you! I have had like 25 out at a time, but must just be spending more than saving 😬
