PLEASE READ!
THIS MOD WORKS! As with my other mod, More dwellers, this mod is basically the same except that you can have eight dwellers. These are the days that dwellers tend to show up (tested with four people in shelter at start)
Dweller five: Day 10, 11 or 12
Dweller six: Day 21, 22 or 23
Dweller seven: Day 33, 34 or 35
Dweller eight: Day 45, 46 or 47
(if you have three dwellers at start) Dweller four: Day 8 NOTE on this scenario, dwellers five to eight will NOT show up on the days mentioned above. Dweller five will simply show up ten to twelve days AFTER dweller four comes, so you will have much, much longer to wait.

The main reason new dwellers take so long to show up is simply for balance. You don't want to have a new person show up on day 2, 3, 4 and 5. You wouldn't have enough food or supplies. Speaking of, this mod adds in a much bigger challenge, but can also make the game easier. Naturally, having more people means more mouths to feed, people can get sick more often (this requires more testing to confirm), and conditions are more crowded. But this also gives you some nice boosts; You have more people to guard, making it much harder for you to get robbed. Then there's also the fact that more people means you can get more done. If for example someone is sick, you can continue with the daily chores as if nothing is wrong. Also you can have three people guard, one scavenge, four sleep, and then the next day the four that stayed up can rest while the four who slept can continue on with their lives. It's up to you.

As far as I know you will still only get one child (weather they show up at your shelter or you start with them is a whole other story) unless there's a glitch or you have a mod for that. I might work on a mod that allows you to have more children if I can figure it out. Download and have fun!

(I do not have pictures because I was testing this on a custom story using custom characters that share some of my friends faces. Out of respect for them, they have asked not be on steam workshop, so once I am done with my current game I will update and add pictures.)

NOTE: THIS MOD WILL NOT WORK IF YOU ARE USING MY OTHER MOD, More dwellers, AND VICE VERSA. YOU CAN HAVE BOTH DOWNLOADED, BUT YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE ENABLED.

Okay, I am now playing the scenario with Arica, Marin and Kaita. After maybe 10 days a 4th survivor came in and now at day 20 I finally have a 5th survivor, proving this mod DOES work after all. No idea why it didn't for me when I first tried it. Anyway, thank you for making it!

Little update: I am playing the scenario with Bruno, Arica and Roman with this mod installed. It took until DAY 30 to finally have a 4th survivor join the group. Either this mod is broken for me or something else doesn't work. I installed before starting the new scenario, don't have your other mod installed at the same time, and your mod is at the top of my load order.

The other mods I use are: "Crafting Overhaul Extended with more homemade supplies" and "Time Extender".

Hmm, I don't know honestly. I don't even know if I have the code for it anymore either, so I don't know if I can check it. I don't think it works with children, I think it only searches for adult survivors to add.

The variations I saw were the Tobacco grandfather/son pair, a dude trying to give me Misha, and Irina/Lydia. Misha's temp. guardian generally overlapped w/the other person while I tried to reload the day to fix it.

No. I had a custom setup of Bruno/Marin/Roman/Photographer.

Huh, interesting. I haven't played in a while but I'm guessing this is just a glitch of an extra survivor coming along with other people coming. That said though I'm not sure about the child not coming with him. Do you have a child already?

When the fifth person is set to arrive, I get 1-3 people coming to my door, always including a child who acts like I said no and leaves; I somehow got the Tobacco grandfather without his grandson.

OH Ok, that makes sense.

It works fine on its own, but when combine with other mods it conflicts with almost most of them in my mod list. Specifically mods that make visiter arrive at your shelter at certain times of day like having traders arrive at 6 am instead of midday. Or mods that slowdown in the game play time so you have more time to gather resources at night. I believe it conflicts with time relate events in the game if other mod tamper with it. So, instead of having a new dweller approaching your base at like 6am-8am in the morning, it resorts to the default of mid day or it doesn't work at all.

So I haven’t played in a bit, does the mod no longer work or is it just causing time issues?
