Sturges is a handyman from Quincy in Fallout 4. He is also a character in Fallout Shelter Online and Fallout: Wasteland Warfare.
Background[edit]
Sturges is a talented repairman, capable of fixing anything that passes through his hands. He was a long-time handyman in Quincy before the city fell to the Gunners, responsible for restoring power armor frames bought from the Atom Cats Garage to full functionality.[1] After the Minutemen's arrival and routing the initial Gunner attackers, he lamented that the one he had on hand couldn't be used to lift lumber to fortify the defenses across the city.[2]

Bugs[edit]
- Sturges, as well as other Sanctuary settlers, will sometimes teleport onto the roof of the house with the workbenches, and the only way to reach him is by making a staircase. The cause seems to be from the game spawning two characters in the same location (one will stand on the other's head) upon fast-traveling to Sanctuary, then one character trying to climb in place, which teleports one of them straight up and they land on the roof.
- Fast traveling can sometimes fix this issue.
- Leaving a stairway to the roof, then a 2nd 2-step stairs from the roof to eve will allow him and others that get teleported up there to climb down.
- Any character who gets stuck on a roof can be pushed down without being attacked by going into build mode, picking up a turret, and using it to push the character off the edge of the roof.
- After The Molecular Level is complete, Sturges will be non-assignable, and if the teleporter is built in another place, he will automatically teleport to Sanctuary Hills.
- This may be fixed on PC by opening the console and type in: prid 0001a4d8.moveto player while on the desired settlement, setpv bcommandable 1 and fast travel as far away as possible from the settlement and fast travel back to it.
- Sturges may relocate to the Castle after destroying the Institute with the help of the Minutemen and will stand in the courtyard near the radio tower. He will not move or sleep and cannot be assigned to any jobs, but will count as 1 settler in the player's population.
