6 - Watch the on-screen alert brackets
The brackets round on-screen alerts give vital information depending on how close they are to the word.
For example [ CAUTION ] is better than [CAUTION] and [ HIDDEN ] is better than [HIDDEN]
The further apart the brackets are the more hidden you are.
7 - Quicksave is your friend (most times)
Just two button presses will quicksave the game (and for once it is quick) do this often. You may clear a vault only to be killed and have to start again. But beware if you quicksave just as you're about to be killed you can get into a loop and have to restart from a previous save.

Try rotating and then strafe and you can now access passages that were previously inaccessible.
13 - Two Workshop areas
You have access to two different workshop areas, Sanctuary and Red Rocket gas station but junk doesn't transfer from one to the other without you physically moving them. So choose one of locations and plan on fast traveling back.
