Bugs
Players who want to max out all skills should keep this bug in mind when collecting skill books.
 * The Vault 108 location of Tumblers Today is bugged. The best way to get this book is to place a lot of frag mines (usually 15) on the closest corner of the previous room. With a frag grenade as trigger, the book should be blown to an accessible position (see ). Another way to access this book is by wedging an explosive under the stepladder to move it. This last method is an extremely trial-and-error prone process, as the collision box for the stepladder will prevent you from interacting with it in any way, including the 'grab' button, despite being clearly visible and close enough for taking. On the PC version, it is straightforward to gain access to this book by simply deleting the stepladder. The console commands below will allow the player to get down behind the boxes and retrieve the book. If the player has not collected the Nuka-Cola Quantum on the stepladder, it will remain floating in the air after the ladder has been deleted. It is also possible to disable clipping in order to gain access to the book.
 * - target the stepladder
 * - delete the stepladder
 * or
 * - toggle clipping
