Effects of player actions[]
- Deputy Steel will replace Deputy Weld if it is destroyed (unless Broken Steel is installed).
- If the Lone Wanderer decides to destroy Megaton, Deputy Weld's faceplate will survive the atomic explosion and continue to welcome people to Megaton, albeit in a garbled manner, and state that the bomb is safe. The faceplate can be dragged around.
- Deputy Weld can be deactivated by hacking a computer terminal in in the Megaton armory. A skill of 75 is required to hack it, and the Lone Wanderer can also deactivate Deputy Steel. If the Lone Wanderer uses the Robotics Expert perk to sneak-deactivate him, he still says his phrases and later on in the game will return to normal.
- Deputy Weld will respawn after a while if he is killed.
