Question about contributing tips

I've recently got into modding Fallout 4 and would like to contribute tips and tricks articles as I learn. Where is the best place/format to post this?

For example: I just figured out a way to avoid finalizing or editing vanilla external navmeshes while still allowing companions to follow the player out of custom interior cells. It took a few days to figure out and I'd like to share the information I learned so that the next person who wants this solution can find it.

Thanks in advance.

Finalizing Navmeshes in Fallout 4 seems to be safe, but as you're new to modding it appears, you can take the Skyrim-safe route and only finalize when you need to connect a triangle to a load door in the exterior cell. In Skyrim it is safe to move vanilla triangles, but not safe to delete any of them.--Twilight Sky (talk) 2016-09-15T11:40:48 (EDT)
