Why are no new dwellers coming?
New dwellers are not coming to your vault because the probability of a dweller showing up is inversely proportional to your population, meaning that if you have a high number of dwellers, the odds of a new one wandering in are lower. To increase the chances of getting new dwellers, you can try breeding them by placing a male and female dweller in the Living Quarters room, or build a radio station and set the broadcast to wasteland to attract new dwellers.
Understanding Dweller Arrival Mechanics
To better understand why new dwellers are not coming, it’s essential to grasp the mechanics of dweller arrival. New dwellers only wander to your vault when the overall population is low (below about 16 dwellers). This means that if you have a large number of dwellers, you are less likely to get new ones.
