Use caps to purchase weapon schematics from vendors like Moira in Megaton.
Invest in repairs
Spend caps on repairing high-tier weapons to keep them in top condition.
Don't overdo it
Add only what you need to avoid trivializing the game's economy.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Caps not appearing
Check that you typed the ID correctly (0000000F) and that the amount is a number without commas.
Inventory weight too high
Caps have negligible weight, but if you added millions, it may cause lag; use player.removeitem to reduce.
