I can't progress past New plots on the block. Jake won't talk.

I'm in the middle of "New Plots on the Block" I've reached the "Meet Jake at." in my case Starlight Drive in. Jake is stood next to the workbench but if I interact with him it opens the trade items window. I have the minimum amount of mods needed to run ss2. I'd rather not return to an earlier save as I went off and did a load of stuff with other settlements for quite a while.
 
Version 9? You mean 1.00i? There has been like six more updates since then.

You should get a mod manager like Vortex and download the newer versions.

I initially installed ss2 through vortex and played until Hub of the Problem while rebuilding my settlement. Had to use the console to get Jake into the building. Got the lift key, now Jake won't move the mats. Downloaded the latest ss2 and disabled the previous version. I'm still stuck at the mats. Maybe console into the sub basement?

I was forgetting the upstairs terminal. I'll update when I get to New Plots on the Block/Meet Jake. Thanks for your help.
You can skip having Jake visit your settlement for a demonstration. I highly advise to do it if you know how the four plots work because it avoids any script lag visiting your settlement.
 
Update:
Managed to skip the tricky part of New plots on the Block by choosing the Jake dialogue option to skip the demonstration. The rest of the quests went smoothly. Looking forward to the next instalment. Thanks again.
 
Hmm... hadn't read this before requesting the demonstration portion of the quest, Jake's in Sanctuary but will only trade, do I need to reload back to before I requested the demonstration, or will his scripts eventually catch up to the right point?
 
This happened to me. I would just kind of wait it out. Also make sure you are out of build mode. I noticed the scripts wouldn't run while I was in building mode. He would follow me around but wouldn't respond or do anything. He will build the constructs so just build the plot type then back out of the build mode. you don't need to find anyone to build it.
