Primary Bug Report If I Had a Hammer - Quest fails to update after completing quest objectives

[ACExtravaganza]

If I had a hammer has its first two component parts completed, but I didn't receive another stage and the quest didn't complete. There is a bug, but is it that the quest should have finished or is it that a new stage should have started?

...and why is there a tooltip for "power" in these single settler houses when highlighting the plot?

I'm having this issue with the martial, commercial & recreational plots. I think I messed up when I put down several plots in succession instead of waiting for Jake.

Loving the mod so far!
It seems that I have the “If I Had A Hammer” quest stuck. Every step is completed but nothing is happening. Is there a fix?

I had this issue yesterday. I reloaded from the build quests started, and when I got the ASAMs I didn't touch the holotape to set difficulty or anything. I also built all 3 plots next to each other. It seemed to work after doing those 2 things. I didn't start the holotape or build the desk till after the build quests were finished.

I believe that NPC's in Sanctuary need to start using those plots. After that happened, the quest advanced for me.

Same here, it looks I'm stuck on 7/8 on beds but it says completed. This is also with the Agricultural that is stuck on 5/8 as well.

I placed a few extra and it worked also two settlers could be sharing a plot which kinda breaks it I think if it doesn't work try loading a old save and redoing it without entering your pipboy

I have the same question about the icon. Is there a pdf or document for this mod? It is really in depth so Id assume there was.

 

[THANOS999]

theres an update in the fo4 mods section off game

 

[DrMathwin]

I'm on the stage of IIHAH that requires building 8 residential plots and 8 ag/ind plots. Thing is, I started all of this in Red Rocket, where the level 0 city plan seems to have only 7 residential plots. As a result, the quest seems to be stuck.

I updated to the most recent release version and it made no difference.

 

[Dyvrik]

I cleared my build bug by removing any mods that have scripting in them dealing with Sanctuary, or any mods that effect the layers in Sanctuary. Like Smooth and Clean Sanctuary.

 

[Wilzer09]

I will try that tomorrow see if that makes any difference, tried a few things today with no success

I am also stuck on the quest.

Hey kinggaths fix worked for me but the settlers still weren't building plots after that quest to fix that issue I went into mcm and in the setting I clicked unlocked all plots after that everything worked like normal. Heres his fix until a patch

1. 
   For those of you stuck on Plotting the Future, due to Stranger failing to finish his plot, I'm still researching why this happens for some folks - I have yet to repeat the issue myself. In the meantime, try this with 1.0.0a or greater:
   
   Stand next to the plot, click Stranger in console and run:
   
   moveto player
   
   Now look at Stranger's ID at the top of your console, you need those first 2 characters
   
   startscene XX045506 (replacing the XX with those 2 characters)
   
   This should start him doing the scene again, now run
   
   setstage ss2_sirick_mq02 35

When you removed the mod did the quest automatically finish?

 

[Dyvrik]

No script mods tend to make a hash out of things so I removed the mod and started a new game.

that sets the stage for being stuck at the agricultural plot. Im stuck at the industrial plot. I type all that in console and he just does the agricultural plot dialog and then still gets stuck at the industrial plot.
