Jake Not Spawning.

I’m building the recruitment radio beacon, powering it up and Jake just won’t spawn.
I’ve made 4 separate saves trying this in different areas but he won’t spawn in either save game.
Anyone able to help?

Jake likes to hide sometimes.
Build a City Managers Desk, (in build menu SS2 under furniture).
From the desk build a town meeting gavel.
Use the gavel to gather settlers.
This should bring Jake to you.

It hasn’t worked, it’s bought every settler to me but Jake isn’t anywhere, he just isn’t spawning.
It could just be a bug for console because it’s working for my brother who is on PC.

That could be, I thought I saw something in one of the update threads from Kinggath. I'll see if I can find it.

"I did find this post from @Synystyr1
Kinggath has started an XBox playthrough on his livestream on Wednesday evenings on Youtube & Twitch. Hopefully it will help him find and address any bugs particular to XBox.

He didn't run into the issue with the Stranger not showing up, but a few theories came up, including not giving the mod enough time to start, installing SS2 on an existing playthrough where you already have settlements (he can appear at any with an active recruitment beacon), or a possible conflict with UFO4P; this last one has hopefully been addressed in version 3.0.0n and going forward."

Might be worth checking out!

Here is what I saw from Kinggath:
"Someone confirmed on stream Wednesday that currently UFO4P on Xbox breaks Jake appearing. I reached out to their team, but they don't know what it is. The changes I made to the holotape tool were to try and address this."

Make sure you have the latest update.

I’ll try to report it.
Additionally for him not even spawning in new games, I decided to go into a far back existing save I had I’m level 11 while being 2 hours in, and the sim settlements 2 items in workshop mode don’t even exist.
