Primary Bug Report Picking Up the Pieces - Cannot place prototype locator beacon

[BrendanB00]

Hey all,

In the quest “picking up the pieces” you have to place or drop the beacon so MALA will come salvage the tech or whatever. But there is no option to do so below the marker? Am I missing something? There is a terminal and an intercom and a bunker hatch located near the electric shed. Is this caused by a conflict with whatever that stuff is from?

The only mods I have are SS2 and SS2 expanded (I’m on pc) and the unofficial fo4 patch. Also I have a LOT of creation club stuff that I’ve either gotten for free or at a heavy discount. Any suggestions or should I try one of the other locations?

thanks.

I should note this is at the Revere Satellite Array near finch farm.

I believe you have to enter your inventory, and drop the ASAM Sensor scanner first.

Drop the Asam Prototype sensor. It has another side effect which I won't mention, but it's really, really cool

 

[BrendanB00]

Thanks guys I'll try that now

I have trouble putting my scanner down They hover above the ground and turn obliquely

The system won't let me "equip" or drop a quest item, so there no way for me to go forward on this quest with no way to use the prototype locator beacon.

Since its impossible to drop a quest item like this, you guys need to program in an interaction event on the quest locations so that it can do the removal from inventory and placement on the ground.

Its the "ASAM Sensor Scanner" (or something like that) which you have to drop; has never shown that as counting as a Quest Item for me.
