Primary Bug Report Plotting the Future - Quest does not advance and Jake locks up after building Agricultural Plot

Just got back from concord, put the farming plot down and he just stands there and stares at it. I feel like it might be related to place anywhere or workshop+?
 
None of the solutions presented actually work. I'm getting really frustrated. I have the latest version now and he still won't progress.
make sure you are on SS2v1.0.0c
and
the video has my suggestions -

Rollback, place that plot somewhere else, and really plant yourself next to that ASAM.

I figured it out. It’s a mod conflict. Not sure which one though. I restarted at a saved game inside the initial vault with everything turned off but the Sim2 mod and it worked. I plan to turn them back on once I’m done with most of the quests.
 
The solution provided didn't work. What's really weird is that the agricultural plot was built in a different save with a different character. I also forgot to mention that the Stranger doesn't even build anything on the plot, he just says his dialogue. The farm is never actually 'built' in a way. In addition, in the save I want to play, the Stranger never actually does any animations, the structure just isn't built.

Sounds to me like you are trying to use a corrupt save file. I would start a new game if that old save file isn’t pristine, recent and never ever had a mod removed from it?
 
How and where do I do so? I'm having the same issue, fresh game, fresh install, he starts to build the agricultural plot and just seems to be stuck in an animation loop or something. Doesn't respond when I try to talk to him.
 
I had the agriculture plot problem but solved that with console commands, though the stranger never did the building animations/the scaffolding never came up. Now that I have placed down many more plots, residential, argi, and industrial, they are not being built it is just the base pre build materials there. There is a red house icon on the plot but I do not know what that means and the HOLO Icons Tutorial part of the City Manager holotape never loads anything lol. Does anyone else have these problems?
May I ask what commands you used? I'm experiencing an issue with this quest that I can't fix to save my life.

If you post in this category you can make the headline appropriate and then fill in all the important details and include your save file within the forum post. I did that yesterday so you can find mine and check out how I did it if you'd like to see in details how I posted mine.
 
I have the same problem here, tried everything and nothing! It is driving me nuts! None of the settlers aren't even building anything while trying to bypass it.
 
May I ask what commands you used? I'm experiencing an issue with this quest that I can't fix to save my life.
sure thing I got this from KG after the first hotfix:

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

Once he finishes his scene, the quest should pick up normally - though again, without knowing the cause of this issue, it's hard to say for certain.
 
I'm getting the bug where the Stranger completes the plot and then stands there, very proud of his work, but progressing the plot none at all.

Would a modlist help too?
 
Same here. after setting up the agriculture plot he "Builds" it but doesnt happen. then he just sits there. 1.0.0c it started for me. and the construction animations are gone. the scaffolds gone. building for resident just pops right in.
 
I got through the whole quest line but he redid the agricultural plot several times before progressing and now the quest is complete but it’s stuck showing active but all steps done for me.
 
I have encountered a bug during the Plotting the Future wherein The Stranger finishes building the industrial plot,, and the objective is marked as completed (as seen in the screenshot); however, the quest doesn't move past this point,, and you are unable to talk to The Stranger

I had the same issue, like he finished the Industrial but then doesn't move past that
I've had the same issue but with the Agri plots. I had to go into console to skip that stage of the quest. The quest id is xx04523c, by the way. SQT didn't wanna work, so I had to open up the Creation Kit and hunt it down. You'll want 35 to skip the Agri plot stage and 65 to skip the Industrial plot stage.

Keep in mind this does run the risk of breaking things if you aren't extremely careful. But so far I haven't had any problems
 
So I started a new game, with the same modlist I was using previously, the only difference being I took out all SimSettlements related mods/addons/cityplans and added SS2, SS2 extended files, as well as Superstructures as Wasteland Ventures for SS2.
I started the game as normal, and then was approached by The Stranger after getting Preston to Sanctuary. I had already placed a City Planner desk by this point and started some city building, as well as had some plots started.
He led me through the residential quest just fine, but when he started the agricultural plot, he started the "building" animation loop (mostly hoeing) and stayed there for, by this time, two in game days. I can no longer touch the ASAM sensor associated with the plot (unavailable during quest) and when I tried going into workshop mode to scrap the plot and place a new one to hopefully unstick him, it left the ASAM sensor there but I was unable to scrap it or interact with it in any way, and it was clipping inside the new ASAM sensor. I reverted the save and am currently just letting him 'build' while I go do other things, in hopes that perhaps his cell being reset will unstick him.
My most recent save files are here.
