Spoilers if you have not started SS2 yet.
Started a new playthgough after seeing that SS2 dropped, grats by the way. I was not sure how SS2 would trigger but I assumed it would be related to Concord and Preston like normal. On my way to the Museum of Freedom I notice the changes to the Hardware store and investigated. I saw the breadcrumb on the terminal that talked about asam tech being in the Satallite Facility over by the Robotics Disposal Yard, so I decided to head over there instead of talking to Preston.
I cleared out the Satallite station and indeed in the locked treasure room I found a new box full of what looked like asam tech, but I could not interact with it, so I figured I must not have triggered the quest yet and went back to Preston. Sure enough after talking with him, clearing the town, but leaving Preston et all still in the Museum, I went back to Sanctuary and the Stranger showed up and started the SS2 quest lines.
I followed the quests, but I think I threw a wrench into one of the starter quests, I noticed that SS2 gives you the 8 settlers you need immediately so you have enough to assign plots for the quest, but I ended up reassigning one of those original 8 to the supply chain between Sanctuary and Red Rocket. Too late I realized I needed to assign that settler to an industrial plot or an agricultural one, doh! I tried to reassign the settler but they would not unsasign from the supply line so I decided to just wait until another settler was recruited.
While I waited I talked to Abernathy as I had already cleared the Satallite station and had the locket, unlocked the farm as a settlement, then once I had a new settler recruited at Sanctuary the quest autocompleted and I got the quest line to progress.
Once I got to Scavver's Delight I tried to go to Abernathy and talk to him as that is an optional portion of the quest, but all that happens when I talk to Abernathy is that I say the standard "I want to trade a few things", even though he has a quest marker over his head. So I was like oh well maybe he is bugged and I moved on to the Satallite Station. I found Jake's stash of supplies but I could not interact with it, so again I was like oh well, and moved on to the Satallite Station.
Jake did his thing told me he would wait for me and I went in. First problem was I could not interact with the terminal, I already had the key so I opened the treasure room but I could not interact with the crate. I then cleared out the entire place and got the prompt to meet Jake outside. I still could not interact with the terminal or the crate and when I got outside Jake was nowhere to be found. The quest markers are all there for Jake, and once outside the Satallite Station it tells me to go back in to retrieve the material but I cannot interact with anything.
Did I break the quest by clearning the Satallite station first, or talking to Abernathy before asked too, or not taking Preston and gang back to Sanctuary?
I know its very early and I could just restart but at least I wanted you to know that some people do things in weird ways that might mess with your quest triggers.
Oh one other thing, I placed a city planners desk before I did any of this, as I noticed I could make it and wasn't sure if I needed to for things to start up.
Great work, and hope this helps flush out some bugs.
EDIT: Okay plot twist, I went down to the quarry did that quest and decided to check on the Satallite station again, as I was running up Jake was there way down south of the station below the cliffs, so I tried to talk with him and he is talking about being shot, so I ask if he needs help and he starts to reply and as he is replying to me he is doing this walk around animation and no matter how I do it he always walks out of range of me and resets. But I cannot walk closer to him as I am locked in place as the animation plays.....suggestions.
EDIT2: I cycled through all the converstaion options until I found one that was short enough to complete before his walking animation took him out of range, gave him a stimpack but now he just ignores me when I talk to him, even though he has a quest marker over his head.
EDIT3: Okay after I found Jake wa down south by the semi with the flat bed below the Satellite Station I decided to give it one more try, I entered the Satellite Station again and when I came out I heard shooting, some settlers where fighting some raiders I helped out and sent the settlers to Abernathy. I think the fighting was close enough to cause Jake to come out onto the road becasue after the encounter I saw him way down by the truck slowly walking up the road. He would take two steps stop, take two steps stop. He did this all the way into the Satellite Station and completed the quest.
So not sure what caused all the clunckyness but it eventually worked out! Hope this info helps the mod team or anyone else in tihs situation.
