Primary Bug Report Vim and Vigor - Quest fails to update after start and Kaitlin is non-interactable

I started the Vim and Vigor Quest and went into vault 81 but when I entered there was no quest marker anywhere. I went around and talked to every NPC and nothing happened. I've seen people mention Katlin Paris in other vim and vigor threads so I talked to her. all she ever says is "Hello there", "Well hello", or "Hi'ya". Am I missing something or is this a bug.
 
Three fusion cores? I don't remember that part of the quest.
When you first enter Vault81 that's one of the paths to being allowed entry; if you don't/can't pass the Speech check in that initial dialog over the radio when you try to open the Vault Door, they ask you for three Fusion Cores to give to the Overseer.

To get into vault 81, you need to either give them 3 fusion cores, or pass a charisma check when talking to them over the intercom at the entrance.

EDIT: The previous post with the answer did not display when I entered this one.... oh well.
 
My quest is also bugged. Got guest from Ron, then went and talked to Piper to finish "Story of the Century" and then went straight to vault 81. Got in via persuasion. Walked right in, talked to overseer, and then tried to talk to Cedric. All Cedric says is Hello. Katlin only says hello and Rusty is all vanilla speech. Have not done hole in wall quest, did Austin's tour after failure to get Cedric to talk. I did/do have schematics in hand and it makes no difference. I tried dropping them and talking, picking back up and talking and nothing new.

Aside from the SS2 mods, I've been using the rest of these mods for a while through multiple characters with no apparent issues. I've only just started having issues after putting SS2 in the mix.

On top of this quest, I also have issues with Sanctuary, I cannot send anyone there from other locations and I cannot assign anyone to the city planners desk. Tells me I do not have control of Sanctuary.

Any and all advice is welcome. Loved the first SS mods and was super thrilled when I came across SS2. Now if I could just play through everything.

Here is a list of completed quests in the order completed, top being the first one.

War Never Changes
Out of Time
Laying Foundations
When Freedom Calls
Plotting the Future
If I Had a Hammer
Casting a Line
Scavver's Delight
Returning the Favor
Suburban Disturbance
Well Well Well!
Sanctuary
Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
Hub of the Problem
The Coolest Cat
Story of the Century
Vault 81

I also am playing on the Xbox Series X, if that makes any difference at all.
 
Hello, my quest I think is bugged as I can't even enter vault 81 to start on Vim and Vigor Quest. I keep getting a come back later message on left on my screen each time when I try walking in the entrance to the vault.

I had the same "Come back later" problem preventing me from enter Vault 81, and for my case another story mod "Heart of Darkness" was the cause of problem.
The said story mod blocks entrance to several vanilla locations, including Vault 81, Gunner's plaza and several other places until the said mod's story progress enough to reach these locations.
Maybe you happen to have the same mod active in your list?
 
The problem I had recently with Vim and Vigor was the waterpipe with the desk covering it wasn't there. Not 100% sure it wasn't me that stuffed something up. Used the holotape to skip past it and Jake dissappeared. I don't know how to copy my modlist to post and be more useful.
 
I have 3 characters for trying out different ideas when playing SS2. I just completed the Vault 81 part twice recently and it has always worked. I have no other quest mods because to me, that's an obvious conflict or potential one considering how many locations are changed.

Lose the quest mods.
