What am I doing wrong? Possible Spoilers

[Malacanth]

I am struggling, I am on day 74 in story mode, Pretty sure I am getting an infected raider wave every day for awhile now, literally have taken on at least 20 waves, getting pretty good at it, every wave drops everything you need to take out the next wave.

Story progress,

I have recruited Emma and Cooper
Charlie Grant is dead
I have the worthless anonymous green passes
I am scraping by trying to keep FEMA fed through the winter even though it is early spring
I have collected enough helicopter parts to complete that quest.
I found the guy in the cabin in the wood

If I give the body of the man in the woods to Moreno he makes his march north, overthrows Malachii?, and proceeds to kill everyone, if I give him the body and don't tell him about the meat, I fight waves of infected raiders to what feels like the end of time.

Have I missed a step?

I remember in my first playthrough the scout had some quest to accuse some gal that wanted you to accuse the scout that the other was an IS. That quest did not manifest in this playthrough.

LOL i really love that charlie quest have to run from 2 communities for that useless pass. .To end the story you need either war with FEMA or your member tell about get away or take a fight to them. There are 3 endings as far as i know.

[Malacanth]

Trying to fight FEMA I guess, I am guessing the pilot does not aggro because he is in the pilots union? So I just need to wipe out FEMA?

[AlphazAW]

kinda but try to make body count low. and dialogue between moreno and malachii different depend on if malachi like you or not. And yes pilot is not FEMA.

[Malacanth]

Moreno lost the fight to Malachi and shot him dead, does that effect anything?

[AlphazAW]

nope it just mean he really likes you.

[Malacanth]

Thinking I still did something wrong, started a war, never got Unite or Die quest, started picking off FEMA troops here and never received a prompt, reloaded an old save. Malachii pities me for giving FEMA free food, Moreno hates me for pretty much no reason at all.

[AlphazAW]

forget his name but one of the man that give report about that IS raiders have to come and join your community. he will give you quest about take over FEMA.

[Malacanth]

Alright so I started completely over, Paul is in jail now, and the Liam guy of the scouts keeps screaming about not giving up his green pass, I have not turned the body over to Moreno yet.

If I understand the story req's properly, all you need to do is wait for the doom raiders to get to level2 and then keep initiating dialogue with your community members to get the ending dialogues to pop. I'd just spam convo's with everyone and exhaust their dialogues every day and that should get it to go sometime soon.

[Malacanth]

What do you mean level 2? The only thing I have ever had my people say during this is to either take the fight to them which starts one of the bad endings, to escape out east which is also a bad ending, and to say we can hold out awhile longer.

What exactly are you asking for?

You either evac yourself via fema heli.
Leave via military vehicle.
Leave via ritzville.

Thats it.

Pick one and do it.

[Malacanth]

I am looking for an exact sequence of events to even get the option to evacuate via FEMA heli.

[Theo Hardmeier]

You get the quest to fight fema via kelly or liam.

Kelly will give it once other options for gaining green passes fail.
Liam should rush to you once carter starts declaring war on communities.
Liam may fail to arrive if you have your people inside always locked gates.

Both options require handing the body to carter.

[AlphazAW]

The only thing i know to complete fema heli escape is you need to give that stranger body to moreno after that he go to fema and take over it.
the guy that alert you about IS raider will go to your camp to alert you.
after that you need to destroy satcom in fema and make alliance with other community.
after that you can start war with fema or talk to him again and he ask if you are ready.
I'm not sure if you need kelly or Emma to be alive because they always in my community. but with Emma it will simple.
after make fema surrender that guy will print one true pass that you can give to pilot to evac you.

That's the direct line of code from what the story editor requires. I'm not sure what sets it to level 2 exactly but I'll do some digging and see if I find it.

Okay if I understand the editor (I don't) It looks like the doomraiderlevel increments up 1 every time a party spawns.

So as long as you killed 2 you should be able to proc the dialogue. Best advice I can give is still to spam the "What's up" dialogue on everyone in your community.

Also, I noticed you mentioned the one accusing quest, thats a semi-random quest, it happens only if you havent found the corpse and ask about the blue eyed guy inside of FEMA. It's non-essential, and honestly only complicates the story and I recommend against it.
