Help with a bugged quest
While doing the quest "I don't hurt anymore", I accidently got it bugged so I'm not allowed to talk to Corporal Betsy, just getting a generic line. Some googling indicated that this happened because I set off the quest to have them help with the Fiend miniboss after getting the quest but before completing it. She is currently at Camp Forlorn Hope. I'm very hesitant to going back to an old save as I've put in several more hours of gameplay since then.

I have tried using the "setstage" console command to skip steps, which still don't let me talk to her, and I don't want to just skip to the complete stage because I'd like the bonus xp from making the speech check to convince her to get help, as well as to see all the dialogue.

I have tried reseting the quest completly, but cannot pick it up a second time, the dialogue option to ask about Betsy does not appear.

I have also tried some console commands involving the squad moving that was listed on the wiki for this quest, but couldn't get them to be recognized even after several attempts, so I'm likely misinterpretting how the wiki wants me to enter it into the console.

Any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated!

Does she say "Quit talking! We've got a job to do."?

I'm pretty sure this is the command you need to fix that problem...
set "f81bd".bgetintoposition to 0
Make sure you type the spaces and punctuation exactly the same.

Don't reset the quest or use any setstage commands, they won't help.

Worked like a charm, thank you. I must have been making a mistake entering the code before, that worked first try. Thanks for the help

Sorry to necro this thread, but I can't get this quest to work.
I have the exact same problem as Turtlewax does (though my Betsy is at the Crushing Plant at the moment) and I typed what JDC wrote exactly and she still gives me that generic line.

Is there anything else I have to do, or do I simple have to wait for her to go to Forlorn Hope and THEN type in the command or...?

I'm running a vanilla install of NV, so there are no mods interfering with anything either.

---Edit---

Guess she just had to be at Forlorn. The console command worked like a charm when I entered it there.
