Star cap problem

[Zachshock]

I can't find Tomas and Jacklyn having a gun fight near Nipton is this a glitch? I don't even hear any noises of their gun fight.

Its a random encounter, so its not always going to happen every game play

Its happened in other areas for me before, not just Nipton.

according to wiki it's only scripted tto happen in the outskirts of Nipton

"If the player character does not actually pass the area in which they have the gunfight, they may be randomly approached by either of them later in the game."

"Sometimes the gunfight doesn't happen."

It appears forgetting to pick up a star cap will prevent the encounter from happening.
