Arcade Gannon Duplicate Glitch
Okay, so I've got a problem with Arcade Gannon that is really pissing me off. My problems started when I left him to wait at Camp McCarran, along with ED-E. Well, when I went back to get them, ED-E was there, but not Arcade. It showed on the map that he was somewhere near the Gun Runners stand. When I went there, he wasn't there either, so I looked up a console command and placed him at my location to dismiss him to the Lucky 38. I then went to pick up Cass to finish her quest, and dismissed her to the Lucky 38. After that I went and got Boone to send him there too.

Well, when I got to the Lucky 38, there was a duplicate of Arcade Gannon. Two of him. And they both follow me. One of them brings up the companion wheel, and one automatically makes me talk with him. I sent him to the Old Mormon Fort, and I thought my problems were over but eventually the duplicate reappeared.

Is anyone else having this problem? And more importantly, do you have any idea how to fix it?

are you sure you didnt use a console command to spawn a new one? and did you try using a console command to remove one of them?

I used player.placeatme <base id> I do believe. Not sure about a command to remove one of them. I tried killing one but it failed the quest Auld Lang Syne for me, which I plan on doing.

I've seen the bug listed on Nukapedia. Could you tell me about a console command to remove one?

It's been a while since I posted this. Don't quite remember how I solved the issue, sorry.

That worked, thank you. AND TO ANYONE ELSE, after cloning him fast travel to get both and only delete the clone :P I think this is the best way to find him.
