Defend the castle stuck at 0%

[Rookie2311]

I'm doing the main minutemen questline fine until I reach this quest. I have killed all synths that have attacked the castle and searched around the walls and nearby town and found nothing, and it still says "defend the castle 0%" in the objectives list. I have reverted to a previous save but all that did was spawn more synths and no make the % go up from 0.

I think 0% is for defense. You need to add defenses in the settlement to go forward in the quest.

Try building turrets and guard posts

I've built turrets and guard posts, that objective completes fine but it's when the synths attack it's like it doesn't register they're dead for the quest so it does not progress

I've get this very rarely and the simplest solution is to fast travel to the accordingly location and hope for the rest of enemies spawn back and the fight gets over or if there were nothing left to kill and only the message would not tick....again fast travel and the quest will be updated.

[Rookie2311]

okay I'll try that and see if it works

[Rookie2311]

It didn't work

Then you're using modifications that are causing conflict in your game.

[Rookie2311]

Yeah that'll probably be it, but I didn't think the mods I'm using would break the game like that

Just FYI, this is a 100% verified bug in unmodded vanilla Fallout 4. Don't let facts get in the way of anti-mod vitriol though

This.
Actually ''mod'' even fixes it and it's on Nexus caled ''Castle Stuck fix'' or something similar, use google people ;)

[Rookie2311]

I have googled the problem but it never showed up but thank you I will check that fix out

[kr1xen]

did you found a fix? I have the same problem

[Rookie2311]

Yes I found a fix, I used a console command to complete the stage and progress the quest

[MiZta_Z0mbie]

Hey, you wouldn't happen to know the console command u used to progress the level do you? I'm stuck at 00% as well and killed every synth that came by way, didn't even go up to 10% at all.

I had this 0% Castle mission stuck as well even after I killed synths. I'm not OCD soI just kept playing other missions. I can't explain why, but there's a mission (story, I believe) where we escort the huge robot across the city. Upon arrival after killing the enemies, I got that mission xp, and for whatever reason, the mission Defend the Castle popped as well directly afterwards.
