Stuck in a conversation
So I noticed this a few days ago when entering Diamond City and Piper confronts the Mayor at the enterance, she then asks me what I think about Press freedom and the camera gets locked into position and I can't move, there arent any dialogue options and I have to avoid the conversation, luckily I was able to avoid that conversation by just running away. However this also then happened when starting Nuka World having to meet each leader of the gangs. This time I can't avoid the conversation with the leader of the Operators because it's an essential part of the quest. So I had to use console commands to finish that quest, but now I can't use Gage as a companion. Any way to fix this conversation bug?

Turn dialogue camera back on in the settings.

I know this is a really late reply but thank you. I have the dialogue camera because I like to play in 3rd Person while not in combat and being in Survival I would have been unhappy reloading to find out it happened again.

Happened to me with Moe Cronin after his quest. Next time it happens you might be able to free yourself by opening up the console and typing

"disableplayercontrols"
exit out of the console, reopen the console
"enableplayercontrols"

Should free you. Then, as Qnomei said turn the dialogue camera on.

My dialogue camera have always been on and 'm getting this issue right now. I actually just turned off the dialogue camera to see it would fix it but it didn't - my character started to pivot in place and the camera began shaking a little. Any suggestions??

I know this is old but I have one question; do you use Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch? Because I have gone through that dialogue countless times and never experienced this problem until I started a playthrough with that mod enabled.

If you happen to be running any mods,I'd check to see if that might be what's causing your issue with getting stuck in a conversation.

FIXED: just save and load that save. Then talk to the settler again. JNC, make sure you have a previous save or auto save so you dont lose a lot of progress.

For me, pressing V to switch perspective fixed it. I got stuck at the end of a conversation when the person I was talking to left, and none of the other suggestions here worked.

Here from the future. Thank you.

I know this reply wasn't for me but... I need help to in a similar situation and thought someone might be able to help me out. I haven't tried anything to fix it except the above mentioned comment fix saying:
"disableplayercontrols"
exit out of the console, reopen the console
"enableplayercontrols"

Easy enough for you to say, I encountered what I believe to be the same or similar issue in a different part of the game and different NPC/Dialogue only this time. But I wasn't even able to exit the conversation ever because the button for the speech reply was broken and would NOT do anything with the only button to exit the diaglogue broken, and not being a quest makes it harder to use CC's AFAIK I don't know any Cons. Comds. that allow to fix this at all anyway I'VE personally seen yet.

Oh great mighty wisdom of Steam Fallout 4 Community forum help me please and thanks in advance!

My question; BOILED Down into a piece of info much easier to swallow:
Are there any Console Commands to help me exit/close a dialogue *by force if necessary*, or to force a selected option in the speech dialogue zone to "run the script" of the command and make it "exit" (In MY case it would be to exit the dialogue).
PS: I will try the save, exit game, restart, reload, game next time as well, that sounds like it would have worked!

The reverse transcriptase needs to survive the nucleotide synthesis.

I’m not sure why this works but entering photo mode via a mod then exiting photo mode fixes this too

when the gate opens you can run straight into diamond city and skip that dialogue also
