Explore Vault 88 - Oops
So I completed exploring Vault 88 before the overseer asked me to explore. Do I just wait now or have I already found a game breaking bug? I tried running through each cave to no avail.

Fix: Slept 24 hours and the objective completed.

Do you have already activate all workshops? There are 4 in total in vault 88 i think. My mission finished once i did that
Croak Jul 26, 2016 @ 2:46am 
Yep. Even scrapped everything.

Ok i think you might broke it. Do you have an old save you can load before you explored 88?
DONAR Jul 26, 2016 @ 2:53am 
but did you also explore vault ♥♥♥♥?

Lol the one I loaded before heading to 88 and starting the DLC. I'll probably just wait a day or two for the quest info on the wiki to be filled out so I can use console commands.

Got that, I wondered back down one of the side tunnels (towards the rail station) and it auto completed.

I'm not sure, but I think by "explore Vault 88" it means "♥♥♥♥ around until settlers show up".
What I'm thinking is during the quest A Model Citizen after you turn on the Vault 88 Radio Beacon and the nextstep tells you to explore Vault 88 (that's what I see in the finished quest, anyways).
Unless you mean the quest "Explore Vault 88" where you have to activate all the workshops and it isn't detecting that you've activated them.

Just mentioning, you don't have to finish (or even try to do) the quest "Explore Vault 88" to go to the next step of "A Model Citizen". As I mentioned, you literally just have to ♥♥♥♥ around until settlers show up to be interviewed as guinea pigs.
I spent this time collecting all of the feral ghoul corpses (and bits) into one giant pile.

I'll try that after the classic 'sleep 24 hours and try again' fix and report back.

Slept 24 hours and it completed, looks like its just a disguised wait quest.

Yeah, it goes away after a while. I did the same thing and was prepped to make a 'final inspection' run in case there were checkpoints, and just as I set off the quest completed.

I feel so ignored... If anybody needs me, I'll be crying in the corner...

Starting with the sleeping was a direct result of your comment lol. *pats on back*

yeah, it was just a waiting jobby. Is it just my imagination or does the game want you to build an overseer desk and turn on the beacon before you've even built the damn thing??

Ironically, I hate settlement building, but I like having good settlements and I don't much like any of the blueprints I've seen. Methinks I may upload my own when this is all done. Only got Vault 88 and Mechanist lair to build and scan and then I'm done building in Fallout 4 FOREVER.
