Covenant Gate Key

[Pøläär §nøw]

Ok, I managed to do Human Error, and when I went back to Covenant they all came out the gate to try and kill me. They failed. But the gate says I need a key to open it to get back in. I looted all of the Covenant settlers, Penny, Jacob, Swanson, Ted, Brian, the Doc and even Talia. No one had the gate key.

Any thoughts of how I'm suppose to open the gate?

Unless Deezer has it, But he's inside with the cat someplace.

^^Well that's just really weird then. I've no idea what to suggest. I did do a video on my Covenant quest so will check it and see how I picked up the key - I'm pretty certain it was from Jacob.

Actually now that I remember it the gate has no key, The safe test is what allows you in.

Right, just checked my vid and at the bit where I looted Jacob's dead body - the only key he had on him was the Covenant Office key. Have you checked the Workshop to see if you can use it yet? Once you've killed them all you can use the Workshop and take it over. There doesn't appear to be any key for the main gate (as ironhead says).

I remember this glitch i experienced, at least back in early november:
I approached Covenant and all of a sudden after deciding to back out of talking to the gate guard, it opens automatically and i walked right in.

Just to add to my above post - ironhead mentioned earlier about something on Jacob's nightstand. In my vid I picked up Jacob's password on it, but failed to pick up the key. Try collecting both of those (it's in the first house on the left as you walk into Covenant).. it might trigger the gate working for you, can't vouch for it though.

In Jacob's house, I remember there being a key that only shows up on his night stand between 7 and 8 am (times could be wrong, it's been quite a while.) Also, not sure if that is the key in question.

I'm not sure if anybody asked her but Polaarbunny you did go inside Covenant to get the quest right?

I think the key is always there but the office is only open between those hours, which means at other times you have to lockpick your way into the house (which I did - much to Paladin Danse's disapproval!)

Just give him a hug and he will forget all about it, Or a supermutant to kill.

There is a key on Jacobs nightstand, Also you could toggle clipping and go over the gate. Unless you have PA with a jetpack.

If you toggle clipping, you can just go through the gate.

Yeah, after he disapproved of me breaking into all the houses in Covenant I did a relationship check with him and we were all hunky-dory again and he was all "I wouldn't want to smash supermutant skulls with anyone else" - seems like he has a very short memory!

I went to Covenant, did the test with Swanson, got entry. Then later did the Human Error quest, enroute back to Covenant Swanson came at me shooting. Then everyone else came out behind him. After Penny (the last one except Deezer), the gate shut and locked. I have tried to do everything without doing any cheats.

Trying to keep to the spirit of the story line.

I used the setownership command because I was unable to do or touch most things without Deezer and the turrets going hostile. I'm trying to make Covenant a useful settlement to use. But fearfull the turrets and Deezer would start shooting the settlers.

I have triple checked my triple check for a key to the gate. I'v even gone back to Compound yet again, trying to find a terminal or something that controls the gate. Mainly because of the camera's in the houses and at the gate.

Most tell me I shouldn't be, specially at my age. LOL

Lol. You're never too old to play video games. That's my excuse anyway! :)
Hmmm... Seems like in your case your game might have glitched because they all came outside. When I went back to Covenant after doing "Human Error" Swanson was the only one waiting for me (probably because it was late and the rest were all in bed) and obviously was hostile. I killed him. Then went into Covenant and killed everyone in their beds. I wasn't sure if Deezer was going to be hostile but he was fine, as were the turrets.
