Bug on 'Mystery Meat' mission

[Nynir]

So I'm going through the mission, and he (Collins) mentions that I shouldn't go into the basement. Naturally I do.

When I get down there, stuff happens, not going to spoil it, but the elevator is busted. When I go to the console nearby to try and to open the nearby door, there's no option for it. I explored the room with the mongrel meat, but I can't get out, or continue the quest...

Any advice?

I tried reverting to a save before I went down the elevator the first time, and that didn't help. I met the same problem as before.

you actually find another way back in the main hall

For real? I searched for 20 minutes, and eventually gave up and watched a walkthrough which showed controls on the terminal to open the door

I had this problem, googled this, agreed with the video... then ran some tests.
I know the problem.

It's the addon SSEx (Settlement Supplies Expanded). For whatever reason, it removes all instances of "Remote Door Control" from any terminals, making you unable to progress in several areas - and straight-up trapping you in this one.

Disable SSEx for now until there is a fix. The addon Homemaker will still add additional items (though not as many) if you still need to scratch that itch, and works fine.

EDIT: SSEx has been updated and no longer has this problem - just get the new version and everything will work dandy.

Hey guys, I was searching though the community and found this, I cant get te dialogue option to pop up to start this mission with Collins its just blank, does anyone have the quest ID so that I can setstage in the console??? Thank you so much!

Jay, if that's the bug I thing it is, you talked to the trader in the Vaultsuit before talking to the man running the cannery. For whatever reason, that's a no-no, and will break him.

You could reload before talking to her to fix it, but you can also get the quest yourself by heading straight to the elevator out back and riding down.

I spoke to the trader first, she went outside. Then spoke to Collins. No mission, I wasn't aware there was one. I went outside and spoke to the trader, she had additional dialogue.

Then I went back in and had a look round for magazines or something, then he says Yeah, have a good look around. So I turned and spoke to him again and then he says Just don't go snooping in the basement. Then the mission started.

I've heard some weird things about this mission. I spoke to both the trader and Collins, but never got a quest. Collins simply told me not to go to the basement (which naturally I did). Only then did I get the quest.

Over people have said that he can give you a quest to exterminate some sort of creature (dont remember what) from the basement.
