Taking Point: Starlight Drive-In quest glitch - I need help
I apologise if this is the wrong place to post, but I didn't know where else to go. This will contain no spoilers about the quest, as I myself have yet to complete it.

Problem: During the quest Taking Point: Starlight Drive-In your asked to clear all enemies out of the Starlight Drive-In area. For some reason I cannot find the enemies to kill, despite being told by the game they are there. I have gone far our to search for them but found nothing. Using Dogmeat also failed.

Possible cause: I cleared out the area while exploring earlier, which may have glitched the quest.

If anyone knows a solution or has experienced this please let me know.

No I have not. I have learned that a similar glitch occurs during other quests, so we will hopefully see a fix soon.

Next to/near each of the 3 waypoints is an explodable vehicle. Blow up those 3 vehicles to "trigger" the event. (If you already have a mole rat hole in the ground from where they have already come up, just point your gun it at and shoot a few rounds.)

Try walking around more inside the parking lot. I thought I couldn't get mine to work either than out of no where the mole rats came out of the ground.

The only way I found was to use the console to finish the quest, but I can't find the quest's ID

I HAVE THE SOLUTION !
Just go to the Starlight Drive in, open your console and type : killall
Voilà !

When do you get this quest?

Note: I cleared it out earlier while working on the sanctuary quests. Also unlocked the workbench.

It's a random minuteman quest (Cool place for a settlement, go there, clear up), so from Preston. Sometimes.

If I remember correctly they are mole rats and are burried, some have had one glitch and you can't kill them.

If that happens then you can use the killall command in the console.

If you cleared it I'm told cleared areas reinfest after some time, not sure about settlements though.

Yeah still haven't gotten the quest, wonder if since I opened the work bench already and can create a settlement it won't give it anymore?

Hi everyone, I have the same issue as well. However instead of Starlight Drive-In, mine is at Kingsport Lighthouse, which I've cleared earlier before getting the mission. Even though it is the only active mission, no marker appear and I can't use the workbench as I have yet to "kill all enemies" in the area. I've even went over to Crater House to finish off the other members and tried the killall console but both don't seem to work. Does anyone have any idea?

have you activated the quest in your pipboy?

Usually once you did the 'markers' would pop over the heads of every thing you need to clean from the area.
