Suddenly endless problems with the septic tank jobs. Is it just a bad save?

So I'm 30 hours into the playthrough and I've had nothing but issues with the septic tank jobs.

1.) 2 of the NPCs don't even show up, both in Loppe, next to Fleetari's shop. I even emptied one of the tanks since it was full and the guy called me, only to then realize I wasted my time as he never appeared. The darts are still on the map in my house, they won't disappear but nobody's ever home!

2.) Out of the 5 jobs I successfully completed with the home owners being there after they called me, 3 of them just stood there and refused to pay me! No dialogue, all the crap's been drained, but they just won't pay me.

Now I'm in Jail because that idiot Penna rammed into the back of my truck and died.

Are you playing with mods enabled? If so, which mods?

Otherwise I recommend waiting out the jail time and reloading, seeing if that fixes the issue

I got a few QoL mods now but the issues were there even when I had the game completely unmodded.

I tried reloading several time. Nothing fixes it. I found another threat where a guy said he couldn't get it to work either until he manually set the tank levels to full through MSC Editor.

I think I would go ahead and try that then, it seems it could be an issue with the game checking to see if the job is actually ready.

Yup, that works. Though I'm not sure what the correct value is lol. I remember the guy in the thread saying "49", I typed that in and it makes the NPCs spawn... but also the sewage level is now into the stratosphere.

I FIGURED IT OUT. If anyone has the same problem with the septic tanks:

In MSCEditor find the entries "sh!twelllevel01-05" (Replace the "!" with "i" of course) And change the values of the ones you want to fix to "4.9", the editor will round it up to some weird number but it doesn't matter. Also change the "sh!twelllevelcalled" attribute to "true" so it shows the dart on the map.
