Doom that came to Roseway quest autocompletes when arriving at Roseway.
I've restarted the game to get through the DLC, and I'm currently going through the main questline.
Started the abovementioned quest, finished the quest to get the commemorative case back (which if you ask to "get the good word in with the boss" doesn't make outlaws friendly anymore it seems?), spoke to the boss, got her out, got the research, got the security team to buzz off.
Problem, I fast-travel to Roseway to talk to Anton and hand the research in, but it automatically completes the quest, it gives me only XP, no reputation gain or items, and I got no idea what to do to get around this. Anyone else experience this issue?

I also have this bug. I put all the Raptidons to sleep, convinced the guards at the front of the building to go back to town peacefully, got the keycard to unlock the cell, meaning I "cleared the way", then released Cassandra and convinced her to hand over the research. Then on returning to town it auto completes and I cannot talk to anyone about the data and "Find Anton's Data" is marked as failed. I just walk in to find the head guard talking to Anton about him leaving or whatever and the research isn't that important.

A couple of weird things happen throughout though..
If after I release Cassandra I go in the elevator to the front area where the guards were, or try to leave through that door, I hear a soundbite which I assume is meant to be the guards and marauders attacking each other but they are not fighting or present. If I go out the back I don't get this. I saw online others with this issue from a year or two talking about releasing Cassandra too soon after convincing the guards and they bump into each other and fight, so I tried waiting a while but that did nothing either.

As soon I agree to help Cassandra then the step for Find Anton's Data fails. Once I have resolved everything and convince her to hand over the research, at the top of the screen I see that part of the quest changed/marked as success and to go talk to anton next, but if I tab into the journal its still marked as failed.

If i Leave and return to the lab a time or two ( I was moving all the gear I looted to my ship before going to town) then when I've heard the soundbite and such the quest adds that not only did I do it all peacefully, but it also adds to the list that I killed the guards. I tried reloading a few times and doing stuff in different orders or dialogs but I cannot seem to complete all the steps It all seems very bugged.

Here is an image of the bug that occurs in on scenario where I convince them to leave and then apparently wipe them out (i didn't) https://imgur.com/a/HNnz2XK

Also worth noting I still get that Guard/Maunder attacking each other sound clip if I re-enter through the front door of the lab, even after I've already completed the quest and been back to town/seen the guards there safe.

I have not heard the soundbite, but what I tried was A) My usual path which is kill the rapts near Lilian's gate, (normally I'd not kill these guys but) kill the bandits on the way to Cass, clear up the sleep gas situation, talk to Cass, get her out, talk to guards, leave and fast travel to Roseway. This resulted in auto-completion. B) I have tried going fully and entirely with Anton, killing Cass immediately and talking to guards afterwards, leaving for Roseway. Same result as before. Autocompletion. I distinctly recall this working just fine before with Peril, so I presume something broke with this latest DLC.

Interesting. this is my first play through so aside from reports of various bugs in the quest being reported a year or two back, and some saying do things in different orders to fix it when I googled it, I have never seen it work myself. Slightly annoying though.
