Quest stuck

[CXR FourSpoons]

I'm stuck on the "Assigning the Bailiff" quest because the "Build a Great Hall" section isn't ticked, even though I do in fact have a Great Hall built.
And it seems like I can't build another one and if I demolish the one I have, it'll take all my other Manor House buildings with it.
Any way round this? I haven't had any new quests for hours so I'm assuming the fact I can't complete this is stopping others from appearing........

Are you using any mods? Because some of these tutorial advice quests can get stuck if you are.

No, just the base game.

I've got stuck on this one too several times. Your Bailiff is a commoner so, until you can actual meet the criteria to promote a serf to a commoner, you cannot assign a bailiff

I find this particularly frustrating as you also can't have a tax collector until you can promote a serf to commoner status in this role too, especially now as markets don't generate revenue. You need 2 types of food sold at markets, which is relatively easy; one source of common goods, which you need to import at this stage (even though it's really hard to make money without commoners as all common goods producers are commoners; and a church

So focus on collecting berries and making planks for export, in order make enough money to buy tools and candles or common goods whilst growing your population, feeding them fish and keeping them happy

My first village is serfs with 2 foods. I try to produce a 3rd food, wood, planks, and stone. My next village, I build the sheep/cloth/cloths industry. I promote just enough (to commoner) for the Weaver and Tailor. They grumble a little bit, but always stick around till I can set up a goods stall with cloths.

In that case could you please post a screenshot so we can see exactly what is going on there?

You can also join us on discord where we can provide more direct support: discord.gg/foundation

Thanks all. I guess I should have provided more detail. I'm much further on in the game compared to where you'd usually be when doing that quest, it's been stuck there for months.

I'm way past the commoners stage, I've assigned the bailiff and he's been working away. It's just I can't get the Great Hall section to tick.... The final one I can complete and it ticks the box and then after some time it unticks and I can do it again. But the Great Hall box never ticks...

Here's the screenshot.

In your screenshot you don't show the actual sub-buildings and their construction status, if you want please upload your save file via googledrive/onedrive/etc. link here for us to take a quick look :)

Ohhhhhhhhhh. In getting this screenshot, you lead me to realise what the problem is. There is a monument I've placed ages ago and completely forgotten about and is sat there uncompleted. It needs 95 marble and I've only just starting collecting marble.

Still seems a little unfair that it says I don't have a Great Hall when it's just a statue out front that's the problem. I guess I just have to wait for it to finish building.

Thanks for leading me to it!

Indeed if the construction doesn't finish the building doesn't count as complete for the quest.
