Solved "No Factions Available" even with faction pack installed

Hello all, I have a bug to report. I have recently got this fantastic mod working with my game; however, I skipped Jammer's questline and promptly shot him like the affront to Atom that he is, then added the "Slaver" perk via console, as I intend not to slaughter the heretics, rather forcing them to labor to repent until they see the ways of blessed Atom. However, once I secured a settlement in Far Harbor and constructed a War Planner's Desk, I received a "no factions available" screen. I relocated to the Commonwealth and tried again, to the same result. What wicked sorcery is this? Have you coded your mod to defy the Will of Atom?! It will not permit me even to stoop to using the Super Mutants, the Gunners, or even *shudder* the Minutemen (all faction packs I have installed alongside the glorious Children of Atom) for my righteous persecution of the Commonwealth for its wicked iniquities. Is this your cruel joke, modder? Do you resist Atom's conquest, or have I broken the mod and handicapped my own progress towards the Great Division? I humbly await a response, but if I find that you intentionally resist the Will of Atom itself, rest assured I shall purge your mod from my load order with the Mighty Glow!

Additionally, is/could Knockout Framework and/or Intimidation be used to effectively gather laborers to toil in the Gamma Fields? Asking for a friend.

(In all seriousness, though, the mod is encountering issues with functionality and I'm unsure what's causing it, any help would be appreciated!)

I will say happily that it isn't often "I am entertained reading a bug report" but you were successful. :ty2
It is patch and update Friday so maybe we'll see Atom shed some light on the situation. :this
:scratchhead Remember to update everything, we all know what happens when we split atoms. :sorry
:rtfm I would look for the patch notes later tonight. :unknw For divine insight. :umnik2

Maybe a new particle has been introduced that needs to be accounted for by the add-on packs? :unknw


hummm, not seeing help in the patch notes? https://simsettlements.com/web/wiki/index.php?title=SSConqPatch

Just double checking, but was the settlement cleansed when you took over or were there already believers or un-believers there?
 
They are willing to convert.

Sure. And when the next prophet with glowing hammer shows up they'll willingly convert again.

There were docile civilians there.

Settlement needs to be unpopulated for faction packs to show, right???

But...
I also tried this at an empty settlement with the same result.

The next top of the box question is: Did you give it some time for the list to populate?

Always claim Red Rocket as your first settlement. Non-liberator factions can only claim empty settlements. And give the desk a few minutes to load the packs.

I know you probably see yourself as a liberator, but maybe your religious fervor is getting in the way of patience. Patience like gold is golden and hard to come by.

I see wisdom in your words, even if you ARE a heathen cur... I shall try this at Red Rocket and see if it fixes the issue. One by one... each will see Atom's glory. They will bathe in His Glow. And when all are united in sacred Division... a glorious era of prosperity and love will bloom from the blasted soil of the Old World. Every eye shall be blind with his glory! Every ear shall be stricken deaf to hear the thunder of his voice!

I shall keep you informed on my crusade's progress... should I succeed, you and yours will convert to Atom willingly... or serve Him in chains.
 
Atom be praised! The authors of this mod are not filthy heretics after all! I went to a heathen den of debauchery untouched by Conqueror, a wretched place of squalor known as "Abernathy Farm", and freed their noble wildlife from their insidious clutches. They lay in the dust, with Atom now, and their cat has taken a liking to my Ghoul. I then established an outpost and took the time to pray to almighty Atom and He answered my prayers, blessing me with the means to begin the cleansing of the Commonwealth by His scouring Glow! A thousand blessings upon you, and as Atom is my witness, you are ALL honorary Children of Atom. You shall be spared the purging, provided you do not stand in our way.
