I'm still having the issue with Jake not spawning. However, I discovered that storing and rebuilding and powering the beacon causes him to show up instantly.

I'm also still having the issue immediately after where no plots are available (in the SS2 menu in build mode) to place the tutorial residential plot. I've tried resetting building caches, restarting, quest skipping, and other troubleshooting. Still no plots available in the menu.

Any suggestions for a fix?

I had that problem and fixed it with Workshop Framework Script Override from https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/35004?tab=files
 
Got a little question about the "undershirt" "uniform" thing. When it gets shared out to all your troops, does that include modifications added to the clothing, or just the base item?
Specifically I was thinking of the "Vault Suit Customization" CC item that lets you colour vault suits, but as I started writing I remembered Ballistic Weave was a thing...

Can confirm things work correctly with no UFO4Patch installed. So most likely a conflict with that.

Hello! Do you have a save file you can share from before you uninstalled the patch, when the bug occurred? These can be handy for testing if minimal mods are used, which it sounds like you have.

It might be a load order issue. I am never able to reproduce this. I let Loot sort mine and it places the unofficial patch before HUD and WSFW and SS2 files.
Seems to be that most of the people that experience this issue, are on Xbox and likely don't know how to sort their mods.

"Fixed a bug that would prevent all possible diseases from appearing in the game."
Any work on where you turn off every disease option and settlers spawn sick and ruin your settlements?

"Increased damage of all Induction weaponry"
Lock the upgrade behind skills, etc, but this is greatly needed. They just barely scratch my health with better armor and skills.

Oh neat - I think that option should be locked away behind the RR quest like the normal clothes but yea - that should work (even if it doesnt yet)! :D

"Modified startup code to only run after Workshop Framework has finished initializing. This should prevent a race condition where SS2 starts running before systems it relies on from WSFW are available."
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

You could try grabbing the City Manager Holotape, and using Tools > Advanced Tools > Change Main Settlement
Pick a settlement the main story to happen in, have a sleep, then go see if Jake is there.

Have you closed Workshop Build Mode, waited a bit and tried it again? Sometimes it's script processing time to trigger the unlock for first plot class.
 
Was something tweaked about the HQ variant of Dynamic Soundscape? It's not in the patch notes, but I'm hearing noises I'd never heard while idling here before - bubbling SFX while near the Chemistry Lab, heartbeat monitor while near the Infirmary, what sounds like someone punching walls with a Powerfist off in the distance, etc...
 
The minutemen soldiers (and maybe others, didn't check) appear to have the same idle dialogue as civilian conscripts. The minutemen have their own unique combat lines, which is a part of the reason to have them, but do minutemen soldiers have them?
EDIT: railroad soldiers have standard soldier lines too, but I don't think railroad NPCs have any unique combat dialogue anyway.

Yep, tried that too. I also found an issue where the SS2 HUD elements won't work unless HUD Framework is running from the start of a playthorugh. I had removed it to only use SS2 load orders for debugging and discovered that and the UFO4Patch issues.

Thank you for your speedy reply, I have a problem with Corporate Espionage. After I get the water purifier part and reciet I return to Lydia, she has an arguement with whatshername, it doesnt matter what I say to her Cat fight or whatsup the dialog doesnt continue. I looked at nexus but can't find the patch. Do you have any suggestion. Thank you for all your help to people.
 
Can we no longer see an individual soldier's progress% to next rank, or is my game glitched in yet another extremely bizarre way? I've done four assaults now, and had a MilTraining plot in both my Outposts for over an ingame week, but I can't see anyone with a progress% or a rank above 1.
Never mind, seems I was just being impatient again, those levelup "exp" requirements must be a LOT higher now.

Very glad that it's working okay!

There was an issue before where assigning soldiers to the plot yourself (not when they auto-assigned), caused soldiers to immediately rank up twice (so they'd be immediately Rank 3 - and then they'd get stuck on that plot and never leave it, despite plots only training soldiers to rank 3). So it may seem like it takes longer because it was instant before. They should also now correctly get kicked off when they reach Rank 3, like they do with other recreational plots when they hit level 10 on a stat.
