First off I know what you're thinking have you read the https://wiki.simsettlements2.com/en/getting-started/known-issues. Yes, yes I have. I've heard about how great SS2 is but I can't get past this mission. The stranger gives me the ASAM? sensor and I place a Residential plot. (not the foundation) BUT that's as far as it goes. The stranger is stuck in his line with no further way to progress. I've checked the incompatible mods and removed them from my load order like Build limit, scrap everything, I do however have DECAY but that shouldn't be the cause of it as I already removed the item in xedit that's causing the bug. I have no mods that alters the vanilla quest line nor have I installed sim settlement before. I already tested starting a new game but nothing, it's still stuck in the first quest. Reinstalled SS2 as well. any help?
 
Same issue.

I am returning player and wanted to join the bandwagon to say how awesome is this mod but the ASAM sensor will never trigger the RobCo message after we build the 2x2 residential plot.

I have no mod but the 3 ones required in the proper order :
8 WorkshopFramework 2.2.1
9 HUDFramework 1.0f
10 SS2 2.1.3

It is a new game, new save, I tried to complete the quest:
  • Before talking to Codsworth : no RobCo message
  • After talking to Codswroth : no RobCo message
  • After completing Concord and completing Sturges basic settlement camp : no RobCo message
  • I tried with and without the UOP : same issue
  • Tried with or without Chapter 2 installed : same issue
  • F4SE 0.6.21 is properly installed and the 2 DLL's are displayed in the plugin folder
  • Subtitles are on to make sure it is not just a sound issue, nothing trigger and stranger keep asking me to set the sensor with the 2x2 being on the ground

I did fresh install of everything from Steam, delete F4, delete remnant in "my games" folder and steam game folder.
Tried Vortex and manual install.

If you have any others tips I'll be happy to hear it, I wish you can point out something stupid I have forgot as I defently want to try that greatness !
At this moment I don't see more info to share, if you need more let us know !

Have you downloaded and installed the new hotfix today for ", Workshop Framework "
That was causing issues with that quest but has now been fixed .

He asks me to place an asam and after I do the sensor disappears and he just wanders around telling me to place it anywhere it doesn’t matter how long I wait if I sleep if I load and reload he will not continue the quest the sensor will show up if I move the plot and put it back but he won’t do anything with it and it never plays the robco message I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled everything multiple times
 
I’m on Xbox how do I get to it that way I can’t seem to find it in the Xbox mod search engine
I don't use Xbox but i believe there is some delay in updates going on there for consoles . All i can suggest is keep looking and hopefully it will appear soon . .
Someome else who uses Xbox may know more , time wise for mods to appear .

Thanks man I’ll just have to play the waiting game now damn lol
 
As stated above, do that.
I am on Xbox and have played through many times.
Just started new play through and also happened to me.
I knew I could skip it, so I did. You are not missing any part of the story if you do.
