Solved Vault 88 - A New Problem - Game Freezes

[Slb1]

Well this is a new one:

• entered the vault, scrapped/cleared/freed the Overseer, eliminated the ghouls, and saved the game
• scrapped and cleared the tunnel with the Mirelurks, and saved the game
• scrapped/cleared the opening to the room with the uranium, and (1) tried twice to snipe the radscorpion - the game froze both times; (2) tried sending in Ada - the game froze; (3) used the console command "kah" and tried to save the game - the game froze; (4) used the console command "kah", entered the room, started scrapping the uranium and tried to save the game - the game froze; (5) used the console command "kah", entered the room, started scrapping the uranium, and the other radscorpions appeared but were frozen in-place, used "kah", and went back to the main room and tried to save the game - the game froze. There must be a message there somewhere!
• researched Steam and this was a relatively common problem, but it was generally due to 2 mods - Scrap Everything and Homemaker. I do not have either mod

Suggestions/comments/advice are always appreciated. May try again tomorrow and, if it continues, will reload an old save and ignore Vault 88.

that sounds like a variation of the mole rat bug. there's a post i made, here https://www.simsettlements.com/site...-rocket-mole-rat-cave.11639/page-2#post-84208
further down i posted a mod that i installed into my game that helped me - you may want to try it in your game as it sounds like its hosed to me so you have nothing to lose; https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12997
