Package Delivery

[markwmb]

I've started working on the mod quests and I've hit a snag I have the package that I need to deliver for Jason but the third party who I need to deliver it to does not show up on my scanner in game. Is this a bug or am I missing something

thanks

Hi there - are you certain that nobody is highlighted? This quest requires you to search around Akila and it can take a little while before you find your bounty target.

If you are still having trouble, and are on PC, you can move to the target via console and then bring up your scanner to check them. If they are not highlighted red, there is a problem. If they are, then they were working as intended.

I believe they mean that when they use the scanner, of course the people are highlighted, but that nothing shows up, in regards to any bounty, much less one specifically called "aggregated parking". I am also having the same issue. While it can be noted, that bounties not showing up on scanner is a known bug, that has been patched with November update for the base game, I have not personally encountered that issue, myself, thus far. So I will refine the question that markwmb was already trying to ask: Is there any particular area, within Akilla, that the target contact will likely be located, as there seems to be in issue finding them with the scanner, as bounties not showing up on anyone. Will they be indoors, or outdoors? Moreover, Is the target a named NPC, or a generic citizen? Will their scanner aura be standard orange, for a person that would reflect having a bounty? I am only adamant about a solution, because this is paid content, and have invested a considerable account of time trying to locate the contact, looking very thoroughly, at that. I have enjoyed everything about this mod/dlc up to this point. Please help.

UPDATE:
Have successfully completed mission.
The workaround went as follows:
After unsuccessfully walked around for hours scanning everyone, began to randomly start talking to anyone with an orange aura. Then my scanner shows an NPC with a bounty for something else, unrelated to this quest. I detoured a bit, to collect this bounty, and not but maybe 30 seconds after finishing up with that, an NPC shows up with a RED aura, and the relevant bounty, and boom. Done. So it would be highly speculatory, that perhaps the quest is bugged, and that collecting an unrelated bounty may be a workaround to un-bug it. Bon chance, and au revoir.

Do I need to have completed the TA intro quest, and unlock that bounty scanner feature, to complete this? Thanks.

NM, I just figured out that the answer to this is "no". For this play-through, I was only on the 3rd step of the TA quest line, "Speak with Agent No 1", before you learn about scanning bounties, and this still worked.
Nice work utilizing this feature team ^.^

For folks running into issues with the scanner (which unfortunately I am still unable to replicate both on xbox and pc), it would appear we already have several failsafes in place to prevent the vanilla engine bug from occuring (which is uncommon, and menas that a target fails to highlight in the scanner at all). This includes making a save and then reloading that save, which should fix any potential issue. Our target NPC should not be affected by vanilla bounty NPCs however - it's not unusual to find several folks showing up as red in the scanner if there are vanilla targets in the city at the same time.

For me, the vanilla target highlighted orange, showed a vanilla bounty, I collected said bounty, then moments later, the mod target popped, showing red, after searching for over an hour, in real time, yielding no results. Maybe coincidence, maybe not. Just sayin'.
Still enjoying the mod, thanks again.
