I started a brand-new game with minimum other mods. I progressed throughout the storyline of Sim Settlements and got to the point where I took the HQ and have begun working on it. Once again, after getting to Commonwealth Rises, the mod stops functioning correctly. I cannot assign more staff to the HQ because the Automation either built the rooms and I cannot use them, or those scripts just don't' trigger when I'm looking for them.

Again, this is the second time I've arrived at Commonwealth Rising and have it break on me. It's safe to say this mod is broken and does not work for NG. I won't be trying again
When Bethesda brought out Fallout 4 with it's settlement system it was something people either loved or hated. I didn't mind the settlement building but at the same time I thought there were too many of these settlements to manage. When Sim Settlements 2 first came out I thought this mod was a godsend. I no longer had to micro manage all these settlements. All I had to do was build a city planner desk, assign someone as mayor, select or download a city plan and let the settlement take care of itself. I was even enjoying the quest and liked Jake as a character until we came to chapter 2.
At first I was intrigued by the idea of taking over Gunner Plaza and making it a base but managing the base became a chore. I don't play games to do chores. I wouldn't have minded doing a bunch of quests and see the progression of the base similar to Run The Bison Steve mod in Fallout New Vegas or the Helgen Reborn mod in Skyrim. With this latest update that process has become a lot more unbearable. Every time I fast travel to HQ I have everyone running around putting out fires or dealing with infestations despite setting up tasks to reduce such incidents leaving me unable to work on the HQ. I did not care if I hurt Lupe's feelings when I thought her VR chair was a waste of time. If I wanted to change things in a settlement I would go there myself so I can see what I'm doing.
All in all this latest chapter took out what appealed to me (and probably others) and became the Preston Garvey version of the mod. Sorry, but I'm done with this mod.
The SS2ch2 mod is ambitious and there is clearly so much love and work put into it, but it loses sight of one of the mod's most useful functions-- not micro-managing the settlements and giving them some autonomy. This mod builds its own story and tries to seamlessly integrate and parallel it into events happening in the main questline, which is commendable, but at the end of the day what chapter 2 ultimately does is put me right back n the place of micro-managing. Now I'm just micro-managing the headquarters and the supply lines, and the logistics, and etc. etc.
It overly complicates the process and I find myself frustrated with settlement building once again. Not to mention the myriad of comments reporting bugs and errors since its release in mid-2022.
I just cannot recommend it to anyone.
I got the mission to get some books from the Boston Public Library from someone from the CPD.
Arriving at the library I successfully completed the Speech option at the intercom and went inside. Once inside all super mutants instantly drop dead and I get a CTD after a few seconds.
I have no idea what's causing this. Here is my load order:
