[Clear Sky Complete] NPCs arent spawning in before a reload. caused a softlock
like the title says, i am using the "clear sky complete" mod. for clear sky.
NPCs, quest neccesary NPCs, bartenders, corpses for setpieces (freedom commandant questline, finding pda off corpses part), random enemies, mutants, and probably others, arent spawning in before a quicksave and quickload.
this has culminated in me getting softlocked in the "find fang" questline. the part where you get flashbanged and bandits chat is entirely broken because the bandits literally dont spawn in, and because they arent required to spawn in before the scene begins, i cant reload to make them spawn in. as its a cutscene i cant save or load, so this situation is unfixable.
this didnt happen the last time i played clear sky complete in 2024, and this bug has never happened before, either on SoC complete or CoP back in 2024. no new edition of CSC has come out since then either.
so far i havent found a fix yet, despite others suffering the same issue. please help!
