Refurbished Goods Quest Fix - Denis Averin

DESCRIPTION Denis Averin at the UC Exchange in Cydonia has a repeatable quest called Refurbished Goods, which sends you to various locations to collect a certain number of items which you must then return to Denis.

The quest was somewhat broken in one of Bethesda's game updates, instead of the required number of items being available in the "boss chest" at the location you were sent to, only a single item would be there. The quest was still completable as you could obtain the items asked for elsewhere and still return them to Denis, but this wasn't the intended quest behavior. The quest was adding the correct number of items to the container, but the container was being reset as the player arrived at the location, removing all but one. The mission text also suggests the player has collected enough items for Denis even when they haven't picked them up yet.

This mod ensures the correct number of items will be in the container at the location you're sent to, and changes some of the quest text to clarify that you should return to Denis when you have collected the required number of items.

RANT This fix has been on Nexus Mods for over a month now. I honestly wasn't going to bother uploading here, but have eventually relented, partly as the community/unofficial patch releases have slowed. Bethesda's recent policy of allowing achievements but only on paid creations has greatly hurt any motivation I have for releasing fix mods like this on this platform. There will never be paid versions of the community or unofficial patches, and likewise I'd never charge for a fix like this (or any of my mods, for that matter). This move by Bethesda intentionally penalizes authors of free mods and Xbox users who don't want a 100% paid load order by breaking a previous understanding: that paid and free mods would have feature parity. It's disappointing to see this intentional restriction hailed as a positive by some in the modding community.
