Hello.

Let me start off by saying that, no, I don't have an old enough save file that I can use to start the quest over. I only have a quicksave for the scenario I'm about to describe.

I'm trying to either reset the quest Mass Fusion or progress beyond the quest Outside the Wire. After trying several combinations of console commands, I can't seem to get it to work right.

Mass Fusion forces you to choose between the Institute and the Brotherhood. I wish to belay this decision until I have completed more quests for either faction. Choosing the Brotherhood means speaking with Proctor Ingram. The problem is, Outside the Wire (and possibly other Brotherhood quests) requires me to speak to Ingram. Speaking to Ingram at this point, however, triggers the Mass Fusion dialogue.

I used different combinations of the commands 'resetquest InstMassFusion' and 'setstage InstMassFusion 5' - the first stage - to try to roll back the quest. Talking to Ingram after doing this, however, still triggers the Mass Fusion dialogue. I also tried instead speaking with the Institute member who previously triggered the objective and nothing.

I also tried 'completequest BoS204' and 'completeallobjectives BoS204' to further along Outside the Wire. While the former completes the quest and removes it from the list, it doesn't trigger the followup quest (which I think, funnily enough, requires talking to Ingram again). The latter ticks off the objective, but doesn't trigger the next one.

I've also played with the recycleactor command on Ingram and the Institute member to see if that reset anything, but to no avail.

So I ask you, is there a particular combination of commands I need to input to reset a quest? I'm at a total loss.

Thank you.
