Having an issue with this companion. I sent him back to the lucky 38 and ever since I cant get him to travel with me anymore. Has anyone run into this problem or have a way of fixing it?

Yeah, I've had this. Thankfully, it can be solved... or at least it could in my case.

Do you have Rex or ED-E with you? If so, part ways with them, then take on Arcade; he'd say something about you being in your good graces again, or something.

Check the Fallout wiki. Or, for a less explicit spoiler...

Spoiler

Visit points of interest to a former member of the Enclave. After a few occasions where he comments on something being interesting, he should give you his quest. Group him with ED-E, and he should comment on the bot; that counts as one.

When I got the quest it was just after I took him to the Vertibird crash in the south-central part of the map, the third comment of his. However, on a reloaded save, I took him there with ED-E also in tow, and he didn't start the quest. I don't know if that means the number of comments he has to make before he gives the quest is variable, or if you can't have ED-E with you for him to start it.

I took him to the crashed Virtibird and to the Repconn HQ and then he gave me the quest. No Ed-E or other locations needed. (although he might have bumped into ED-E in Vault 38, I can't remember)

Arcade's quest is awesome btw... or the conclusion is anyway . The best follower quest imo. Essential.
