The settler will respond with dialogue, but there is not confirmation and the
Task remains unclear-assigned.
Can't assign guards, farmers, beds... Nothing.
Me too. Same problem. I'm not sure about the time being after 1.03 but I'm in New Zealand and my time is different so I cannot assign settlers. Period!
Like you, Tags, the settler will confirm but does nothing. And between 20-60 mins later I'll get the written confirmation. But it doesn't happen! I've gone back to the settlement to find the settler I've given a Missile Launcher too and assigned to a strategic guard post still 'Unassigned' and standing about like an idiot, while one woman will be merrily 'guarding' four guard posts.
Since this latest patch my game is broken. Actually I have no idea why I'm still playing it because it makes me constantly angry! BETHESDA, what have you done!?!?!
Hmm, i assigned a settler a couple ours ago, on a farm. But it works fine.
Maybe it's related to some specific locations?
