when I first go into the north vegas square, I talk to the guy who wants me to deal with some squatters, as soon as I accept, the squatters appear and are instantly hostile, my companions automatically attack and kill them (even though they are set to passive) and I gain NCR infamy.
I am given no chance to talk to squatter bill. I am on good terms with the NCR, and have played through once before and didn't have this problem, not sure where all this unwanted hate is coming from! lol
I know they are minor side quests, but I would like to do them.

bah! maybe I shouldn't wear BOS power armor......
