📋 About This Mod
Upon arrival, the dialogue quest stage will be set to "done", causing the gate to instantly open and Piper to move towards the Diamond City interior.
Overview
Sets the DialogueDiamondCityEntrance quest to Stage 22 when the game starts. The mod is inspired by Diamond City Gate Open, however the gate opens automatically upon reaching the quest activator.

Debugging
I recommend testing the mod with your current load order; you can do this directly from the start menu via the console commands below.
-
[]Type:
tdetect – toggles AI detection, essentially making you invisible. NOTE: Turn it off, if your testing NPC dialogue.[/
][]To teleport into the cell of interest, type coc followed by:
DiamondCityExt[/
-
[]Type:
Using tdetect and coc from the start menu forces the game to initialize a New Game state. This is essential for testing scripts and quests, as these often fire only once when the game starts. Since these triggers are baked into save files and are difficult to reset, you should always test directly from the main menu.
