📋 About This Mod
Seems pretty silly that once you give Sierra 30 quantum, she just puts them in her vending machine which you can then steal from, and sell them back to her. This mod replaces the vending machine with a static, so you can no longer steal the quantum back after turning them in to her.
Utilizes Base Object Swapper to work.
Requires Tale of Two Wastelands to be useful.
Requires a plugin that contains the newly created static record. Merge it so you aren't wasting a plugin slot (Wall release ESL please).
This tiny gameplay fix for Fallout 4 stops the Nuka-Cola Challenge quest from accepting stolen Quantum bottles, closing an exploit that let players cheese the quest. With 30 endorsements and 46k downloads, it's a niche but popular fix for purists and roleplayers.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a real exploit that breaks immersion for roleplayers
- Tiny download and install, no bloat

⚠️ Cons
- Only 30 endorsements — small but dedicated userbase

For Fallout 4 players who hate using exploits and want a more honest playthrough. Also for completionists who want the quest to work as intended. Skip if you don't care about the exploit or actually use it to speed up the challenge.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install with your mod manager (like Vortex or MO2) and enable it before starting the Nuka-Cola Challenge quest.
- If you already have stolen Quantum in your inventory, the mod won't retroactively fix them — turn them in before installing or drop them.
- Load order doesn't matter much for this tiny fix, but keep it active with other quest mods to avoid conflicts.
