Niles doesnt construct the explosive to breach the vault door and becomes bugged instead making me stuck in the mission Do More Harm

I am having problems with the do more harm quest as well. I can't talk to Miles the moment I go into the sealed door room.. please fix this obsidian!!

Yes having this same Niles issue he's bugged and won't do anything so I can't progress in the game at all

This bug is game breaking, I can't progress at all anymore. Niles has the speech bubble but I can't talk to him and I can't do anything to more forwards.

Please fix this.

I hope this is fixed soon. Game is unplayable and I’m gonna have to shelve it until it’s fixed. Can’t fast travel out of the quest location. My last auto save doesn’t take me back enough and my last manual save file is 14 hours ago (I’m going to be manually saving a lot more after this!) 

I got stuck for about a day here without a save old enough to try again, with seemingly the only way to escape being to shoot Zebulon and then Niles.  What worked for me was approaching Zebulon and pressing 'e' to talk to him three or four times, each time he tries to fob you off so it's easy to be led into not considering trying to talk to him again but after a few attempts it triggered Niles to give me the explosive gel.

I having the same issue here, Niles is stuck with the chat bubble over his head and will not move. I don’t have the proper saves to go back so I will have to shelve this game in hopes of a fix soon.

Same problem as the above, are you working on a fix to this problem ? dont have a previous save so need to start over with the game -.-

Hello,  same problem as the above, are you working on a fix to this problem ? dont have a previous save so need to start over with the game

Please fix this :)

I am having the same issue and have tried other fixes by users on this forum with no luck what so ever 

 For me Niles makes the explosive. But once inside nothing initiates. Zeb walks in and just stands there. nothing else. just stuck loading to there or losing 5 hours of gameplay which is a put the controller down and walk away sort of thing for me right now. id rather restart if i have to do all that and at the same time i dont wannt do any of that anytime soon. so i hope there is a fix soon.

Any idea when the next patch will be released?
Are there really developers reading our messages?
I'm stuck and my only save is 20 hours into the game.

I really don't want to start all over again.

Despite everything, I love this game and would really like to finish it.

Same issue!!!
This is ridiculous!
Obsidian, fix it!

Same issue, I'd lose at least 10 hours if I roll back but he will not respond.
