Optimize the powerplant

Speak to Council member McClure in Vault City to get this quest.

Speak with Festus, he will then tell you to optimize the plant and give the optimization disk. Afterwhich proceed to Vault City, speak with McClure and run the disk on Level 3 Vault Computer. Return to Gecko and optimize the plant.

Another NPC in Gecko mentions that if the powerplant is optimized, Gecko and Vault City can trade electricity for medical supplies. Nice thought, Vault City doesn't agree - if the powerplant is optimized, Vault City invades Gecko, takes control of the city and enslaves the ghouls. Jerks. There is an option to present McClure with a holodisk showing the power the plant could produce if optimized, and the player can have McClure offer to speak to the Vault City council about a trade agreement with Gecko, but this does nothing to change the result. Once the plant is optimized, Gecko's fate is sealed.
