Mod:Fallout: The Frontier/Jungle Fever

Jungle Fever is a side quest in Fallout: The Frontier.

Discover the secret of Irvington's underground hydroponics lab and decide the future of this settlement's claim to independence.

Initiating the quest
The quest can be started by talking to Amanda, who is located in the Hydroponics lab|Irvington hydroponics lab. The door to the lab is hidden in a rock face near Old Ben's shack. Old Ben owns the key, and can be convinced to hand it over if the player knows about the lab and passes one of two checks: a 50 Repair skill check, unlocked by reading the note in Ben's locker, or a reputation check by being in good standing with the town. Alternatively, they may shoot him and loot his body.

Find Pavus
Once inside, take a left to find Amanda. Talk to her to obtain the Level One Keycard, granting access to the central lab area. The facility is infested with nightshade and spore carrier savages, who hide behind doorways and may swarm an unaware player. Unlock the door, kill the enemies inside, then walk to the door opposite and slightly to the right of where the entrance is. There is a grate on the wall which must be pried open through a 9 Strength check or by using a lead pipe. To get the pipe, leave the room and walk forward until a pair of Protectron pods can be found, next to a pile of boxes. The pipe will be on the bottom of the leftmost pod. Crawl through the grate, kill the cannibal in the other room and pick up the Level Two Keycard from the table next to the coffee maker. Leave the central area and unlock the door directly in front, then talk to Joseph Pavus|Pavus to obtain the Level Three Keycard.

Decide the lab's fate
The right-hand door leads to a corridor with a T-junction. Going right loops the player back to the entrance of the lab, while going left leads to the main growing area. Go upstairs, then enter the hatch on the floor. Turn around and go left to find Yosuke Hanamura|Yosuke's corpse and a terminal allowing three options:


 * Activate the decontamination system, destroying the crops and the infection.
 * Poison the crops, which does not remove the infection but does render the soil unusable.
 * Do nothing.

Regardless of what the player chooses to do, they must talk to Pavus to finish the quest. If he is dead, the quest ends when discovering Yosuke's body.

Rewards

 * 1000 XP
 * Tesla's Revenge - can be looted off Pavus' body.
 * Weed Whacker - embedded in a spore carrier near Yosuke's corpse.

Bugs
