Of Swords and Dumplings

SecondaryNovigrad
During this quest Geralt had to haggle like a fishwife, mix with mafiosos, draw with chalk in the dark and dive into a portside brawl. Most of all, he had to teach a lesson to the man who had squeezed Hattori out of sword making. All this so that Hattori would give up that infernal dumpling scrunching and return to forging blades. From then on our hero could make use of his services, and I sure hope he did so often, for otherwise all that effort was for naught.

Fixing a softlock

Enable the debug console, then look for a fact under Gates the quest checks — one the quest is actively waiting on. If that flag never got written, addfact it to the value shown and the gate clears.

Setting a Set these to advance fact only marks a step done — it won't run the step or skip the quest forward, and it can't fix a softlock caused by a scene that never played or an NPC that didn't spawn (reload an earlier save for those). Save before forcing any fact.
