After choosing to work with Erik and raiding the goblin cave, the game doesn't acknowledge it when I kill all of the goblins. I've tried both bombing the cave and picking them all off one by one, but the popup that says "I've killed all of the goblins in the cave" or something along those lines never appears and Erik doesn't acknowledge that I've killed them when I go outside and talk to him. Could someone please provide the quest ID and stage number so I can use setstage in the console to advance to the next part?

(I've tried sneaking around to see where the goblin might be - my skill should rise when it's nearby - and using TCL to check if it spawned outside the cave, but neither strategy has turned up anything. I do feel like there were more goblins in the room next to where you put the explosives the last time I played. This is my second playthrough of this quest; my first character was getting too easy, so I decided to restart. I don't know if that's related.)

Edit: AHA! Never mind, I just figured out how to get the Construction Set to work in Nehrim. I promise I'll stop asking stupid questions sometime soon.

Just in case someone else experiences the same problem and searches the web for the answer, the quest ID is NQ01Tirin and the stage is 60.

Yes, but can you also upload your save? I want to find out what the problem is.

Sorry, it's too late; I alternate between 5 saves when not using quicksave, so I've already overwritten that one.

If I start another playthrough and encounter the problem again, though, I'll post an upload. Or if you think it wouldn't create any confounding variables, I could start a new game, teleport out of the mine directly to Tirin Abbey (and update any related quest states as needed), and see if the problem occurs again.

Don't waste your time on this - this bug seems too random to be reproduced that easily. That's why I asked you for the save in the first place.
