Starlight Drive-In Completely Reset After Leaving

[shar181]

So here's a problem I've never seen before, and I couldn't find anything with google.

 

I just started a new game after installing AAF and a bunch of lewd mods. I avoided talking to Preston, and instead headed straight to that diner to kill the two chem dealers, and then moved on to claim the Starlight Drive-In. Starlight is one of my favorite settlement locations, so I always take my time building it up. This time was no different; set up a small farm, water purifier, a couple of buildings for my settlers to live in. Afterwards, I looped back to the museum to save Preston. Everything seemed perfectly normal at this point. Got through the deathclaw fight, and decided to go sell the minigun/ammo before I joined them in Sanctuary. Then I went back to Starlight, and found that all of the things I built were gone.

 

It's the weirdest thing. When I first claimed it, I went around scrapping everything I possibly could. I even used "disable" to remove the skeletons that are normally strewn around the lot. When I got back, roughly half of the debris had returned; a bunch of the wrecked cars, some of the lampposts and speakers. Not everything was back; just some of it.

 

After that, I decided to reload to the last save I had before entering the museum. It was when I was standing in a little shack occupied by a radroach. I immediately ran back to Starlight, and everything was gone. Exited the game, reloaded the same save, and checked again. So I reloaded a save from when I was still inside Starlight. Thankfully, nothing had vanished on that save; I'm going to repeat everything I did the first time around, and see if it happens again. In the meantime, I'm hoping that someone has some insight into what could have caused this kind of bug!

Update: I redid all of the progress I'd lost by reloading. This time around, nothing in the settlement disappeared on me. I'm sort of relieved, but also worried that this might happen again. If anyone knows what caused this, I'd still very much like to know!
