Every time I start a game I can get quest fine until I get a quest that has the faction=null with the error:
Exception running QuestNode_GetNearbySettlement: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Every quest after this always has a null faction and is uncompleteable. I have removed all mods, restarted multiple times, and even reinstalled the game after deleting all files.

Steps:
-start any new game
-Devmode(or wait)trade quests until error occurs
Just wanted to update, I tried starting new colonies in both 1.2 and 1.1 and every time I would get a bugged trade quest. I also tried this on a completely different computer with a fresh install and got this bug.
I loaded a save that happened before I got the quest in the original game and it fixed the problem, but if you are playing on no reload mode this is really bad.
I will add this to a bug report I already have, I see this was caused by using dev tools. Be aware dev tools are not garunteed to be stable or bug free, they are a 'use at your own risk' tool.
