i'm in a pickle. I'm playing the journey to Batuu DLC and sided with the First Order, in one of the Missions I need to recruit sims for the First Order. The only problem is that they need to be a human sim that is unaffiliated with the Resistance, Scoundrels, or First Order in order for me to ask them to join, I cant find a single human sim that isn't already with the first order. I've tried using cheats to turn sims human, but when I go to click on the option to recruit them it still says "only humans are welcome in the First Order". Is there a solution to this problem or am I better off abandoning the mission?

When you hover over a person it should say Batuu citizen.You will find them in the first order settlement or the Black Spire Outpost.

It took me a long time to find 3 humans to recruit for this mission and I couldn't find ANY in the First Order area to recruit. The only place I found humans eligible to recruit was at Oga's Cantina and I would only see a new human appear there every 3-4 days. The few I recruited were: a bartender, a scientist for another mission, a random patron.
After I was done playing in Batuu and went back to my normal life though, I noticed that I could use the 'recruit to join first order' option on sims in my neighborhood. I was already done recruiting when I noticed this, so I'm not sure if it gives progress towards the goal, but may be worth a shot.
Hope you get them soon!

I ended up just inviting sims from my neighborhood to join me on vacation that fixed the problem for me

You need to be rank 2 to recruit.

I am having the same problem. I have figured out that I can't recruit anyone while I have a mission active so I got two recruits so far. But I can't find any more neutral humans to recruit. All the battu citizens I am coming across are ineligible due to not being human.
