    To earn this achievement, you must complete 4 sidequests (blue !)
    They are
    - Brewery Upgrade (Base 1)
    - Hepcat Upgrade (Base 2?)
    - Boat Upgrade (Base 3?)
    - Theater Upgrade (Base 4)

    These optional quests are available from their respective bases and entail collecting 5 of some item.
    Since you need to have the bases unlocked to get the missions, you need to progress in the story.
    According to PhillyCh3zSt3ak, the 4th one becomes available after the quest "Getting the Band Back Together".
    Most if not all are started by examining some pile of item in the base, which will cue Floyd to tell you to collect more of them.

    Edit: Hepcat Upgrade has been known to bug out and I haven't found a clear fix online.

    Pedrito9504Same problem with Dylan XBA here. Have tried almost any method I can think of. Just wanna ask did you solve this problem eventually?

    OPTiMYSTiC 7Same problem Here Dylan XBA
    I have collected all 4 spare parts from refrigerators in the Hepcat Upgrade mission and every time I do this it just gets stuck at "Spare Parts: 4/4" and the mission never advances to "Upgrade the Vat".

    Elite1111111111The only people I can find saying they got it to work just kept trying it. I'll keep looking.

    KreuvaitteThere is no way to go through the "Hepcat Upgrade". Nothing happens after collecting 4 parts... retried 10 times.

    Elite1111111111A lot of people seem to have issues with that one and there's no clear fix.

    Elite1111111111Some people have said abandoning and then restarting the quest from the menu have worked, as well as doing a hard reset, but that's probably just more coincidence then anything as many have said it hasn't worked.

    AisakratosI had the same issue with the "Hepcat Upgrade" mission: I couldn't deliver the mission after collecting the 4 parts.

    I tried that mission about 10-12 times in different moments at the game and finally I could complete it when I had done:

    - All main missions.
    - Collected all the collectibles.
    - All secondary missions except that one.

    I don't know if that is related, but I thought that this would be valious information for those who have that mission bugged ;)
