The title pretty much says it all >.<

I forgot I had the slaves in my cargo, and I was running low on fuel, so I dropped by a CW militia fortress and they freed the slaves, but then I couldn't complete the hauri mission since I had no slaves >.<

It might not be a bug, but it is extremely inconvenient :P
Why can't the hauri accept that their comrades are free, even if they have to hitch a ride on an independant freighter's ship over or something? :P

Greetings Wolfy; perhaps one could create an item (i.e. Sung Cryo-pods) which would be slave coffins for use with Huari missions. Add some script which would allow it to work with the Huari, yet not be subject to Commonwealth confinscation. Then both objectives (refueling and completion of mission) could be satisfactorily achieved. :twisted:

There is a work-around; although you won't be able to do Huari missions for that base anymore, you can still perform them for other Huari bases. There's usually a few of them in the game.

Just bumpity-bumping this thread because it seems like an easy fix, and its still present, and still annoying. Having some "hauri slave" items would be good. Actually, I'd prefer getting rid of automatic hand-overs in the first place. If you want to turn in slaves, there should be a specific option to do that.
