I recently started a new pilot and played through the Captains of Freeport missions. Then I got my UE legal rating back up to clean and started the UE missions (killing dreadnaughts with phase-only weaponry is fun....not really) but ran into a problem. During the Free Huron missions, there is one mission (id #191 i think) called "Capture Renegade Leader." This mission involves boarding a renegade turncoat in the Yelts system.
The problem is that, after the Freeport missions, the Yelts system is actually a different s˙st resource than the original, and as such the target ship never shows up. I quickly made a hack plugin that changes the mission's shipsyst value, but it will make the mission not work unless you have done the Freeport missions.
Now to the question: Has anyone else run into this problem, and what did they do about it? I think that the whole mission needs to be changed, but I don't really know what to build it to in order for it to work.
Actually, in theory I could use some other bits to set up an alternate version of the mission that only triggers after the Freeport string, but it seems rather complex.

All you really need to do is change the mission to point to a different system, one that doesn't change after any missions (this counts out Yelts and Pariah). Try one of the uninhabited ones - I would recommend Troub.

Riomore system is the only human renegade system to my knowledge that doesn't have a changing visbit

Well, I was able to do the Free Huron Missions and the Captain Freeport through the end. When you get Attack Histri Station, don't do that. Go and rescue the scoutship crew, then see the Free Huron Missions through and then finish the Captain of Freeport Missions.
