Nexus, you'll have to get Zelot and pipboy to chime in on the Hogosha and slaves. I remember a serious discussion about this with Zelot months ago, and what you see was the result.
Simon, why weren't you on my development team 6 months ago? I'll have to spend some in depth time looking at your prior posts, but for now : the GC guard system is designed per the request of the system owner, subject to balance limitations. They got what they asked for, you'll have to take it up with them.
Cali base cannot sell cardamine, it totally disrupts the balance. I would have done it if I could (would make every Outcast base sell cardamine if I could) but the game engine gets in the way here. It'd take me a few paragraphs to explain why/how, but trust me, in this case it doesn't work. We can only create multiple sale points for a commodity under certain rigid circumstances dictated by the game engine, and Cali fails to meet them unfortunately. If there is enough Outcast demand for Cali to buy cardamine from an Outcast smuggler, then I could give it a fairly low profit price, but there's no way to make it a sale price to traders.
