FW Electron Beam completion bugged

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the bug

Reloading the current save after receiving the electron beam mission breaks the mission chain if you've already acquired an electron beam. "FW Southern Recon 1B" is marked as done in the save, but the next mission doesn't start.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Load the provided save file
2. Travel to Sargas and land to get the mission
3. After the initial conversation, reload the current save (or restart the game)
4. The dialog shows up, the beam is taken from the ship, but Freya's nowhere to be found

Expected Behavior

Restarting the game shouldn't result in completing missions that wouldn't complete normally. Although in this case, it would be best to make it possible to hand over the electron beam (if the player has one already) immediately after receiving the mission.

Are you at least able to take off and land to get the next mission to offer?
This sounds like a case of triggering #4108 in vanilla.

I'd prefer this rather than changing how mission completion is handled upon reloading a save.

Yes, departing and landing allows me to continue the storyline.
