Mission Details
background - joined a nation started ranking up - political control changed, needed to leave fast

I had just activated mission for rank of marquess

tried to cancel the mission, got a message - this mission is time dependent cannot cancel for x day and x hours

decided to try to get out by going pirate.
I attacked a welsh npc until my hostility raised and I was declared a pirate.

tried to cancel the mission and got the same message - this mission is time dependent cannot cancel for x day and x hours

because i reset as pirate my progress reset but not the mission.
So I have completed all objectives but cannot complete the mission

at this point i tried to cancel the mission again - once again i got the message
this mission is time dependent cannot cancel for x day and x hours

I am stuck as a pirate and cannot join a nation.



I feel there should be some way to get out of the mission.
hopefully I will be able to exit once the time elapses.

Just because you get kicked from the nation doesn't mean that you should keep your national loyalty points to complete a mission.. there is a buffer period for a reason. You are a pirate, 0 loyalty to any nation.

If i have 0 loyalty I should be able to separate from the Nation completely and move on.

there is a buffer period for a reason

You can't nation-hop at any whim. I am a new citizen in England, and I start my captain mission. I then attack Black Sparrow a lot, but hire someone to cast hired diplomat cards on me. Once my hostility is low enough, I switch instantly to Tokelau so the retaliation is much less and he has to worry about hostility.

However, in the current system, it'd go like this. I am a new citizen in England, and I start my captain mission. I then attack Black Sparrow a lot, but hire someone to cast hired diplomat cards on me. I have to wait to cancel my newly-started captain mission, so I cannot abuse the hostility system whenever it is convenient.

I see your point. The function does exactly what it should based on your reasoning.
