The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition (Xbox Series X) Friendship's Due quest bug

[Jack Rowell]

I'm playing The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition on Xbox Series X and I've run into a bug with Felix's companion quest, Friendship's Due. When I start the quest, having talked to Felix, the character Rufus Trask dies before I can even meet him. This means that when I go to talk to Clyde Harlow, the Questacts as if I chose to kill Trask. I tried visiting North Gulch both before and after speaking to Harlow for the first time,, avoiding even visiting his landing pad, and he was still dead. I tried going to the site before even attaining the quest and clearing out the canids there just in case they were killing him, but that did not work either. This is a pretty significant issue and should be worked on, especially because I never experienced the issue in the first release of Outer Worlds.

I can literally see him in edge water he is saying "I don't want any trouble" what the hell This will ruin my whole Perfect run since I am doing this in the very last part of the game. I have Spacers choice edition.

Two options for this glitch:

1. First go to Trask he's near the Deserters in edge water and he will say "I don't want a Trouble" don't interact with him ,

Then steal the RING from behind him.

Then in Harlow the dialogue will be : " I found your Man already, Is this the ring you wanted? ".

2. Second option Just the normal glitched Dialogue with Harlow if you don't do anything:

" I'm pretty sure I killed a guy by that name, Didn't get his ring, though. "

Either way we can't meet his wife or do the intended quest.

Kindly anyone fix this Big oversight.

Just for Confirmation: My trask doesn't Die but the Dialogue is Only that I killed him which I didn't.
