Order of mission texts on the manifest screen
How do I force my mission update to the top of the list on the manifest (F5, F5) screen? (Yes, I have a good reason, not simple vanity.)

Re: Order of mission texts on the manifest screen
Name your script "A". As far as I know the entries in the save game are named after their creating scripts and ordered alphabetically (each script can only have one entry at any time).
(from my current save game; note that capital letters are ordered in front of lower case letters, thus "Random_Hits" preceeds "display-foo"; so the actual order may be simply after the ASCII codes)
Code: Select all
<key>mission_variables</key>
<dict>
<key>Random_Hits</key>
<string>Your fellow headhunters regard you as a competent Executioner.</string>
<key>display-reputation-contract</key>
<string>On the cargo contract market you have a good, but not yet top standing.</string>
<key>display-reputation-passenger</key>
<string>Still a long way to go for you in the passenger ferrying business.</string>
