Missions

Post by Cpt »

Due to increasing information, through more and more OXPs , may I suggest adding a scrolling functionality to the F5 mission page?

Currently on F5 I have a more / back option to scroll through my equipment, I do not have this with missions and this would simply improve matters imho

At the end of the page I have "..." and I suspect I will not be the only one to continue to have too much on 'the go' to fit on just the page? Although when I sell everything I can see more of what is missing than when I have cargo this is no longer enough of a work around.

HTH

A multi-page screen is already implemented to be part of the next version.

For 1.76.1, you can get a few more rows by pressing P (pause), O (hide HUD), P (unpause) which may buy a little more time. (P, O, P again will re-show your HUD)

Cool, I will continue to offer my playtest feedback if I think it "may" provide helpful insight and optimisation of the game experience.

*Edit: Cim it shows more screen but does not alter the number of rows shown for missions in my version...

You can also temporarily sell off a few commodities just so they don't show up on the F5 mission page. Just remember to buy them back before you leave the station!

Still it would be nice to know all of what else I am 'supposed' to be doing rather than just some of it...
I think you could get 3 columns of commodities on the screen too.
I guess bus passenger service providers and contract freight movers will have it a lot worse than an OXP curious player like me...
