    Gotta agree here, i dont care if its just a generic KIA or something on a combat mission. Your sending them on MISSIONS there should be a BRIEFING of said mission. Without it, its just kinda point and click and hope for the best. Most of these changes seem to aim for, log in for 5mins a day, log out, check back tomorrow.


    Log in, refine ore, set duty missions, log out.

    More reasons to log in, good, but for a min not so good.

    What you are asking for is a performance report/summary for each of the Doffs sent on a mission. Something that will give feedback on the Doff's traits that either benefited or hindered the mission.

    For Example

    (Doff Name)'s telepathic ability led to success in negotiations (This is a positive trait example)


    (Doff Name)'s stubberness nearly caused a breakdown in negotiations (This is a negative trait example)


    (Doff Name)'s intelligence identified an assassin; he/she protected the Ambassador and suffered a moderate wound. (Doff Name) will be on bed rest for 72 hours. (This is a event outcome example)

    The game could have generic statements fitting the Doff missions that have positive/negative trait terms and an outcome statement with canned responses depending on whether the Doff was injured or not.

    I see a very minimal description of how exactly it was a Success or not in the top right ish of the completed assignment window on that assignment. Usually a one-liner saying they delivered a speech with reasonable competence or something depending on the assignment.

    Considering the amount of assignments, and range of completion levels, they'd have to lock someone in a room all weekend to write all of them out.

    Any volunteers?

    A more detailed report could be implemented, but it would just be "eye-candy", imo...
    Dev time is limited and I'd rather see more actual mission content, although I am really liking the Doffs. :cool:

    My main problem so far is duplicates... For instance, I have two identical 'Biochemists', they have the same name, traits etc.... which in itself is not suprising, as the "random name" generator has only a finite number to choose from.... However....

    I had an assignment that required two 'Biochemists'... So I slotted the first one in... but was unable to use the other one because the tab (<) "greyed" out... Obviously the system refused to accept that the second one was "another" Doff... This may just be a bug... A ticket has been submitted.....

    I have several other duplicates as well... so I'm hoping this is just a glitch... only time will tell .... :rolleyes:

    Most of my duplicates (although they may have different specializations) were awarded to me at the same time via cadre/other means. I wonder if thats the source of the issue.

    I would like to have a Duty Officer log which showed in it when a Doff was killed, it is very hard to figure out some times who got killed when you got many Doffs.
