Duty Officer Assignments: Sorting

captainzhei

My duty officer UI sorts my in-progress assignments by department. I would prefer them sorted by pending time. Can an option be added for this?

Yeah, this also affects the assignment log and completed assignments. Horrible change to the UI.

Agreed. Previously I could look at my active assignments and quickly see when a reasonable number would finish. Makes it much easier to plan when to log back in.

Log in? Heck, I used to check out the times to plan out my current play time. Like if one was going to finish relatively soon and a nice DOff mission was offered in the current map then I would stick around, otherwise I would just patrol different sectors. Completion times would sometimes determine whether or not I would join a public queue and which queue I would enter. And it was nice to easily find how many 'short' assignments I had started to determine whether or not I wanted to start a longer one. The current dis-arrangement makes all that much harder to do. It's nigh impossible to keep track of 20+ times in my head at one time.

And I've mentioned this in another thread about the random order that completed assignments come in after you log on - clicking the accept button on a mission that suddenly changes position. Arghh. Sometimes I want to defer the rewards 'til later. And what's the point of showing the rewards in the completion section when you don't even get a chance to see them because you clicked the accept button just as it first appears? (And don't get me started about trying to find that fleeting reward in the assignment log section!)

lucho80 hit it on the nose - horrible, dreadful, nasty, evil, demonic change.
