#~~Right click option on mission to autopilot to the issuing base~~ Find mission galaxy button

Just like the title says. It would be great if in our personal mission log, one of the right click options on a mission we had other than Deactivate and Abort was something like Autopilot, which would either set your course for the base you got the mission from or the galaxy if it's a base that's hidden.

Should it also kill ai for you or just deposit all the gear and credits as soon as you fly by the ai base with out having to accept the mission in the first place

We probably would just galaxy link in the mission (much like chat). Directly to base is a bit too automated for my taste

#

Currently waiting on code to implement it into windows

#

You can currently autopilot to any base, Jecht

#

/ap "Octopus Games" :152416823, for example

#

If you know it ahead of time

#

If you don't you cant

foggy vine
#

How would you not know the base if you docked at it to get the mission in the first place?

robust pumice
#

Cause not all missions end where they start

foggy vine
#

Ah, you mean goto missions.

I'm purely advocating for return to mission giver base, not any objective.

#

It should not chart your course to an objective.

robust pumice
#

Why would you return to the start point?

foggy vine
#

As an example, trade missions

#

also "go out and hunt stuff and come back"

#

missions like that

robust pumice
#

Yeah that's way too automated. Directly to the gal is enough. YOu can click stuff on a map and play the game

#

Else you're basically playing farmville

Honestly the issue that brought this up for me is that it's really hard to find the galaxy on the large map, and the mission itself doesn't even tell you what galaxy it's in, so I can't do it manually without taking notes :V

robust pumice
#

Well there's the problem to solve.

foggy vine
#

Right click to the galaxy, even just locating it on the map, is fine

robust pumice
#

also - it should state it

foggy vine
#

ahhh

robust pumice
#

its the last line of every mission

foggy vine
#

okay, that's better.

I'd still like a "locate on map" button though 😛

robust pumice
#

I agree there.

foggy vine
#

honestly the button could just call /search name of gal and it'd work

#

save some typing

robust pumice
#

More or less why I said we want to use the @[Sol] gal linking from chat and just have it be the mission text itself but a button might be doable too

#

I've added a client task to backlog to explore this.

foggy vine
#

if it's the first line of the mission text that's fine

Thanks Jecht o7
