For the mission runners

When looking at the agent journal when doing missions, would it be possible to put an extra column in, or change the STATUS column to say "COMPLETED" when a mission is flagged as completed instead of having to go into the mission itself, scroll down in the always fixed-sized window to verify completion? I note that when the mission objective window is opened and on screen, the text updates to show that the mission objective is completed, so I don't think it'd be hard to change status from ACCEPTED to COMPLETED.

Edit: Oh, it also seems that when you accept the mission with the journal open, that journal window gets updated from "OFFERED" to "ACCEPTED".

I sometimes have the missions detail window thing minimised. Because when you complete the mission it flashes.

So does the button on the neocom

I know the neocom icon does flash, and I know that the window sometimes appears in front of you while you've got the window open or minimized. I personally would prefer just taking that journal window (Since I typically only do one mission at a time) drag it to the lower right corner so I can see if the mission is done or not. I don't open the neocom window after I accept the mission, or during the mission as that just means I have to close it again, or, don't pay attention/miss the flashing since it flashes like 3 times then goes back to being solid.

Better even is to position it at the top of your screen then double click the title bar so it collapses. Then when you complete the mission it will re-expand. Works a treat, try it out.

If anyone ever looks at you and says,_ "Hold my beer, watch this,"_  you're probably going to want to pay attention.

Actually, that's a good idea, especially if you have a few missions listed in the journal.

Journal should show 'Offered', 'Accepted' or 'Completed' on mission status.

Seems CCP dropped the ball on that too.

I wouldn't say "dropped the ball"... more like spasmatically juggling trying to catch the ball while they go fix this issue. {smirk}
