Hi.

Today I was in the middle of an exploration mission, and after I went to the objective site I was contacted by a character giving me further instructions. After this I logged off, and when I later came back on I tried looking for what the character had told me before, but I couldn't find it anywhere. So I want to know if there's a place where I can see all the mission related transmissions received. Luckily, I remember what the objective was, but I figured some day I may not be so lucky.

Thank you in advance.

The only thing that I can think of is drop the mission and pick it up again, however I'm not sure if that could cause issues with a career agent mission. It would require you to do the mission all over again from the beginning.

Do you remember which mission it was? The exploration career missions are fairly straight forward for more experienced players, and we can probably supply you with any information you have missed.

The game's documentation is really, really bad. Like, trying to do maintenance on a machine manufactured in East Germany in the 1970s by a company that no longer exists levels of bad.

So when in doubt, you can generally just assume that CCP hasn't done anything obvious like giving you a log to read through previous parts of the intro mission chains, just immediately default to looking for a player having done their job for them. Find the name of the mission in your mission offers thing and just copy/paste it into google or eve-survival etc, usually someone will have databased the mission text somewhere.

A few missions give some input via pop-up boxes, a few others write that green text in local. (Behind the scenes, approaching a dev with *rework missions* has apparently the same effect as throwing garlic at a vampire)

Summaries for about any regular mission can be seen on eve-survival, in case you really get lost.

There are several ways to get a review of your current active missions.

1) Dock and talk to the agent. That agent will show up in the agent list even if you are in the wrong station, provided you have an active mission with the agent.

2) Go to your journal (in the neocom, the icon looks like a book), look at the agents tab, and under it, the missions tab.

3) At the top left of the screen, you should see the words "Agent missions" and a list of your missions under it. Click on the mission of interest. If you do not see that list, look a bit higher for several small, light grey icons. One looks like a silhouette of the shoulders and head of a person. Click that.
