Instant Action & Mission Tick Box

[StolenPen]

A very simple suggestion, I think a simple tick box next to each mission in the "Instant Action" and "Mission" pages would mean users can remember which missions they have played and can then work their way through all the missions under both "Instant Action" and "Mission" menus. Could also be included for Training Missions also.

• In contrast, this does exist for campaigns which show a status of "Win", "Inactive" or "Defeat".
• Then each mission in each campaign also has a status of "Failed", "Success", and "Draw".
• Clearly something as complex isn't needed for Instant Action, Missions & Training, but something very simple would likely be useful.

The purpose being users do not need to memorize or separately track which missions they have and haven't tried, and it gives a good incentive to work through them all.

• They could then be unticked again if the user wishes to replay any mission. So it's really just a simple tick box which the game remembers the status of.
• At least for myself I think I would get me to work my way through them all for all my modules and something so simple would get me playing more. 

Hopefully not the most difficult thing to implement, but I know it would take some time and effort. Hopefully there is some interest in this and many thanks in advance! 

Some very low effort example images to show what I mean are attached.

+1 I’ve always had trouble remembering which missions I’ve already completed … in fact I once tried to convert the L-39 training missions into Campaign format:

 

 

but you lose the ability to jump directly into a particular mission, so I like your tick mark idea much better

OK but I propose a check mark ✓, not X.

I think they have added specific mission selection with campaigns now! But yeah a system where people have to make things into campaigns themselves for such a feature isn't ideal. This (hopefully) could be an easy solution to implement instead.

Would be fine by me! In fairness I called it a tick box then put a cross into it instead of a tick..... works either way to me anyway!

Why not a number of many times you've won, been defeated, drew a mission?

Much more difficult of a feature to implement, my hope is this is so simple they could do it fairly easily, and maybe improve in future. What you say could also be good, but I think the issue is every mission may need to set win/draw/loss conditions then, which many won't, especially for just simple cold start/free flight type missions. So a simple tick box that can be used as notplayed/played or don'twanttoplay/dowanttoplay is a nice simple feature.

That's true! But a number of many times you've flown it would be nice.
