Thread: Mission Update messages not recorded in Chat Box???

Is there a way to get the “Mission Update” messages to record in the chat box (spatial/combat etc..)?


While on missions, a “Mission Update” message flashes across my screen for a few seconds, If I’m distracted (as I often am, trying to survive), and I don’t read it right away it’s gone.


When that happens, I’m stuck with not knowing if the mission was successful, failed or if I’m supposed to wait or go somewhere else.

And ‘if’ there is a new mission waypoint, I have no idea what I’m supposed to do once I get there. (disable/destroy/inspect/dock), and of course if I do the wrong thing, the mission fails and I don’t know why.


As these missions are ‘time’, ‘area’ and ‘action’ sensitive, it’s very frustrating.



I will display the "Test Center" icon until SWG is bug free.

I'm at work so I'm not sure about the exact names or commands, but you'll get the idea

Make a new tab by right clicking on the spatial box and select new tab. Click on the new tab and select modify tab. A new window will come up and you can rename it Quests or something like that. On the left side of the box is a list of different types of chats you can put in the new tab. I think Quests, which is what your looking for is towards the botto. When you find Quests drag or double click it so it moves to the right side. Close the box, and thats it.

Check out the new Quest tab, I've found that the mission stuff shows up on there, although I only found it last night.
