I stopped doing GOLD mission for this reason:
Once I am mining gold and have enough, I get a MISSION CRITICAL UPDATE and I look at it and it says that now I gotta fly into a different system to deliver the gold. I can not protest this. (I guess I can cancel the mission)
To all managers that do this:
STOP IT! We made a deal and the deal was to deliver X units to X address in X system, I stacked 8 other missions up to make it profitable but if you contact me in the middle of my mining mission and tell me that it needs to go to a different system altogether, you are in the wrong.
If you want to request that I get it done sooner, that is okay, I can deal with that, if you want to offer a bonus for me to take it into another system, that is okay, I will weigh the bonus and then determine if it is your problem and not mine, but if you dare change the mission drop off point for that gold, I WILL PROMPTLY cancel the mission and you can deal with that.
FD: This is a serious breach of contract after a deal has been made. I should not be made to now risk my ship (Type 7) with no shields as I now go to another system and risk interdiction and other things as I struggle to deliver the goods. I agreed upon a destination, please stop changing it for ALL missions. In real life I will sue and I will win in court. We made a deal, now hold up your end of the bargain. Please.
Thank you for hearing my rant. I stopped doing these missions after I got one for the 4th time in 1.7 and I have not mined yet in 2.2 so let's see how the mining is now...
