Stacking missions Logic

[Mr T]

Not suggesting this is the case for OP but I noticed in @metatheurgist 's screenshot one of the missions is to kill deserters. These will be in a different USS and in the past these types of missions have been bugged (don't know if they still are). Just something to be mindful of when taking missions.

Those screenshots don't demonstrate it's order taken though either.

Massacres (unless they're wing) have a 24 hour timer. It's impossible for you to have taken the mission which is getting kills attributed (the 18 hour mission) before the one with only 7 hours left and no kills attributed, since from that shot, they're both normal (non-wing) missions.

So, that kinda proves it's messed up.

No, I can't prove the order from the screenshots. I have no reason to lie about it and it is my experience from doing massacres every week for as long as they've been giving out arx.

It does prove that the kills were not allocated to the mission with the least time as claimed.

I'll be doing it again next Thursday, so if I remember I'll take more screen shots.

That's right, I accidentally took a deserter mission, even tho I know to watch out for those. Which didn't get any kills as a result. Which was why I asked for pics in my first post. Everyone makes mistakes.

Yep, I'm sure I've done it by mistake before too and had to abandon them.

Agreed, I thought he was trying to prove my point?
The pics aren't really showing anything, did they both have 24 hour timers?

Hey, I'm not claiming you're lying and I believe that you think it's FIFO... My experience is different though, so trying to get some clarification from FDEV.
I didn't take a deserter mission or make a mistake, I had been doing literally 4 billion worth of missions over the last couple weeks, all sitting in res sites... So I had it down to a science... I picked 1 or 2 deserter missions and abandoned them immediately to make room, so was hyper aware of that--generally I got all the missions done and turned them in, but then noticed 1 mission wasn't getting touched even though i had been turning in longer ones.
