      This is a simple question, but it's been so long since I've made missions that I've just forgotten 😭. Anyway, I'm trying to get two missions to be offered simultaneously from the spaceport (you know, upon landing), one of which is invisible. Is it possible to make it so you don't get a brief text using Mission Computer, or do I have to use a different program to get rid of that? I have other questions, but I seem to have forgotten them for now, so I'll leave it at that.

      You could use the Sxxx operator in the "On Accept" and/or the "On Refuse". I think that would be the easy way.
      Since I haven't used MC, I don't know anything about its quirks/flaws, but you probably will be able to open up the file with ResEdit and Nova Tools to fix it.

      I was testing his mission, and he wanted the mission to be offered on Spica instead of Earth, and the first mission was repeating mission forever that gave excessive money for 10 cargo drones to be destroyed. Matrix also need to know how to make the first mission used ONCE, so that the 2nd mission can be availiable immediately.

      Well, I think that might have been a problem with mission computer, and not with Nova, as I originally had set my missions to originate from the Shipyard at Earth, and then I wanted to change it to the "Spaceport" at Spica, but Mission Computer never changed the value. The reason why the mission gave excessive money was because I input a random number for the reward, and it just happened that the reward had 8 digits. The mission would repeat because I didn't bother to set any bits that would prevent it from repeating, and it was to destroy 5 cargo drones ;).

      I do need to know how to make the second mission be available immediately after the first mission is available, and not offering the first mission, and then having to take off and land to get the second mission. In mission computer, it doesn't seem as if you can omit the desc to accept an invisible mission, but it would seem to me that you should be able to. Is it possible?
