Title: Steal research file: mission impossible Post by: animale on January 24, 2012, 06:27:44 PM Today I opened 3 or 4 faction "Steal research file" missions and I was really confused. There is something wrong with that kind of missions. I'll explain myself with some numbers. Let's start with...
Time bonus: This mission is time critical, and we will issue a 20% bonus if the mission is completed in 761h 57m 22s Since we are on the clock, we will be very disappointed if you don't complete this mission in 356h 30m 56s time bonus < max time before you loose standing ????? anyway the file to download is a Robber Baron Anti-Virus v 3.2 of 960.00 Gb, the servers maximum bandwidth is 352 kbs. It means that it will take 756h 40m 32s to download it at full speed, so I will EVER loose standing. But the oddest thing is the running process: Network disconnect command [localhost], 356h 24m 35s what the hell does it means? there is NO WAY to delete that file, because the server will go down before I finish the download in any case!!!! Question: how am I supposed to accomplish this mission type??? is it still work in progress??? :21: Title: Re: Steal research file: mission impossible Post by: asdfth12 on January 24, 2012, 10:31:51 PM I don't think that Emi has added in penalty's for failing faction missions yet, but still... Impossiable mission.
Nothing bad will happen, the mission will delete itself while your trying to complete it. I have a number of them marked just so they don't keep showing up in the faction boards.

Title: Re: Steal research file: mission impossible Post by: asdfth12 on January 25, 2012, 04:17:40 PM Not really, they are all doable. It's just a small percentage of the SRF's that can't be done if to much time has passed.

Network disconnect command [localhost], 356h 24m 35s Since we are on the clock, we will be very disappointed if you don't complete this mission in 356h 30m 56s Time bonus: This mission is time critical, and we will issue a 20% bonus if the mission is completed in 761h 57m 22s It means that it will take 756h 40m 32s t the reason its impossible is because you accepted it too late. when it was posted it was time bonus > max time Title: Re: Steal research file: mission impossible Post by: animale on January 27, 2012, 03:13:16 PM So this kind of mission start independently from when you accept them...

Title: Re: Steal research file: mission impossible Post by: norill on March 06, 2012, 11:38:13 AM in theory yes. in practise y bother?
