FYI, there's a new Xang Xi mission that's specific to experienced miners in good standing. Testing feedback appreciated.

I tried the new mission. I like the context, a hunt for gathering things.

1. The mission only counted down Silicate ore that I brought in, except for the last load. All other items were removed from cargo hold, but no indication on the mission log on how much of any other I needed to get or what was recieved.
- First I mined the Ferric, like the mission told me to. Then randomly picked out of the list to gather
Lanthanic, Silicate, Apicene and Xithricite together, and Heliocene and XiRite Alloy together. Everything was removed from the cargo hold of my ship except what was over the ammount needed.

2. I believe I finished getting all the items, but the mission didn't end. I aborted.

Suggestion: Experienced players can complete the mission within an hour. 2 hours time limit would pretty relaxed. But the current 6 hour time limit is really long. Also, a way to access the status would be cool.

Cool mission.

I was thinking I may need to restructure it into separate stages for every delivery type. The objectives should all be triggered on complete delivery, but the "Great shipment, please deliver us [nleft] more" may only happen on the first delivery type. Dunno, have to ask Andy. Anyway, staging it by item might be smarter anyhow, to make it clearer to the player.

ok, i was able to complete the mission.

What I missed was a second batch 100cu of Ferric after the second portion of the mission starts. "Great shipment, please deliver us [nleft] more" is reported for all items in second portion of the mission, but not for the first 100cu of Ferric.
