      Evo have been testing those in those contract boards among other things on Nyx I in the recent Tech Preview builds. Those boards were interesting with multiple boards at each guild hall supplying missions from different guilds/factions. The one I was most excited about were the science guild missions, but sadly when they finally became available the initial/intro science guild mission appeared to be nothing more than a basic resource gathering mission.

        Local science… could imagine missions where you would use a ship or vehicle and scan a nearby area (e.g. taking measurement readings) or picking some harvestables or an ore sample. Would love to see some use for the Reliant Sen, but that’s far out in the future I guess :/

      Yeah, it’s pretty nice. We’ll finally get missions that are local to an area. This could give ground vehicles another reason to be useful.
