what is the fastest way to refresh the mission board?

[Eldritch]

is there any faster way to get new missions without logging out and in?( that has to put a huge load on frontier's login servers besides )

Sometimes going into the outfitting screen refreshes the board

solo > open > various pvt groups > solo > open, etc.

the mission boards, automatically refresh every 10 minutes - and you can force a hard reset of the mission board, by going into outfitting then going back to the board - but there are notable exceptions to forcing a reset like this - that even board flipping won't solve.

If another CMDR is in the instance - (say open or the same private) and you are board flipping or hard resetting the board - the board will actually hold the same missions till he/ she either leaves, takes one, or you go to solo then reset the boad manually by uncoupling, then redocking.

But, the solution to flip a board, without re-instancing is thusly -
1: state? is the state away from the BGS tick every day at GMT 5 PM server time? if it's more than 2 hours in any direction, swap to outfitting and back every 10 minutes to check board refresh.

2: is the state about to turn? log to main - then back into the same instance you were in - BGS will have updated, follow above formula to reset the entire board every 10 minutes.

3: unfavorable BGS state? time to work your BGS if you want better board spanws - that and the rank that conincides with the mission you need to pick up
Superpower rank also plays a part too.

If the board is NOT spawning you any missions, or the missions that spawn are not what you want, there is usually a reason - a BGS reason - depending on your area of space - contact your local control Moff from PP you are in - and talk to them to see what the BGS goal is for system - you will find better contracts for missions that way, as the BGS dudes/ dudettes, usually know whats what.

Good luck CMDR

I find that switching between Solo/Private works, though I don't use it often. (Navy Missions are a good exception though.)

I seem to recall a dev comment saying that its between 5 and 60 minutes. Its not on a set timer or something.
