1-3 hour mission time limit

[procdrone]

How.... just how are you supposed to complete such a mission. Traveling from station to station takes so much longer, not to mention any possible jumps on the way!

Its really impossible.... or am I missing something?

I've run into this problem as well. Fairly sure it's an impossible time limit. The higher tier ships are not that much faster than the starter ship.

corvette speed is 1.3, while the starter ship speed is 1.2. Its impossible to reach your mission objective with that time with any ship.

I will not accept less then 6 hours for in sector trips. Every additional Sector is 12 hours or I don't accept. IF I haven't been to the sector before I won't do less than 24.

I have left base without getting the cargo (luckliy it was in system and 12 hours, was a 3 hour trip each way) I only used 9 of the hours.

I tried jumping to a different sector and back into the destination quadrant, but I did not make it in time for a 2 hour contract. I do not think those contracts are possible unless maybe the destination station is right next to the origin.

I wouldn't mind having an impossible contract mixed in if we had the tools to estimate travel time available when docked at a station and if the punishment for failure was less harsh.

Yeah i have seen these as well and do not take them , i think they need a bit of tweeking and balancing unless there is some super fast ship you can purchase later in the game .

Thank your for your feedback. I'll forward it to the devs so they can look into it and see what's wrong with these contracts.

Sorry for necro..
This is still an issue.
Have anyone found a working way for those pesky missions timers?
