== Your first mission == For the rest of this guide we will look at some of the details of making a mission. Since it's pointless to discuss the UI of the Foundry without a framework of reference, I will embed a tutorial to create a simple mission like those you may encounter in different patrols. So when I discuss several aspects of the Foundry, I will discuss, how certain aspects of this sample mission can be realized. === Plan ahead === It is important you have a clear idea planned out of what you want to do. The Foundry is a forceful tool. If you stumble through the mission making process without a goal, the Foundry will drown you in detail work and you will come up with patchwork. There will be enough room for creativity after the skeleton of the mission is completed. <div class="tutorialbox"> <big>'''Tutorial'''</big> The tutorial project is available in game. Search for "STOWiki Guide". Here is our plan for the tutorial: An ESD contact will send us to deliver some cargo to Kei, where we run into some Orions. Before we can deliver our cargo, we will help the miners defend their colony. The objectives should look as follows: {{Notebox|It's helpful to sketch your mission by laying out missions objectives the way they display in-game. Top-level objectives should be map changes.}} * Go to [[Earth Spacedock]] ** Talk to Market Speculator ** Interact with Console on ESD to Take up Cargo * Go to the [[Kei System]] ** Fight [[Orion]] Raiders ** Repair Damaged Satellite * Beam Down to Colony in Distress ** Talk to Miner ** Fight Orions ** Disable Spatial Charges ** Deliver Cargo {{Notebox|On social maps you may not place any additional NPCs, reach markers, objects etc., but are restricted to use objects that are flagged by the developers for UGC use.}} So our mission will require us to create maps for the Kei System (space) and Colony (ground, interior). ESD is a social map, so we will simply reuse it. We also need costumes for the ESD contact, Orion captain and Kei colony miner contact. We will create the miner from scratch and reuse pre-made costumes for the ESD and Orion contacts.</div>
