For setting up a missioning preset, you can load the | For setting up a missioning preset, you can load the '''Default > General''' preset, then run some missions. Remove things you don’t really need to see as you go - you can do this by right clicking on the item in the overview, then selecting '''Remove *item* from overview'''. Eventually you will have a preset that will suit your needs. Below are some suggestions on how to configure the mission preset. | ||
Check '''Celestial > Large Collidable Object''' and '''Entity > Large Collidable Structure'''. Mission objectives will often show up as one of these. | |||
Right click the '''Charge''' folder and select all. This will help you see probes on d-scan. | Right click the '''Charge''' folder and select all. This will help you see probes on d-scan. | ||

Having wrecks on overview can clutter it up, and make it more difficult to see pilots warping in to your mission area such as ninja salvagers or ninja looters. You can also remove '''Cargo Container''' if you like, although there don't tend to be many of these cluttering the overview during missions, and the mission completion items are picked up from cans so it can be handy to see them without switching tabs. Check '''Sun''' if you want an easily identifiable celestial to align to. This can be handy if you are not sure you can fully tank the rats; just align to the sun, and if your tank is in danger of breaking, call back your drones and warp to the sun. Make sure there are no collidable objects on the align path. | ||
Open the '''Drone''' folder and check '''Combat Drone'''. This will let you see your own drones on the overview, which helps many pilots to remember to pull them into the drone bay after a mission instead of leaving them behind. If you mission in fleets you may want to uncheck combat drones. | Open the '''Drone''' folder and check '''Combat Drone'''.

Once you’re done creating a missions preset, save it as '''3 - Missions'''. If you never run missions, you obviously don’t need this preset. If you don’t run missions, but like to go mining, you could create one called '''3 - Mining''' with just asteroids, belt rats, player ships and anything else you need. It’s up to you. | Once you’re done creating a missions preset, save it as '''3 - Missions'''. If you never run missions, you obviously don’t need this preset.
