Missions: Difference between revisions

Line 56:

To acquire missions from a research agent, you must first "hire" the agent and initiate the research process. You do this by clicking on the "Start Research" button that appears on the agent's conversation window. If you try to get a mission before you have started working with the agent, he or she will tell you that they have nothing for you at this time.

When you press the "Start Research" button, a window will pop up to ask you what kind of research you want to do. There will be two or more choices of which you must (and can only) choose one. The choices available will depend on the agent's science specialty fields. To be able to choose a field you must have trained ~~for~~ this kind of science to a level at least equal to the level of the agent. (''This page contains a list of EVE [[Research Agents|research agents]], their fields, levels and locations.'')

Once you have chosen a field, the agent will tell you how happy he or she is to be working with you. From this point on, until you terminate research with this agent, the agent will ~~begin to~~ add Research Points to your account. These points will accrue ~~daily,~~ whether you are logged on or not.

At some point after you start the research, usually within a few days, you will receive an email communication from the agent. He or she will be in need of some service that you will be asked to provide. Currently, this is either a short courier run to another station, or the delivery to the agent of a small amount of the mineral titanium (which you are expected to either mine or buy). Completion of a mission will add one day's worth of Research Points to your account (in addition to the usual deposit).
