OoM crappy missions - Exioce

Now that we are out of lock down. Why does OoM, Exioce, Miller Terminal, only offer crappy courier jobs for 22,00Ly missions @ 2.5mil?

Yet the other minor fractions offer closer missions, half the payout, only 1 jump away, and with several missions available.

Why the lack of decent missions?

Cause the BGS and the missions generation system is buggered to hell, has been since alpha, and it's a core concept problem not just a bit of "slightly poorly optimised code".

Well, it does make it hard to support OoM, other than bounty hunting.

And why with the other MF having bio-waste mission (200k @ 1 jump) always sets us up for Outbreak, if I read the BGS boards right?

Although, running meds is great money...

They tweaked the mission system in 2.4 to link then more towards the economy type. Try a different station.
I've also noticed that ship size seems to be more of a factor too. So if your in a small ship, it's worse.

Well if that's the case and I remember correctly exioce is a tourist economy so might be more passenger missions than regular.

As for my opinion, any effort spent on the bgs is the definition of wasted effort.

We are in "none" state today, which always reduces the supply of juicy missions. It'll be a lot better in a day or two
