As the (not very creative) name says, Missions are finally 100% complete!

Overworld Missions (Unlocks, Achievements - to be integrated to Steam, secrets, and big rewards) and Operation Missions - Primaries and Bounties (randomized missions with bonus rewards).

Needless to say, now that the system for both is wrapped up, a lot more will follow, especially Bounties. This is a very big step to get the Beginner UX to be a lot more cohesive and generally intuitive, which was one of the main current issues with the pre-alpha build. The last remaining piece for it will be the dialogues system, along with much needed tutorial-esque (lore-friendly) prompts to get you familiarized with all of the gameplay mechanics!

However, before then, a much needed gameplay feature - based on playtesters feedback - will be implemented... so stay tuned for that as well.


Changes:

• Overworld Missions
  
• Operation Primary Missions (temporarily deactivated, until certain unlockable features are in place)
  
• Operation Bounties
  
• Missions Summary
  
• Major UI fixes and improvements
  
• Operation Missions Tab (M to toggle)
  
• General QOL improvements

Changes:

• Brand new Overworld Missions System (and Missions Board)!
  
• Implemented the first few "Tutorial" Overworld Missions, to gradually introduce the player
  to the game's features and mechanics
  
• Tons of UI Improvements
  
• General fixes.
  

Dev Notes: 90% of the recent work has done into designing the actual (fairly robust may I say) Missions System, both for Overworld and per-Operations Mission. Expect them to come pretty soon as well! Both Primary and randomized/procedural Secondary Missions for bonus rewards.
