Hello

forgive me if there is a reason why this is not allrdy like this, but I would think that courier missions was more easy to handle if the contract invovled was 'courier contracts', instead of 'item exchange'.

Just a sujestion

I"ve never made nor accepted a courier contract ... How does it work, and why would it be better ?

when you make a courier contract you set:
+ private (like in item exchange contracts)
+ pick up place
+ dilivery place / destination
+ coleteral
+ reward upon sucesfull delivery
+ time limits within the contract should be claimed (e.g. 7 days)
+ time limit to deliver the cargo (e.g. 1 day)
+ there is also a description field (max 50 characters)
also you can direct the delivery to your self or corp (and eventualy corp hanag division, if corp have office there)

it is better in my opnion because:
+ only one contract is made and it take care of it all. so no need to disturb a admin (Alaska) more than ones, in order to set up and end a haul mission. So 1 mission = 1 contract.
+ the one who is doing the haul have easy links to navigate after
+ like item exchange contracts that are made private, the pilot in question get attention light in hit intercom contract button.

hope this makes it clear to others why i think courier contracts are better for courier mission.

I will take a look into this with a test mission this evening. If it works out as a much easier option, all courier missions will be switched to this method Smile
