Mission - The Cody Asher Marooned
Here's a mission I've come up with for my crew. Based, of course, on a certain training excercise at a hypothetical space corps academy.
It's simple, but designed to be annoying. I don't know how else to post a complete mission on this forum, so I'm just going to copy and paste the text in here, and if anyone wants to play it, they can copy and paste it into their own .xml file.
I'm not a programmer - at least not since my Commondore 64 days - so most of this is stolen from the other missions.
