T'Kael, I've been wanting to tackle this for some time as a consequence of my mission scripting work with Darkcyde and was hoping to start after I finished the Cargo Monitor but we've all hit a bit of a snag with the dispatcher issues with Observable Collections. After we get this squared away in the Ship Monitor, the Cargo Monitor will go very fast, as it's mostly coded and working, then I would like to go straight to working on the Mission Monitor

[Hoodathunk]

Now that the Cargo Monitor is in beta, I will be devoting time to this project.

[Darkcyde13]

I don't know how helpful or not this may be, but here is a copy of my Missions_Type function script. I use it in my missions functions to give a humanised version of the mission types and to set things like if it's a return mission, or if it has cargo, etc.

This was a complete list of all mission types up to the end of February, so doesn't include any new ones since then (so from Elite v3). Sorry, it's not the easiest of things to read. :(

{_ Get the type of mission accepted/completed/abandoned.}
{_ returns 'type' variable which is the mission selected}
{_ 'part1', 'part2' & 'part3' can also be used for specific case scenarios}
{_ Set 'type' in calling function with event.name, or similar}

Thanks @Darkcyde13 . I will definitely be referencing that body of work when writing the Mission Monitor.
