Tracking sets of missions? #4

I'm not quite sure how it would be best done, but it seems like tracking sets of missions that are often run in parallel or as a sequence might be a useful thing to be able to do.

For a trivial example, the difference between only doing "For a Fistful of Zombies" and also doing "Bullets for Andy".

"For a Fistful of Zombies" completes when you enter the police compound.

"For a Fistful of Zombies" + "Bullets for Andy", you need to stop to pick up the side mission as well as picking up the bullets, then run to the top of the police station in order to turn in the mission.

Most people will do both because running the two missions in parallel is more efficient (in terms of reward/minute) than running the two separately, even though the total elapsed time will be slightly greater than just doing the main mission.

For a non-trivial example, it would be useful to be able to track the time to complete the various combinations of missions you can do to complete the daily challenges.

Possibly the simplest (not necessarily the easiest) possible thing would be to define sets of missions that are often run together or in a chain.

Edit: For some sets of missions that might be valuable to collect, the Missions tab on the spreadsheet here: https://tinyurl.com/Gearycraft
