Suggestion: cancel button in mission
6 Posts	Link to post - Posted September 25th 2016 at 3:02 PM oooooo It may happen that you start a (long) mission but you do not realize that you need a crusader. Why don't have a button to cancel the mission?

So, I'm not against canceling missions per se, it just needs to be done properly. One possible solution would be to have a specific talent for that (more talents are always good!), that allows you to cancel a mission with a certain cooldown which could be reduced with talent levels, starting from several days (maybe something around 10) and going down to maybe half a day when the talent is maxed. This could be used to "get rid" of long, useless missions, but it won't be free, you'll have to invest idols in order to do that.

Always being able to cancel a mission with it returning to the queue or simply combining it with a long cooldown are both valid ideas. Having the opportunity to cancel a mission immediately after its start (when noticing a crucial mistake)would also be ok. @Vingummi: Remember that games are designed to bring fun. Every smart game designer would tell you that it is very important to let the players feel good about whatever they do in a game. There is no reason to punish people for doing a small mistake, just because they could have avoided it.

So the only advantage would be getting your guys back - the next mission wouldn't come any sooner than it would've ordinarily done, so not really exploitable.
