Revision as of 22:43, 17 March 2022
This is the list of the ship mission codes from the T5.10 book (book 2, p. 68), but organized differently. The purpose of this is to take another attempt to reconcile the wiki Ship Classification (and Starship-Nav-Bar-Two-2019CE) with the T5.10 mission codes. This is a request to make sure the T5.10 codes are propagated forward.
The T5 mission taxonomy is included where it clarifies the mission code.
Mission Codes
Mission Modifiers
Rob suggests that mission modifiers be added to satisfy ships that don't have T5 codes. See the secondary modifier table for suggestions.

Wiki-2 Amendment Discussion Starters
I see that a lot of work went into the Wiki-2 column, so I want to start talking over the decisions made there. In particular, I want to see how many of these are intractable, and how Wiki-2 sifted through the ship types that "fall through the cracks". Rje (talk) 17:36, 17 March 2022 (EDT)
