Assignments, also known as missions, are tasks that players need to complete not only for basic resource rewards but also to unlock access to progressively more complex aspects of the game. The Assignments list is accessible from the main menu.

Side Assignments[]
These are a spread of optional non-random, non-repeating assignments that can also have several tiers of difficulty for a variety of rewards, including everything from combat, to research, to donating supplies
Event Assignments[]
These are a spread of optional assignments given during special events, such as for the Yaot. They also typically come with a special Market shop with rare items available for purchase with a unique currency only available to be obtained during the event, usually through these assignments.
Daily Assignments[]
These are a set of optional random assignments that reset each day, of typically generic design such as scanning signals, destroying vessels and collecting research points. One of important note is Periodic Activity: If you complete 8 daily assignments within a single day, you can earn 25 Adamant.
Weekly Assignments[]
These are a set of optional random assignments that reset each week, for larger rewards than the Daily assignments
Strike Assignments[]
These are more dangerous assignments intended to be completed by groups of players. They can involve attacking very large and well armed pirate bases, defending civilian stations from extensive attacks and the like. These can be very, very difficult (and in some cases impossible) for players to complete solo if their ships and equipment are at the same tier as the Strike.
