Contract tweak

[Torgo]

I am really enjoying the updated contract system, but a couple I received last night seemed a bit wonky.

I had just placed a crew on a station, and about 14 days in, got a contract that one person needed to be replaced due to medical emergency. Great concept for a contract!

The deadline to accept the contract was fine, but the deadline to complete it was 2 years. How bad of an emergency is it that it can wait two years?  There was also a contract to replace an imminently failing power module, but imminent for this contract was also a long ways away. 

I'd expect, for those kind of contracts, the deadline to perform them would be a matter of days or maybe weeks. Perhaps that is something that can be tweaked for the next release.

Are you sure those are stock contracts? They sound EXACTLY like Kerbin Space Station contracts.

It could be. I do have that mod installed. I'm at work so I can't open the game right now to double check. 

Well, I could, but it would be hard to explain it to my boss if she walked in! My day job no longer involves actual rocket science... it's much harder. Translating end user speak to engineer speak and vice versa.

If you have KSS installed then it's definitely not stock. I have it set to turn off the stock station contracts.

Come talk to me about it on the KSS thread - I'm sure we can find a solution that works for everyone.
