World-Firsts Achieved by...

Hope I've not missed this if it has already been suggested...

I think it would be good if the "Rewards" section of a contract could, after completion, be replaced by (example):

----

Achieved By

Vessel: "Jeb&I 1"

Mission Flag: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8NlTTa7T2T2alAyS2g0OGg5Zk0

Crew: Desely Kerman

----

My inspiration for this:

I kept this kind of info in .23.5 by planting a mission flag ahead of each launch/flight on the hexagonal edge of the Launch area, and noting the vessel name, crew compliment and mission objectives. After completion, I edited the entry in the save file with mission achievements/failures and if the objectives were not met, the launch aborted or crew MIA/KIA, I would amend the flag to include indicators of this. Oh and sorting the seemingly random rotation of the flag, as the Kerbal seemed to suit himself how to place it.

This went swimmingly, I thought, until twenty missions in, five flags vanished. (Turns out a falling booster had destroyed them)

The "Previous Missions Walk of Fame" looked real purdy, but it's an awful lot of faffing around.

Check out the Final Frontier mod for an example of what this would look like in-game. It doesn't integrate with contracts, but it's a good reference for what could be done in the stock game.

The 'Love for Kerbals' discussion and my blog entry give a shoot at it too, you might want to read one/both of them.

I have FF as one of my very few (4) mods.

FF

Distant Objects

Enhanced Navball

That's it.

Won't add a mod to make life easier until I prove to myself I can do it manually in stock. (Engineer, Mechjeb, docking aids, etc)
