How can I find a well paying mission?

The mission panel gives you a variety of ways you can look for missions that pay out well. You can view missions by the following:
• Top Rated
• Most Popular

Then you have the ability to filter those categories to find the following:
• Sort by experience type
• By week, month, all time

How do I search for a mission?

Click on the Missions Panel Page; select Search and type in the name of the mission or the avatar's (creator's) name to find the mission.

How do I find my active tasks for a mission?

There are two ways to see the current clue or task hint for the active mission:

Method 1: The Mission Helper

The small brown hat at the top right hand side of your screen is your Mission Helper. Click on the hat, and you'll see the name of the mission task that's currently active. Click on the task name and the active mission card will pop up on your screen.

Method 2: The Active Mission Panel

Click on the Missions icon at the bottom of your SmallWorlds window while you are inworld.  The Missions panel will open, as shown below.  Then click on the Active button on the side of the Missions panel.

Find the currently active mission in the list that will be displayed, and select it. Details of the active task will be shown on the right side of the Missions panel.

My active mission task has a line through the task, what does that mean?

The mission that you were completing may have expired or been deleted by the creator. Click the Cancel Mission link to clear that mission from your active mission panel.

How can I find when I last completed a mission?

Open your Missions Panel (the Hat icon in the middle of your bottom toolbar). On the left side of the panel, click on Completed. This will detail the last 35 missions your avatar has completed.

Where can I find the actual time I completed a mission?

Open your My Profile panel (the passport icon on your bottom toolbar). On the left side of the panel, click on Account, and you will see your transaction history. This will show the actual time you completed your missions based on your local time. This will not detail SmallWorlds Time.
