What happens if I fail a normal or underground (UG) mission?

Put simply, you lose the value of the mission from your credits, your game mission rating decreases, and (UG missions only) the goods are confiscated, your legal status increases and you get fined by the police.

Each mission has a certain rating (other than its credit value), this goes towards your overall mission rating, if you fail a mission its rating goes against your player mission rating..

UG missions typically have greater ratings because of their nature and so failing or succeeding at one will give greater bonuses/demerits. Further more, being caught smuggling will increase your legal status

Your overall player mission rating is used to determine what kind and how many missions you will be given in future, so if you have a good rating you will have more options when you come to look in the missions section.

Note: You cannot view your exact player mission rating anywhere in the game.

Note: There are seperate mission boards on each planet.

Note: Your wanted status will decrease with time but at a slow rate.

Note: If you have a negative M/rank your mission score gradually returns to zero over a couple of days.
