I am not sure why alphabetical would help. Could you explain how you would use that? Out of the suggestions so far, I can see: - Sort by Distance - Sort by Time Remaining - Filter by Local / Global I don't think this is shaping up as a one size fits all type of filtering. All of the above filter options seem like good ones to me. (even the ones the crazy guy who started the thread wants) A good solution: Add a filter menu bar on the right hand side of Current Missions display. Select items with touch screens, mouse click, or pc hotkey.

Any filter or sorting we add will work like all other filters and sorting features (see Crew List, Exchange, etc).
I am not sure about these alphabetical sorts of any kind. I don't understand why you would want the missions in order of title.
Look forward to improving!

Contacts/missions; Looking for Local/Local or Global/Global not Local/Global default view. Any thing that happens or not I'll be happy with. How can I have such a heaping feast on the table and ask for more? Anybody remember the fat guy that exploded in the restaurant? Movie Monty Python's Meaning of life.

Oooh ooh, how about this. Have two sections, all showing at same time. Top section with a header is all Local Missions, then below that under it's own header, all remaining Global Missions. This should not interfere with the filters or sorting method. Bump.

Right now when you look at your crew, you can filter on 'all' or 'levelling' or 'fighters' and then sort by 'level', 'job', and 'tenure'. (Incidentally, I wish that the default was filter-on-levelling and sort-by-job).
I'd like it when you look at your missions you can filter on 'all' (which is what we call global, now) or 'local' (so you only get the missions in the quadrant you are in), or 'needs passenger cabin' or 'needs prison cell' and then sort by 'due date' or 'distance from you -- so all distant quadrants are farther away than the one you are in, but the plant you are orbiting is closer to you than the one on the other side of the quadrant -- or sort by faction (who benefits) or by faction (who is harmed) and finally sort by the name of the contact that gave you the mission.
Filtering on 'needs passenger cabin' and 'needs prison cell' is so that, if you have several missions all accepted that use such things, more occupants then you have cabins/cells you can make sure you drop off some of the early occupants before you pick up the ones that will use it later, instead of arriving on a planet that has a passenger waiting to board while you are already full up with passengers because you did the missions in slightly the wrong order.
