Scoring reference

First Mission Dossiers and Score-Range Analysis

Mission 2, 16 and 28 now have bilingual community-reference dossiers. The new diagnostic keeps unknown time decay as bounds rather than guessing a formula.

The first three mission dossiers cover Nomad, Singer and A Thousand Points of Light. They are source-attributed community references, not in-game tests by this site.

What changed

The mission library supports number/name search. Each dossier includes shared scoring data and a conditional range diagnostic. The calculator includes the same diagnostic and retains its independent manual comparison. Progress links can prefill a mission name but never a rank.

What did not change

The reference-inspired homepage layout, local artwork, default English, Chinese routes, local-only progress and indexing safeguards are unchanged. There is no database, account system, advertising integration or automatic source scraper.

Remaining limits

Three missions are covered, not the whole campaign. Exact patches, time-decay curves and retry deductions have not been independently tested. The tool blocks unsupported conditions and does not certify an S rank.
