Flying this mission ... again?

A question that comes to my mind as I think about it. Doing a mission assigned or whatever for OS2. But if I had done that mission times ago?

May be a clear case for some, but I ask: redoing or sending in old files alllowed here?

I'd say redoing is a safe bet. Although it's only the... three or four missions which uses old sims. The rest are probably going to be custom-made, just like the first OS had.

EDIT: General Burton has told me that perhaps I misread the question. Let me make things clear.

1) I have already completed ERS-X. May I fly this mission again, creating a new pilot file or screenshot, and send that in for credit?
Yes.

2) Can I send in a pilot file or screenshot I have already sent in for credit at some point in the past?
No.

Question:

I have flown a mission today and "strangely" I got the same score as the same mission I flown 2 years ago. Can I send it?

Answer:

No. Don't be lazy and redo it. This is a long, long campaign. And it will be much funnier if we don't put to much confusion in it.

Along those same lines, some missions are actually capable of hitting a max score. Don't beat yourself up trying to get an extra point when it may not exist.

I once left SWGB on all night so my workers could deforest a whole island. :P

I think it's one of my highscores. Should be, at any rate. :P

I used to keep a rubber band on my joystick trigger for similar reasons :P

I think you'll need to ask Laith about this, but I'm pretty sure we proved back in the day that ions don't raise your score, no matter how much you shoot... :P

Who said I was using ions? ;)
