Operational Contracts — Tasking from Command

Operational contracts give station staff a way to introduce side missions alongside the main scenario. Tasking can be issued by server command or generated through the platform's Contract Director policies. Uplink receives authorised contracts and exposes available tasking through the Contracts entry on the group commanding menu. In-match handlers deploy or monitor the objective, check the required evidence and report completion, failure or expiry back to the platform. The platform controls authorisation, scheduling and rewards. Uplink supplies the in-game execution and result reporting, so rewards depend on the reported outcome rather than simply receiving a briefing. Contracts are now part of Uplink. Station command controls their availability and polling cadence through live configuration.
