so to make a mission, you have to make new lightposts, you can't use existing ones?

When you deploy lightposts, those are the ones that you can use when you make a mission...you can't use lightposts deployed by other players. Is that what you were getting at?
~•~
The posts are visible from your 'Edit Lightposts' list under your profile picture as well as from the New Mission Generation set-up; there is a drop-down menu that will list all of your lightposts in the order in which they were deployed.
I for one, do not deploy lightposts that way, I just use the 'Create a New Lightpost' field available in the second step: Organize This Mission. I just find it easier to collect my links and their commentary in a text file and just copy/paste in order to create a mission.

Here are a few notes on what helps make a good mission:

but to actually to create a mission you have to have 4 lightposts. even if you already have say 10 lightposts made ahead of time.

i think this is just a bug.

You have to have four lightposts included in the mission...
But you have dropped ten lightposts, and now have none left?
That's your issue?

Think about it this way, what if none of your deployed lightposts test out correctly? What if you need to replace them all? If you don't have any in your Inventory, then your mission is just stuck...

when you put it like that, i understand now. but at lower levels lightposts are EXPENSIVE! there should at least be a disclosure somewhere or something.

@Eshame And this is where the social implications of the game come into play...I'll drop you a crate of dp tout de suite...
