OK - I know I'll be in the minority here but I FREAKING HATE IT THAT PLAYERS CAN VIEW MISSION STATUS DURING A MISSION!

There's just too much information on the status screen that a platform in real life would never have (I know DW is just a game but playing it like a sim is most of the fun - at least for me). In addition goals can give away critical victory objectives and that's not good if figuring out what is important and what is not is part of the mission.

The only legit time I believe mission status should be available to the player is in a mission specifically designed for training purposes.

SO! is there a way to turn off a player's ability to view Mission Status while a mission is active?

If not should there be? I know if I could I'd turn off a player's ability to view mission status while in mission about 99% of the time for scenarios I make.
