I finally managed to complete an entire patrol without getting killed, or cutting it short just to be able to install a new mod. Anyway, even though I didn't complete the assigned objective, I still managed to recieve a medal.
While I was in port, in the "office" screen, I noticed when I checked the crew management screen, my guys recieved medals, as well as promotions. The problem is, I can't issue either to anyone. I click on a guy, and try to drag a medal over him , but when I release the mouse, the medal, or promotion just returns to its' appropriate slot. I don't recieve any notice telling me that "You need so and so points" bla bla bla. Any clues as to why I can't issue medals or promotions?
I started the second patrol already, and had to forget about the medals and promotions. Real bummer!
