When you are given a mission does the location of the mission follow any specific pattern, i don't mean the system but the area you warp to in the system.
Exploration sites spawn within a given distance of a celestial body, do mission follow a similar pattern?

I did this for a while a few years ago and it always seemed random back then.

I tried to probe someone in lowsec a few days ago, and he certainly wasn't even inside 8AU from the closest planet. I just assumed that the his deadspace pocket follows the normal location rules and didn't bother to check distance on dscan.
As a result, no missioner Drakes where harmed during the process :(

Mission deadspaces can be anywhere within the outer limits of a system, though some missions seem to consistently produce deadspaces close to the center of a system - and thus on dscan - while others are almost always far from any celestial (though this could just be my natural human tendency to see patterns, it'd make more sense for it to be completely random).
Incidentally, this makes them an excellent way of getting safespot locations that would otherwise be impossible to achieve. I typically bookmark every mission BM I get in low/nullsec for this reason. |

Do any of you know how the scan id's are assigned to ships?
Do they change when you dock up?, warp in and out of systems? or after down time?

Thanks Tamiya, good info. (probing missioners is not something we normally do, hence the cluelessness)
dexington good questions, will do some tests!

I believe I read in some other thread that the IDs do not change. No guarantees on this, though.
