Editing Drift City/Moon Palace Station 1

{{Header Nav|game=Drift City}}

You'll start off having to complete five rookie missions. Complete them and then you'll be told to continue from station two.

|briefing=Hi, Player! It's nice to meet you! You must be nervous for your first mission...haha! Player, your first mission is to transport bread for the Fogel Bakery. What do you think? What, the job isn't big enough for you? Your boosting and drifting skills aren't up to par yet. Develop your techniques first by doing easy jobs! First, get the bread from the main branch of Fogel Bakery, then deliver the bread to the second branch. After finishing the delivery, come back here. Keep an eye on the GPS arrow at the top of the screen. Refer to it if you've lost your sense of direction!!

==Rookie Mission (2/5)==
{{Drift City Objectives
|level=2
|exp=50
|mito=300
|briefing=This time you'll be on patrol duty, so listen up! There are rumors that hoodlums are prowling around the Americanas Apartments, and the residents are getting scared. Your job will be to patrol the area. Just make your patrol rounds; it will alleviate concerns. Unlike the last mission, you can simply pass through the red lit area. There's no need to make a full stop. The booster you received earlier is a masterpiece of OMD government engineering. Don't underestimate it as a normal booster. When the Booster Gauge is full, press the [Ctrl] key to unleash a burst of speed. Hold on, there's more! The Booster Gauge gradually fills as you drive, but if you try risky techniques such as driving against traffic, or drifting, the Booster Gauge will fill faster. Give it a shot. Alright, go out and patrol around the apartments. Pay attention to how fast your Booster Gauge is filled. Zoom through your patrol route and show the thugs who's boss!

# Patrol Complex 8 of the Americanas Apartments.

==Rookie Mission (3/5)==
{{Drift City Objectives
|level=2
|exp=100
|mito=600
|item=Booster Protector D
|briefing=The car you are driving runs a on a called Mittron. You knew that, right? Haha! If an OMD driver's level is low, their choice of car is limited. But if they reach a higher level, better cars are available. High end cars have excellent speed and acceleration, but they also use a lot of Mittron fuel. This car is a Snake. Only drivers of level 51 or higher can drive this car. Your job is to deliver this car to the high level OMD driver who lives in the Rivermark Housing District. Drive very carefully and don't scratch this car! You got it?
|speaker=Station 1 Staff Lim
|objectives=# Deliver the Snake to the Rivermark Housing District. (9 crashes)
}}
You will drive a white Snake V7 during this mission. At the end of this mission, you will no longer have the Snake and will be returned to your car automatically. There are a few missions like this one throughout the game, such as Stupid Mission from Cras Station 4. While in a car you don't own, the car's stats will ignore your car's parts and your user points. This is also your first mission with a crash limit. Missions with crash limit count how many times you crash into something. If you crash up to the crash limit shown, you will fail the mission and have to start over. If you fail a mission with a crash limit, the game will try to give you a break by increasing the crash limit each time you fail until you finish the mission successfully. A crash limit only applies to a specific objective in a mission. Therefore, if you attempt a mission with two objectives, each with a crash limit, by the time you complete the first objective, the crash counter will reset for the next crash limit. Objectives with crash limits will have their crash limits listed without any mission failures in this guide.

==Rookie Mission (4/5)==
{{Drift City Objectives
|level=3
|exp=100
|mito=600
|item=Small
|briefing=This is an emergency! I'm sorry for giving a hard mission to a beginner like you. But there were no available drivers, so I had to call you. An HUV caused a car accident near the Americanas Apartments. There's someone in critical condition, but no ambulances are available. It's up to you to get them to the hospital! Check the mini map in the lower left for the [Q] mark. Make sure you're taking the shortest route possible! The injured person is depending on you. There's no time to waste. Get going!
|speaker=Station 1 Staff Lim
|objectives=# Pick up the patient from Complex 5 of the Americanas Apartments within the time limit. (0:35)
# Pick up the patient at the Moon Palace Post Office within the time limit. (0:45)
# Transport the patients to the Moon Palace Hospital within the time limit. (0:35)
}}
This is your first mission with a time limit. Time limits are similar to crash limits, except that instead of crashing too many times, taking too long to complete an objective will cause you to fail the mission. Time limits increase if you fail a mission to give you a break if you are finding the mission too difficult and a time limit only applies to a specific objective, just like crash limits do.
From the start you'll have 35 seconds on the clock so head east, then southeast to the first point. When you reach the red zone, stop to pick up the patient.

The clock will reset, this time with 45 seconds. Continue south east on the road, then at the intersection turn left and head east to the Q (located on the other side of the intersection on the sidewalk of the post office).

You'll be given another 35 seconds to race south to the final red zone at the hospital.

When finished, head back to Station 1 to get the final rookie mission. You just received your first Small, so open up the inventory screen with {{kbd|F3}}. With the parts tab selected in the top left, drag the Small item into one of the speed slots. You'll notice your total speed attribute will increase! Later in the game parts will be a necessity for upgrading the performance of your vehicles.

==Rookie Mission (5/5)==
{{Drift City Objectives
|level=3
|exp=100
|mito=300
|briefing=You won't make enough money or improve your status if you only do jobs for the OMD Government. I've seen your paychecks. How the heck do you pay for Mittron? Alright, alright. I'll let you in on a little secret. OMD drivers are usually not allowed to do part time jobs, but the government allows one exception. You can work for the Delivery Service of NHN Co., a big retail company owning stores all over the island. They are the largest company on Mittron Island! I don't know what the relationship between OMD and NHN is, but the government only seems to permit their drivers to work for this company. Strange, isn't it? First, get certified for Delivery Service at the OMD Government Complex. After that, you can get Delivery Service of NHN Co. assignments from the Stations! Head over to the OMD Government Complex now!
|speaker=Station 1 Staff Lim
|objectives=
# Go to the OMD Government Complex within the specified time. (1:10)
# Get the Delivery Service sticker.
}}
With 1:10 on the clock you'll face a fairly long distance drive. Simply follow the path that the GPS arrow gives you (its similar to Mission 4's path) and head to the right side of the star badge icon on your map. Once there, you'll meet a fellow OMD driver named Jan looking to get his certification as well.

After he introduces himself, you'll need to simply drive into the complex and up onto the pedestal with the Red Zone. You'll speak with Director Green about getting your Delivery Service Sticker (basically the license, or ability, to accept delivery missions). Concluding the conversation you will complete the mission as Erina cuts in to talk about what just happened.

Although it does say you won't be able to use your GPS arrow, it's only temporary. After you complete this mission, you are able to perform deliveries and receive instant missions. Instant missions can either be call missions, where you have to accept the call before finding out what the mission is, or patrol missions, where you have to drive to a yellow beacon similar to the red beacons you've seen already in the rookie missions you have already done. You can only have one active instant mission at a time, but you can have an active instant mission and an OMD mission active at the same time.
{{-}}
Head back to the station for some final missions. Operator Erina will probably have your first call mission while you're headed there, so accept the call once you get it by pressing {{kbd|Tab}}. Although call missions vary in objectives and rewards, they become harder and more rewarding as you level up. You may receive this as your call mission:
{{Quote|To increase your driving skill, you need to compete against other drivers in the Battle Zone. Player, complete 2 races in the Battle Zone and, as an incentive, I'll give you money and exp.|Operator Erina}}
You can either accept or refuse the call mission as you please. To give you an understanding of how they work, accept the mission. As a result, you will gain an "instant mission" that can be completed at any time. You can abandon the instant mission if it becomes too hard, but if you log out before completing an instant mission, it will automatically be abandoned. When you finally complete two races in the Battle Zone, you'll receive 100 Mito and 30 EXP. Finish heading to the station. Instead of one large button to start a rookie mission, you will have an option to start an OMD mission, a delivery, or go to the Battle Zone. You will only have an OMD mission available if the button has the word "NEW!" next to it. If this word is not by this button, you're either at the wrong station or you are not a high enough level for the next mission. Delivery missions are also only available at a station if the button has the word "NEW!" next to it. There is always at least one station that has deliveries available, but this station is usually where you'd get your OMD missions from if you were the minimum level to start them. The Battle Zone is where you compete in races against other drivers. Click this button to go to the Battle Zone and finish your instant mission. You can and should also play the Battle Zone tutorial to understand how Battle Zone races work. Battle Zone races give lots of Mito and experience depending on which arena you are racing in. Arenas range from 2 times normal experience to 9 times normal experience, but most are restricted to players of certain levels.

}}
Instant missions are random and vary greatly.  Because of this, instant missions are generally not in this walkthrough.  This mission is here because it introduces instant missions to the game.  Click on the Battle Zone icon at any station to be teleported to the Battle Zone menu.  Click on join game (individual or team) at the top to join a currently created room.  Play two games and you're done.  If you want to go back, hit exit in the top right corner (which will take you to the driver dome) and then drive to one of the exits in the area.  Choose any channel and you'll be placed back in Moon Palace.  Once you have completed your instant mission, go to Station 1 if you are not there already and click on Missions (or press 1) for your final mission here.

== Instant Mission: Officer Heather's Patrol Instant Mission ==

|briefing=Oh!  Maybe you can help me!  I can't patrol all the areas of Moon Palace by myself!  If you help me by patrolling some, I'll give you 1 exp. for each area you patrol!
|speaker=OMD Officer Heather
|objectives=# Patrol all of the areas on the map marked by circled yellow dots.  
}}
Patrols are another type of instant mission.  These change with each city you're in and are only available if you don't already have an instant mission.  They are also only available in the city where you receive your OMD missions.  Patrols give a small amount of experience for each patrol area that is passed and a larger amount for completing the patrol.  Later patrols even give parts and Liquid Mittron, used to make a [[Drift City/Mittron Enhancer|Mittron Enhancer]].  These patrols give parts for every 50 areas patrolled and one Liquid Mittron when the patrol is complete.  
{{-}}
As you progress through the game, the rewards from patrols increase faster than other ways to level up.  Patrols never give Mito as a reward, but items from later patrols can be sold for a much higher price than you can receive from most ways to make money or experience.  Patrols have some of the best experience rewarded as well.  In Moon Palace, you will have to patrol 40 areas for a total of 70 experience.  In Cras, patrols give a total of 550 experience, 3 high-level parts, and 1 Liquid Mittron Small each for patrolling 160 areas.

==The 2nd Station==

|mito=300
|briefing=Did you think the city has only one Station? Are you kidding? There are four stations in this city. Station 1 is mainly for beginner drivers. It looks like you're capable of handling tougher missions. Go south from here. You will find Station 2! When you get there, ask for Vanessa. She'll hook you up with higher level jobs.
|speaker=Station 1 Staff Lim
|objectives=
*Move to Station 2.
}}Head south east, following the GPS arrow. You can crash as much as you like and take your time. When you finally get there, Vanessa will greet you.

{{quote|Hi! I'm Vanessa! Well, well, we finally have a decent driver...|Station Staff 2 Vanessa}}

You will receive your reward and then be able to access mission from Station 2. Station 1 will no longer have any missions for you.

== Deliveries ==
You can only do deliveries after you have finished Rookie Mission (5/5) and have received your delivery service sticker.
