public interface MissionControl

The Mission Control compoenent is meant to be a way of ordering unit resources for a specific series of operations. This may include one or more units acting on a varied number of targets with different actions take for each. Advanced implementations may recruit addtional resources should some become incapacitated. Also, other additional improvements may center on optimizing the utilization of resources through shortest-path algorithms or job tradeoff between units as resources become unavailable.
