The info_mission quest variable is available in T2 (TMA) only. It is not available in DromEd game mode, TG, or T1 (TDP), where the variable will not be set.Every time the mission is started or loaded, KDGetInfo populates a number of mission quest variables with information about the game environment. These values are available at Sim time and can be tracked by TrigQVar. They are also updated when this script receives an UpdateVariables message and, for T2 (TMA), when the player returns from a menu. They are deleted as the script unloads, to prevent them from being stored with the mission in DromEd.
