As mentioned above, each mission type has different goals. Read the mission briefing,...

e.g. Make a new directory called anything you like (say, "improved"), and give it a subdirectory...

Re: WW: Imperial Star Destroyer mod 2.0
The scrolling-and-closing the cargo bay issue is a known 'feature' of the game, but if you press 'C' to toggle the cargo bay back on you can work around it.

Bring up the combat context menu (NOT on a ship). Select "fire". Pause the game. Move the mouse. Select "fire" again.
