# Ignoring Platoons

This is a helper utility that allows you to tell the platoon assigner to not make any assignments for the specified platoon or squadron.

## Platoon Ignoring

{% hint style="info" %}
Platoon requirements do not need to be filled out in an ignored platoon. Any requirements that are filled out will be ignored by the platoon assigner.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Choosing to ignore a platoon or squadron will result in none of the requirements inside of it to be considered when calculating for the guild which collectibles need to be worked on.
{% endhint %}

## Mission Ignoring

If you'd like to ignore all platoons for a given mission, head up to the Mission Utility Menu and choose **Ignore this mission**.

## Platoon Un-ignoring

![Including a single platoon via the Platoon Utility Menu](/files/-LEh2zpBL7IatE6awMcZ)

{% hint style="info" %}
After including a previously ignored platoon, all of the requirements for that platoon must be filled out, or you must ignore the platoon again, in order to submit for assignments.
{% endhint %}

## Mission Un-ignoring

Just like ignoring all platoons for a mission is possible, so is including all platoons for a mission. In the Mission Utility Menu, choose **Include this mission**.
