I am trying to do the mission now, I have got across the promenade, and are up against the Jem'Hadar fighter guys, but I am attempting to complete the Optional Objectives. I did find 1 trap, which was in the next area up past the location marked as "Intruder". But when I activated that trap, it showed completed in the 2nd optional objective on the list. So the location and order of the traps and how they list from top to bottom in mission list is confusing me

Have I somehow missed the 1st trap? or are those optional objectives in a different order then to what the list as. Like the 1st Trap is called "Use Force Field Controls to Defenestrate Jem'Hadar" Now is this one always the 1st trap or not? I really need to know, as I am a major completionist and it is difficult for me to complete the area without doing the Optionals as well, can anyone help me with this question?

No, you haven't. There is the environmental controls (first), the useful supplies, and on the upper walkway (last to be reached), the forcefield.

Thanks, I worked it out, your help, helped. Thanks

I spent ages looking for that first trap, perhaps the order of the optional objectives should be changed, so people like me don't spend ages going from one end of the Lower Promenade to the other trying to find a control panel that they haven't actually got to yet.

Nah, leave 'em be. I suspect that they're in that order because when they go back and sort it out into career specific objectives it'll be Useful Supplies = Tactical, Environmental = Engineering, and Forcefield = Science.

Fixed that for you for pure nitpicking reasons!
