How do you get the token crate?

Ok I feeling a bit dumb but how do you get the token crate?
I did the following
- Completed all 6 missions and got 3 stars in each of them.
- I got the challenge crate (25K XP) and the deluxe challenge crate (lvl17 rare assault armour - my survivors are lvl17 & 18)
- It then gave me the option to move to the next round which I pressed.
- It now says I have 31 stars.
- Also the crates have all changed, i.e. 60 stars for challenge, 90 for deluxe, etc
In order to have gotten the token crate, did I need to stay at that round and keep repeating the missions until I get the stars for the token crate? i.e. I shouldn't have advanced to the next round.

So my question is do you have to repeat the missions until you get stars required for the token crate? i.e. do not press move to next round and repeat the missions until you get the stars required for token crate?
If you still think you didn't get it, I'd suggest an in-game ticket to support.
When you moved to the next round, you got enough stars for both the deluxe crate and the token crate at the same time. The would have opened one after the other, and before you saw the missions reset for your second round. If you tapped several times in succession, you might have missed the token crate. The title at the top of the window will tell you which crate you are opening.
Staying in a round after you get 3 stars on every mission cannot earn you more stars; we left in the option in case the player was unsure if they could beat the next round, or if they wanted to use the challenge missions as faux-scavenges. If many players find this too problematic and get stuck repeating missions and wondering why they do not get more stars, we may change things down the road and insist that the player move on.
Hopefully you make it through the second leg of the progress bar and earn another token crate - just don't skip through next time!
Please note: Development is a fluid process, and suggestions and implementation take time and iteration. Any discussion of future features, deadlines, updates, balance changes, and such should be considered prospective and subject to change.
I re-watched @painclasher video below, I didn't see him get a token crate either. At 8:19, he presses "move to next round", you see his deluxe crate, but no token crate. At 8:57, there is a token crate but it says you reached 120 stars and not "you reached 30 stars". Also it doesn't seem to be a continuous video, i.e. it looks to have been edited for him to jump to that point.
Just make a big "Go to next round" text on a button?

Yeah. Doesn't really make sense to leave the round open if it's not beneficial. I was trying to figure out why it says I can go back to missions when I already had all 18 stars. Had to ask in the guild if more stars are available to get or what. Just make the next advancement automatic if they have all 18 stars. Clear and concise.
I can imagine a scenario where I might want to hang at rsl20 for example. Easy to do without hospital. Best possible rewards.
Forcing me to go to next round might mean I can't scavenge these missions because of hospital time.
Maybe there is another way to make things more obvious. Don't directly go kill a good concept.
So maybe if it was less hard for people to comprehend.
Both can exist at the same time.
NG on purpose added the option for scavanging challenges.
I don't know how many really want it (like me and I can imagine those buying boosters), but I don't think they are few.
> @jimmorrison369 But that's a choice you want to make. They aren't beneficial as a whole to not move forward. There are actual scavenge missions for scavenging. Regardless of their rewards and so forth. The challenge shouldn't be unclear solely for the few who want to use them differently.
The reason is that gas cost will be less for scavenging the challenge missions, allowing more "bang for your buck." People will figure the system out. It's only day 2. Give it time before you assume it's so confusing that players' heads will explode. Give us SOME credit
Main issue is that unless people come to the forum (search and then sometimes have to read pages to find the answer buried on page four of the fifth thread they find) they don't know a lot abt the challenge. Yeah, there was a video, kinda scattered and all the lil ins and outs aren't explained. That, I find irritating even as someone who does use the forum. I know there's been talk before abt people shouldn't have to come to the forum to know how things work in game.
So I guess there's already plenty that needs fixing.
And I didn't mean few as in three or four. I merely meant the minority.
@General_Quatre
No one's head is gonna explode. Clear concise is how it should be period. Shouldn't have to "figure it out" or wonder or go through trial and error wasting resources.
I also didn't assume. It's fact.
I don't get the first token crate - the one after the first round. The game just skips it... Not just once, but for the 3 or 4 past weeks. I think it's one of the bugs that are still crawling around

If this is not the case for you, than it is a bug and you should report it in the "Bugs" section if you want it changed.
