Objectives, difficulty and stealth
Understand why Agent, Secret Agent and 00 Agent change the mission route.

At least one required objective was incomplete or failed. Check the watch screen before leaving.
What changes on higher difficulties?
Enemies become more dangerous and missions add objectives, items, rooms or characters that must be handled.
