I mean, at a certain scale, not finding out a crop circles happened, doesn't make sense, since we are a gigantic organization at that point. Maybe add a bigger penalty for each promotion or disable "old crop circles" entirely after promotion 3 and make crop circles missions more prevalent?

Hmmm, I think the idea is that at some point, you don't care about crop circles, not that you have no idea they are still happening. There could be a monthly expenditure for sending out low level investigators to do this kind of stuff automatically. It could require a base facility. In any case, the simplest method (and the one solarius has mentioned) which is to just stop those missions after a certain time sounds totally acceptable from a narrative point of view. There could be flavor text to accompany this change, like the random events. What are "old crop circles"? Is there another type of crop circle mission I haven't seen yet?

And similarly, I can't comprehend sprite making but I do know how to program, these two things are very mutually exclusive.

They are definitely not mutually exclusive (verily or otherwise).

It's just that they are also not mutually inclusive.
