Title: [Suggestion] Adding notes for individual soldiers
Post by: Alex_D on February 11, 2022, 12:23:05 am

I'd like to put forward a request about adding custom notes to soldiers.

Like to the Notes (accessed via CTRL+N), one would go to one of the soldier screens (maybe after clicking one button in soldier bonuses) and have a place to add some text.

The idea is to be able to add a log specific for a soldier. The log would be editable by the player, and could be filled it with text during manufacturing a soldier maybe to provide a background story.

This way a player could keep track of something special about a soldier without cluttering the soldier name or keeping a separate log.

Not sure how long this text can be, nor what the game engine can support. Maybe 250 characters ?

I guess we can add it to Soldier Diaries...

... although to be completely honest, I see zero usefulness in this feature.
