Yeah, that's exactly what I am looking for.  I was just wondering if the data was available inside or outside of the game.

Is there any way to view the resistance of alien units to various damage types?  I was surprised that didn't show up as part of the autopsy the way resistance shows up for armor research.

Thanks for the replies!  It sounds like I need more leader interrogations since I have data slates but haven't been able to research them yet.  That's probably the major stumbling block.  I will get right on that (like, loading the game up, sending my men to their deaths right now).

Thanks again.

Any tips on expanded research for the FMP?  I think I'm using an outdated version (1.9.7) but I didn't want to update and potentially screw up my saved game.  I'm on Difficulty 3 in 2018-09-15 and I'm at a standstill in tech.  I pay 100 scientists to interrogate one live alien a month then tell me we've learned nothing of interest. 

I'm using Personal Armor which can't do much against all the Heavy Plasma I'm starting to see.  I'm hoping to get to Power Suits somehow and whatever other armors might have been added.  But the troops are starting to lose hope...

Various additional spoiler-y information on my situation:

Spoiler:

I've captured multiple leaders, engineers, and medics, which are the classes that appear to bottleneck most of the tech.  But at this point engineers are just giving me stats on various ships.  I am just starting to see a few Mutons but only in missions with Gazers as the main enemy. There has been a base full of Gazers in the Antarctic like... forever, but I've been unable to pop it because my Gauss Weapons are insufficient.  So I can't get in there to stun everyone with my Stun Rods, Dart B, or Gas Grenades.  That seems like the obvious solution (try to capture a Commander).  Though I'm fairly sure I've interrogated one before and we didn't learn much.

This compilation is amazing by the way.  I am just now getting into it, obviously.  But seriously well done.  This used to be my favorite game as a kid.  I even remember the commercial.  "Wow!  I nailed that alien!"
