Does 2nd mission to a terror site reuse the old map & casualties?

[Nerva]

If there's a terror site, I send a first assault team, it gets killed or must evac, so I send a second assault team, does the 2nd mission reuse the map generated for the first, with all the battle damage, dead aliens & civilians etc., or is it like doing a completely new terror mission?

pretty sure the terror site dissolves when you get killed/evac with team one. if it DID persist for whatever reason it would be a completely new map for team two. want justification? the aliens moved to a slightly different part of town to find more people to kill. xcom strikes where the enemy is active, not where the enemy WAS active.

So... if I send the A-team to the terror site and immediately evac, I'll take the hit for a failed mission, but the terror site will disappear from the geoscape and I won't take the hit for not responding to a terror site?

[Warboy1982]

correct.
