You should add list of casualties after each video.

Yeah, I guess I need to go back and see who's dead. Trouble is, it takes quite a bit of checking to see who died. I'm going to add a request to display who died onscreen :)

This is a very good feature request. You should always be able to bring up a summary page of soldiers in the battle that includes their health/wounds and whatever else can comfortably fit on one screen, maybe weapon equipped.

Very agreed. Mission summary  screen really lack of detailed info on whom you've captured as live alien, and which of xcoms has died and which are MIA. They are not some alien alloys or unnamed alien corpses...

Only thing this screen lack is solder rank, but I dont see space for this, maybe merge Kills & missions to one column?
e.g.
Code: [Select]
Name         K/M      Rank        Date
Jon Doe      10/2     Sergeant    19 Jul 1999

Jon Doe      10         Sergeant    2 (19 Jul 1999)

Haha, what did happen at 6:55? I guess he did something wrong at reloading the gun and it exploded in his hands...

edit: And lol at the end :)

pmprog, I've added a new setting in options.cfg in the latest build that might help you (assuming it's compatible with your save), if you set "battleNotifyDeath: true" you'll get messages informing you who died so you don't lose track. :)
