I was watching one of xwynns LW2 videos. He was reviewing his soldier list looking for ones to send on a mission. Most of the list said "Infiltrating" for their status.
I wonder if the status field could be changed to include the mission name in the status field.

I know it´s not the same, but in one of his latest videos he shows a mod he installed recently (can´t remember the mod´s name), which provides only the names of the infiltrating soldiers when you click on "view squad" in a mission. Check out one of the last 3 or 4 videos.

I have that mod. I was wondering if more info could be provided when viewing the soldier list in the Armory.

Honestly.. if i had to "ask" for a new feature in the Barracks List that could add supplemental details in those --Status-- fields.. it would be more than just fiddling with the Infiltrating string.
-- Adding the "SquadIcons" as a prefix symbol (32x32?) to that text line would be extremely useful to (rapidly) detect WHO is assigned to WHAT.
-- Appending the current (Percentages--%) completed to these lines could also be usefull to allow us to optimize the relative time(s) of interventions & to detect which squads are the most likely candidates for emergency situations where a quick ABORT becomes necessary.
Just to focus on two of my preferences.
My 2¢!

....You know, treating 'Haven Advisor' as a 'squad' would make a lot of sense....Zyxpsilon wrote:Honestly.. if i had to "ask" for a new feature in the Barracks List that could add supplemental details in those --Status-- fields.. it would be more than just fiddling with the Infiltrating string.

I'm pretty sure they are, technically? But it's a squad per haven advisor, since each squad can only be on one mission at a time, and being a haven advisor counts as being on a mission.dstar3k wrote:....You know, treating 'Haven Advisor' as a 'squad' would make a lot of sense....

Except that you can have the _soldiers_ from a squad on multiple missions, if you select them individually.RantingRodent wrote:I'm pretty sure they are, technically?

With the ability to change advisor equipment coming in 1.3, it would be really nice to be able to go to squad management, select the Haven Advisor squad, and just go down the list updating equipment....
