Why is the View Squad option on Map so painfully misleading?

Post by Alketi »

The View Squad option on the Strategic Map Mission screen shows the extra soldiers added to the squad for the mission. Great!

Then it shows the squad as either infiltrating or injured or available -- even if they are infiltrating OTHER missions. Why??

- Are the exact mission soldiers unknowable by the user interface?

- Can't this be modified to show only the soldiers infiltrating the mission in question?

- Or, if the squad list can't be modified, can icons be placed next to the soldiers infiltrating the mission in question?

I'm tempted to try and create a mod to improve the situation, but am wondering if this information is unknowable by the interface, or if it'll be improved in an upcoming patch.

Problem Duplication:
1. Mix and match soldiers for multiple squads for multiple missions
2. Click "View Squad" from the Strategic Map for one of these missions.
3. The screen will show the "Squad" that was chosen, however, the soldiers listed as "Infiltrating" may be on any mission that's currently infiltrating and not the specific mission chosen.
