As another fairly new player to this "Alpha/Beta", I'd just like to add to the list the one bug I've had the most trouble with. Loading ground missions, and the loss of all points for capturing the UFO. I don't mind taking grievious wounds to my soldiers left and right, I counted a mission where I had 4 below 30% still a success. But having to iron man all the ground missions means if you make a mistake and lose a couple of your squad your left with doing the whole mission over, or losing out on the 100 points for the UFO.. and since everything else is worth so few points it makes it really matter.

Making it based on where you put them in the dropship would work. And as for how it works over 10.. how are they making it work now? we're not changing the system, just how they are assigned their number. Even if it goes over 10 you can use the mouse wheel to scroll to the next troop in order.

Right now you can put you guys in any place on your chopper, but their battlefield numbers can't be modified that I've seen. As in the hot keys for selecting your units. 1-8 for starters etc. The reason I mention this, I run usually 2-3 seprate groups on the field. 2, 2-3 man rifleman squads and the third a heavy weapons/backup. If I could put my troups in order by numbers how I wanted then when I'm going through my troops it cycles through the members of each group instead of jumping all over the place as it is now.
