Summary0010122: Better interface for choosing survivors for missions
DescriptionWhen you're choosing survivors to go on a mission, the UI does not display the survivors' current locations. This is especially annoying when you are trying to get survivors away from the overlord.

It would be nice if there were a world map in that window indicating where each survivor is located (or, better yet, allowing you to select survivors directly from the map).

Showing other statistics (only highly-rated ones?) for each survivor could also improve the survivor selection experience. It's hard to tell what points are being drawn away from other parts of the map. As is, we need to exit the menu and look up the survivors in the strategic overview.

Perhaps providing one-button navigation between the screens would work?

I would also like a "select all" button on the dispatch interface. A lot of the time I find myself moving survivors in stacks, since you can only make one dispatch per turn. Its tiresome highlighting a lot of guys individually each time.

+1 for select all button.

Also, being able to tell which survivors are where would be immensely helpful. I usually never keep track of any individual and just blob them along together. Perhaps making them more distinguishable from eachother would help make them easier to keep track of when you do need to split them up.

Hmmm, I guess this one is no longer relevant as of 0.716?
