Thank you!

@Gutted Oh my bad! I didn't see it.

I actually found it eventually through Google, but I didn't notice it was yours, sorry.

[Gutted]

@Jonatas thats what my other chart is for

Should also mention the projects that require corpses. My first time I made the fatal mistake of selling my troopers and couldn't make the predator armor.

From the top of my head you need Troopers for plated armor and the Exo/Spider suits in the proving grounds.
You need vipers for the improved medikit, etc.

Maybe add to what some of these corpses lead to research wise. Like sectoids lead into psionics

Oh. How do you get that to happen? Do you go next to a dead MEC and press a Pick-up button, or something like that?

[Gutted]

The autopsy for mechanical units are called "breakdown"

[gmsh1964]

Not sure I understand the MEC line. You perform autopsies on them, or capture them. How do you know to do that? Is there a special mission or something? Same with Turret, can you explain that? Thank you.
