Which things exactly determine the outcome of automissions?
1. I assume more soldiers is always good?
2. What about weapons? Does it matter if I bring knives or plasma rifles?
3. Do soldiers' skills play a role?
4. If I give a PB Pistol to my sniper, and not a sniper rifle, does it make a difference?
5. Does the equipment in soldiers' backpacks affect the outcome?
6. Does the time of the day affect the outcome (with the possible advantage for the aliens)?
7. How come the automission option is not always available? At first I thought it was about the map size, so that the autoresolve wasn't available for the smaller maps. But that's not always the case. Although it seems at least 2/3 of the time when autoresolve isn't available, it's a small map. What gives? Is it a bug?

Several missiontypes are flagged as story-line missions, they cannot be autoresolved.

it's about mapDef's marked as story related: maps.ufo (http://ufoai.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=ufoai/ufoai;a=blob;f=base/ufos/maps.ufo;h=c8a80f8848296b7a36397f9a8a85392f069e844f;hb=c817af3848945bf9514af5cf748e9f382e1983d3)

A base defense mission can not be autoresolved. If a UFO has order to attack one of your bases but instead is shot down, the mission still counts as base defense. Or something like that.

Not even armor? :(
