MISSION DEBRIEF 1.0
After-action report for your whole squad
"A Helldiver who knows what he killed kills more of it." — Ministry of Truth, Field Efficiency Directive (probably)After-action report for your whole squad
The game's results screen tells you how many you killed. Mission Debrief tells you the rest: what you killed, with what, who carried the squad, who died to what (and to whom), which objectives got done and who made it onto the Pelican. Everything appears right on the game's own results screen, in the game's own font and colours, for every player in the squad, and comes back on your ship whenever you want it.
Mod status: 1.0 is the complete version and the mod is now in support mode: bug fixes and updates for new game versions continue, new features are on hold. See the pinned post for details.
Also on Nexus Mods: Mission Debrief - After-Action Report.
TWO WAYS TO READ IT
LIST VIEW (default): the pages are written into each player's card on the results screen. The game draws them itself, so they look like they always belonged there. Small bars before the rows show each number at a glance.
CHART VIEW: one chart for the whole squad on every page, laid over the cards. Who did how much, in each player's colour.
Switch at any time with Triangle (controller) or C (keyboard, also F10). The button for it sits next to the game's own MINIMIZE STATS prompt. Option View: Chart makes every debrief open as the chart.
SEVEN PAGES
- SUMMARY: the game's own rows plus Kills per Minute, Heavy Kills, Kill Streak, Best Life (most kills between two deaths), Most Killed, Top Weapon, Stratagem Share, Damage Dealt, Damage Taken and Self-Inflicted Deaths. Chart: every row one bar split between the players.
- ENEMIES: every enemy type killed, grouped Heavy / Medium / Chaff, with its share of your kills. Chart: a mosaic of everything the squad killed, a tile per enemy type with who killed how many.
- WEAPONS: the game's own kills per weapon, throwable, stratagem, drone, vehicle and Exosuit, with a total per group. Kills the game credits to no weapon (Hellpod landings, telefrags, the environment) are OTHER, so the page adds up to your KILLS. Chart: the squad's deadliest weapons, each in its owner's colour.
- BREAKDOWN: which enemies each weapon killed, with the weapon's accuracy. Chart: a weapon x enemy grid, each cell in the colour of the player who made most of those kills.
- CASUALTIES: who or what killed you and how many times: an enemy, a teammate (by name) or yourself, with what (your own grenade, gun, mine or stratagem). Deaths the game gives no cause for (a fall, drowning) are Unknown Cause. Chart: every death a square, coloured by its cause.
- TIMELINE (new): kills over the mission. Chart: a lane per player with kills each minute and a red line where they died, plus the squad's lane with its busiest minute.
- OBJECTIVES (new): the mission's primary and optional objectives, done or not (the game's own state, under the game's own names), Helldivers extracted (N of M) and each player's own extraction, objective targets and enemy structures destroyed by each player, terminals completed. Chart: extraction tiles, objective segments and the targets split by player.
AWARDS, BESTS, LANGUAGES
Awards. Every Helldiver can earn one award per mission, the one they lead the squad in by the widest margin: Exterminator / Scrap Maker / Squid Hunter, Heavy Hitter, Mech Pilot, Sentry Master, Eagle Ace, Orbital Caller, Sharpshooter, Stratagem Maestro, Brawler, Sample Hunter, Marathon, Meat Shield, Stim Addict, Lifeline, Untouchable... and Friendly Fire Champion or Clumsy Patriot for the ones who earned those. Awards come only from the statistics the game shares with every player, so everyone with the mod sees the same awards. The award is the first SUMMARY row, drawn as a badge in the game's hazard stripes.
Personal bests. Beat your own record in kills, kills per minute, heavy kills, kill streak, best life, melee kills, damage or accuracy and the row shows a small red NEW BEST.
Your language. English and the game's 13 other languages (German, French, Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese), picked from your Steam language. Enemy, weapon, structure and objective names are the game's own words in each language. To force a language, put its code (for example de) in language.txt in the mod's data folder.
Settle it at the debrief. A teammate's Orbital Barrage on your head is listed under their name, so your friend can't blame it on the bugs anymore.
CONTROLS
Results screen (Square / Tab shows the stats as usual):
- Turn the page: L1 / R1 or Q / E
- Scroll: D-pad / sticks or W / S, mouse wheel
- List / chart view: Triangle or C (also F10)
Your own buttons: Options > Controls > MODS > Mission Debrief (with Mod Bindings Menu). DualSense / DualSense Edge (USB or Bluetooth) and Xbox-compatible controllers work out of the box; the controller is only read, never written to.
SETTINGS
With Mod Options Menu: ESC > MODS > Mission Debrief. Turn any page, group or row on or off, pick the view the debrief opens in, show the game's own results screen untouched, or turn off All Cards Together to give each card its own page and scroll (L2 / R2 or A / D pick the card).
HOST AND GUEST
- The same numbers on every screen: the game's rows, the kills per weapon, the awards and the objectives come from the game's own state, which every player's game shares.
- Which enemy each kill was (ENEMIES, BREAKDOWN) and what killed you come from what your own game saw. Their totals always match the game's; on a guest's screen more kills can be listed as OTHERS.
- Only your screen changes, and the mod sends nothing over the network. Your squadmates don't need it.
- Safe: runs only on the game build it was made for (Steam 25480438) and checks every game location it uses first. After a game update it switches itself off until it is updated. No gameplay, network or save changes.
- Light: a few hundredths of a millisecond per frame.
- Every mission is saved as text and JSON in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\MissionDebrief\reports.
- The mod never guesses: enemy types, weapons and causes it cannot identify are OTHERS / OTHER / Unknown Cause. In very fast multi-kills with several weapons a kill can land on the wrong enemy type. Lasers have no hit stats in the game, so they show no accuracy.
- Some objectives (mostly Illuminate ones) have no name in the data available to the mod yet; they show as a plain objective.
- Bingus Shared Loader v18 or newer, kept last in the load order.
- Recommended: Mod Options Menu (settings). Optional: Mod Bindings Menu (own buttons).
- Import the ZIP in HD2 Arsenal or HD2 Mod Manager, enable, Purge, then Deploy.
Please report bugs in the Bugs tab and attach MissionDebrief.log and last_mission.txt from %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\MissionDebrief. They help a lot.

- Chart view: one chart for the whole squad on every page (SUMMARY bars split between the players, ENEMIES mosaic, WEAPONS ranking, BREAKDOWN grid, CASUALTIES squares, TIMELINE lanes, OBJECTIVES). Triangle / C (also F10) switch between the list and the chart, on the results screen and on the ship; the button sits next to the game's MINIMIZE STATS. New option View: Chart and binding "Switch Mission Debrief View (List / Chart)".
- List view bars: small bars before the rows: on SUMMARY against the squad's highest, on ENEMIES and WEAPONS each row's share of your kills.
- New page OBJECTIVES: primary and optional objectives, done or not, under the game's own names; Helldivers extracted (N of M) and each player's extraction; objective targets and enemy structures destroyed by each player; terminals completed.
- New page TIMELINE: kills over the mission.
- Languages: the game's 13 other languages, from your Steam language (or language.txt). Enemy, weapon, structure and objective names in the game's own words.
- Awards are the same on every screen: only from the statistics the game shares. New: Heavy Hitter, Mech Pilot, Sentry Master, Eagle Ace, Orbital Caller, Brawler, Sample Hunter, Marathon, Meat Shield, Stim Addict. Clumsy Patriot from the game's own counter. Awards by enemy type and Streak Machine removed (each game sees those differently). Helldivers who left are not counted; ties are settled the same way everywhere.
- The award badge follows the game's own show / minimize stats action, so it works with rebound keys too.
- SUMMARY rows line up across the cards (a dash row where a player has no award).
- Own buttons from Mod Bindings Menu replace that action's default buttons completely (no more double page turns), and L1 + R1 can no longer switch itself off.
- Long names are cut on whole letters in every language.
- 0.9.0
- Award badge on the results screen: the award row is drawn as a badge in the game's hazard stripes (option "Award Badge On Results Screen"). On the ship the award is the first SUMMARY row, like on the results screen.
- Names: your own name from Steam instead of "YOU"; teammates' names are read from their card on the results screen, also for players who are not your Steam friends or play on another platform.
- A teammate who left before the results screen keeps their pages (no more "NO DATA FOR THIS PLAYER").
- All Cards Together: scrolling goes on until the longest card ends, not the shortest.
- Self-Inflicted Deaths follow the CASUALTIES page, and only count what you really did to yourself (your grenade, mine, sentry or stratagem). A death the game puts on your own body while you were just shooting is Unknown Cause.
- Deaths by enemy emplacements and turrets are named (HMG Emplacement, Cannon Turret...). The Impaler is recognized, its tentacles too.
- Shares under 1% show one decimal (one Bile Titan in 651 kills is 0.2%, not 0%).
- Ship debrief: long labels are cut to fit their row.
- 0.7.0: Kills per Minute, Heavy Kills, Kill Streak, Best Life, Stratagem Share; awards; personal bests (NEW BEST); shares of your kills on ENEMIES and WEAPONS.
- 0.6.x: the debrief again on the ship (L1 + R1 / F9); self-inflicted deaths by what did it; yellow only for the best of the squad; WEAPONS from the game's own statistics; teammates by name.
- 0.5.5: the game's own scrollbar on each card; one text size everywhere. 0.5.4: first public release.
