    • tagged shots include timecode and result (make/miss)

    • live display of total makes, attempts and shooting percentage

    • export/save as a CSV file

    • import CSV file once video of game/session is added to ShootXP Video Library

      • activity type

      • start & end times

      • notes

      • constraints used in the activity

        • start & end times (if not applied for the whole activity)

        • specific player(s) the constraint was applied to (if any)

        • observations

    • view history of how/when constraints have been used in activities (with links to load and play corresponding section of video)

  • Badges (major enhancement)

    • given above, badges can now be awarded for specific or all activities, along with specific/all shooters (as was previously the case)

    • badges can be created and achievement determined based on "assigner" discretion, rather than automatically computed from shot data

    • the 'Player Details' (editor) popup window now also displays the badges the player has achieved, and players can be assigned "general" badges here (as opposed to being assigned for a specific activity)
