Things dying at the same time when casting through sacrificing creatures.
My understanding of the rules of magic when casting a spell you announce "I am casting this spell, now I will pay for it". Specifically I want to cast a Hexing Squelcher. To pay for it I want to sacrifice my Skirk Prospector and my Pashalik Mons. When I do Mons does not see the Skirk dying, giving me 1 less trigger than I expect to get. The interaction is similar what Krark-Clan Ironworks was doing in modern a bunch of years back. Was this interaction changed? Is it properly put into mtga? If so, how do I make it so that I get both triggers? If not, my suggestion/bug report is that it gets added.

It cannot be done. While paying the costs can be done in any order, you are not sacrificing the creatures to pay costs. You are sacrificing them to generate mana, which is a step before paying. And you have to activate the Prospector one sacrifice at a time. So either Pashalik Mons dies before the Prospector, thus triggering only for itself, or it triggers for the Prospector sacrificing itself but leaving you without a means to sacrifice Pashalik Mons for mana since the Prospector is gone. You cannot make them die at the same time using the Prospector's ability.
