Re: Perk Compatibility Long Watch and Guardian.

Guardian has a list of abilities it works with that isn't exposed to be edited via INI, the list only includes the vanilla rifle/cannon/shotgun overwatch and the pistol overwatch.

Re: How do soldier abilities at Squaddie work?

And where is that combatives code set? Is it possible to combine 2 perks like that into 1 using the config files? Sadly, no. You've to use code to create a new ability and then add the others as AditionalAbilities There's no limit. The only limit is that only 3 abilities will show up when you mouse...

Re: [Request] Change FireControl Abilities to be an Effect.

Is ModifyEarnedSoldierAbilities a console command? How is it used? No, that is an event a mod can respond to via code, it is triggered whenever something asks what abilities the soldier has. it was added by long war.

[Request] Change FireControl Abilities to be an Effect.

I humbly request that X2Condition_RequiredToHitChance be changed to look for FireControl25, FireControl50 and FireControl75 as effects instead of soldier abilities, so other modders can make stuff that allow for toggling those effects at player discretion. I realize that this would require changing ...

Re: The infamously UN-Explained Load-Order tricks.

Mod Updates don't affect load order, only the subscribe action by clicking on the green subscribe button on the mod page.

Seens we got confirmation that local mods can't override steam mods, so it looks like I'll need to make a private workshop mod for my needs. :cry:

Re: The infamously UN-Explained Load-Order tricks.

I'm not even going to pretend I know anything about this black magic. What I do know is that the alternate launcher reorders the lines on a ini file (I think it's XComModOptions? the property name is ActiveMods) I've no idea if that actualy has something to do with the load order.

Re: Utility items weight

Did you check if your custom mod is loaded after LW2? And that you're using the +configOption=newConfig rather than outright overwriting the previous one?

It sounds like you have Grimy's loot mod installed. In order to make use of it, yes, there's another mod called mod everything. That said, those mods don't really fit with the spirit of Long War 2, as Grimy's mod provides numerous items that you can sell for cash, and you can end up running a super...

You sure that isn't from the -bg- mod on the workshop that adds support for multiple spark classes? JL stated before that they didn't plan to do multiple classes for sparks.

Re: Why I don't like Timers (and a suggestion)

Because, as every single mission states at the halfway point, they know that the SKYRANGER is in the area. So they are sending INTERCEPTORS (not troop ships) to shoot it down. They know this because while your soldiers can generally hide on the ground, your huge troop transport cannot. This is why ...

Re: Adding Plating to Sparks?

the stat you're looking for is eStat_ShieldHP, you can try to add it the same way you add armor:


CharacterBaseStats[eStat_ShieldHP]=X


Where X is however much you want to add. From the change log, the next release will add that too, so you can modify the added value if you want.
