Increase Field Medic Skill Charges!

Post by imn01 »

As the title suggest I want to increase field medic skill charges beyond 2 for equipped medkit. Is it possible through ini edit? I can't find anything in config, I saw field surgeon but no filed medic.

There is an .ini setting for this, but LW doesn't adjust it, so you won't find it in their .inis by default. The game uses vanilla settings unless LW actively changes them. So LW ini settings take priority, as do other changes, but otherwise the game goes off the base .ini.


To make this change, go into LW's XComGameData_SoldierSkills.ini

Find the following lines:
[XComGame.X2Ability_SpecialistAbilitySet]
REVIVAL_PROTOCOL_CHARGES=2

And change it to something like this:
[XComGame.X2Ability_SpecialistAbilitySet]
REVIVAL_PROTOCOL_CHARGES=2
FIELD_MEDIC_BONUS=3

It'll change it to however many extra charges you want it to provide (three, with that example). Don't think you'll even need to adjust the localization for this one, since the number on the tooltip is pulled from the setting, iirc.

Thanks a lot for this quick response. Really appreciate the support. :)
