It's probably good to station soldiers in your havens until they are fully liberated / have the max-ed out 13 rebels / absolutely sure there are zero infiltrators left in your haven. Perhaps even all of them! That's what I do, anyways.

It depends on the armor; I'd have to look up how they did it on Sparks. We moved a bunch of stuff to the inis but didn't get everything. Well I see the vanilla and Alien Hunters armors exposed in XGC.ini, and some vests and Alien Hunter armor ability settings in LW_Overhaul.ini (great job, btw!) no...

As far as I know class doesn't matter. Only rank does. A soldier liaison provides a flat bonus to Recruit. This is so havens with zero rebels still can be saved with enough time. After that, each soldier rank provides a multiplier. Officer ranks too, I think. Bonus helps with recruiting and detectin...

Unfortunately, this doesn't regenerate between missions. The fix in 1.1 adds the points in an ability attached to their armor, iirc. Oh no! Guess I didn't know about that interaction :( And IIRC there is no way to edit armor values without the SDK, as they aren't exposed in the configs to my knowle...

From XComLW_Overhaul.ini ; Repeatedable permanent improvement projects; the increased cost for repeating is in DGD.ini +TechTable=(TechTemplateName="BasicResearchProject", ProvingGround=false, ResearchPointCost = 5200, ModPointsToCompleteOnly=true) +TechTable=(TechTemplateName="BasicE...

Really innovative. Why bother with a Sharpshooter-Shinobi and a less than 100% to hit/kill the VIP when you can just snipe using a rocket :P. I assume you need Rank 1 Fire In The Hole as you'll be blue-moving out of LOS blocking cover, and Javelin Rockets if you are actually legit trying to snipe th...

2) Yes. If you just had a major critical failure and are in severe need of rookies, set all your rebels to "Recruit" and station a Soldier liason for added bonus. As of LW 1.0 each new recruit has a 33% chance of being a soldier you can recruit from the Armory.

Go to LW2's mod config folder, open XComGameData_CharacterStats.ini

Search for SPARK and there you'll find the relevant entries.

Hopefully, it is "very very soon" again

This is a cool idea. Perhaps instead of recruiting soldiers from the avenger, you have a button next to the manage haven UI to recruit rebels directly for XCOM (with supplies of course). For every mission they personally go through, such as Rendezvous or RealityMachina's Rioting VIP assassination, t...

Honesty I'd say that this comes part and parcel with every soldier running Not Created Equally. With every god sniper with +10 aim over regular soldiers, you have one who can't hit the broad side of a barn. They CAN build into a pretty good concealed support spotter unit. Holotarget up to thrice a t...

1. There is some interesting discussion going on above about the combat knife. I, too thought it was rather useless, but in my opinion, it shouldn't be any other way. The gunner's primary means of effecting the battlefield should be, as its namesake, its big beefy gun. Any other notable Secondary wo...

So I dug through the .ini files and actually found what I think affects the Infiltration rates. They're perks, as I suspected. So I'll just leave this around in case anyone else wants to do the same thing I am doing. In XComLW_InfiltrationSettings.ini ;-----------------------------------------------...

Hello! I am wondering how to set custom Infiltration rates for different classes. Currently figuring out how to do this from the Playable Aliens and Allies Unknown mods. From my understanding, classes like the Technical produce greater base Infiltration time, whereas the Shinobi produce less. Is the...

Just install this mod, go to the config file for the mod and add in "+CarryableCharacterGroups="AdventDrone"", and boom!

Do the Dark Event projects and thus missions to stop them always spawn in continents I am in contact with, like in Vanilla? Or will I end up missing some of them no matter what?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=688405905 The devs have stated that they are not planning to include any additional optional tweaks into the main long war experience. You can mostly just opt to tweak it yourself using the extensive included configurable .inis, or install what...

Wow!

Alright! Good job guys!

An interesting thing I noticed when browsing the .ini is that the free reflex actions given to aliens are not guaranteed. IIRC on Veteran the chance is 20% and on Commander and Legend the chance is 33%. So if you're having a situation where the entire pod takes flanking shots on you on reveal... Tha...

For the issue that you mention about the suppression reaction fire not going off if the enemy retreats out of LOS, this is vanilla behavior that can be fixed with this mod ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=628207417 ). Make sure you run through the .ini and turn off tweaks tha...

Oh no!

The second half is a valid question though

So I've browsed many a forum thread and Reddit discussion and many from the team have remarked of several bugs being patched out in an upcoming 1.1 patch. Updates to the psi system have also been announced to come with this patch. Any word on how soon till this patch will be rolled out? And how will...

Exactly. Pisses me off so much sometimes, especially because of XCOM2's wonky step-out mechanics. Lost me many a soldier. Thankfully, aiming angles can all be configured in the base XCOM2 ini. (With regards to your sniper screenshot, you can increase the tile range of when aiming angles can apply!) ...
