Switching Abilities

[Mr_Shadow]

Hi everyone who is reading this. Is there a way to swap abilities for example shadowstep with infighter or shredder with center mass.
Also, I found the file LW_Overhaul in Localization. I saw that you can edit abilities, but there are numbers in front of them. Are the numbers supposed to be the place of the ability in the trees?

XcomClassData.ini holds the perk trees. You can, indeed, simply cut & paste certain abilities around and have them function correctly solely with that file. Just take the whole line of, for instance, "(AbilityName="CenterMass", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_PrimaryWeapon)," and transpose it elsewhere. The weapon slot info is important to the abilities themselves, though, so make sure you bring that change along with the abilityname part.

Also, the Localization stuff is simply names and tooltip info and the like. They don't have an actual relation to the function of a skill, those're usually buried in the scripts and UPKs. If an ability has a function called to within the config folder and related .inis, though, those are changeable. For instance, XComLW_SoldierSkills.ini has a line for Chain Lightning's cooldown, aptly named CHAIN_LIGHTNING_COOLDOWN. You can change that from 6 to whatever your mind desires.
