[WOTC] EU Aim Rolls

Description
Separates the rolls for hit, crits and dodge.

** Added LW style perfect information, enable via config **
** Ignores existing config for squadsight penalty and heigh advantage bonuses in your xcom config, you may customize these options in the mod's config instead which also provides additional options for customization (SteamApps\workshop\content\268500\1123516056\Config\XComAimRoll.ini) **

Gone are the days of troopers having 100% crit against people in heavy cover + aid protocol, since in XCOM 2, hits, crits and dodges shares a single roll, so if the crit chance is higher than hit chance, it always crits as long as the target can't dodge, dodge is less affected because the dodge roll is calculated based on dodge stat * hit chance.

In short: By default 10% hit 10% crit means 10% of your shot will crit, 0% normal hit, 90% miss.
With this mod 10% hit 10% crit means 1% of shot will crit, 9% normal hit, 90% miss.

By the default behaviour of this mod, rolling a crit will not roll for dodge, this is customizable in ini config. Enabling HYBRID_CRIT_DODGE will instead roll for both crits and dodge and results in a normal hit if both succeeded.

WARNING: As any XCOM 2 mods do, saving a game with a mod enabled will cause the save game only work if and only if the mod is enabled, since this is a tweaking mod using existing templates there shouldn't be missing content after disabling the mod so for now you'll have to use this mod to fix it if you decide to disable the mod http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=619141883

Problems? Follow this guide first! it may solve your problems (applies to all mods) http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=625230005

Compatibility Note:
This mod overwrites X2AbilityToHitCalc_StandardAIm, X2AbilityToHitCalc_StandardMelee and may not be compatible with other mods that overwrites the same class. [Totally not compatible with No Crit Dodging, choose only one]
Custom abilities that uses default.SimpleStandardAim will also not benefit from this change. (I can't override default.SimpleStandardAim) But you can add their template name into the INI to force this behaviour.

Hi! I'm trying to get to the bottom of the conflict between this mod and Extended Information. Is this problem solved? My testing doesn't show any error. Both Extended informaion and EU show same numbers when SHOW_CHANCES are true. Also Extended Information picks up any custom number from HEIGHT_MODIFIER. Thanks
@Dan I'm pretty sure there's an old beta (but still the newest version) of extended information on the xcom modders discord that allegedly addresses this issue.

I personally use it and I think it works fine even though im not payying attention to the numbers. RustyDios mentioned it in Extended info's modpage.

I'm very glad I found this mod. Why is this mod not in the top? I still remember how I burned when the gatekeeper killed with a shot my favorite grenadier-colonel through full indestructible cover, inflicting huge critical damage on him from a fairly large distance.

Is this compatible with Damage Calculation Tweaks? Sorry if this has been asked.

Honestly I think that the one roll makes sense. If you are in high cover than your exposure is mostly your head peaking out. I am still intrigued by this mod though.

So THAT'S why troopers are always fucking critting my guys through high cover
Holy shit
What kind of chimpanzee there thought that putting it in one roll was a smart idea

@Dan that cannot be fixed per say. The modder of the WOTC - Extended Information! needs to write code to include that.

Great mod ! But there is a compatibility issue with WOTC - Extended Information! .
The flyover showing the hit chances from this other mod do not include the height advantage tweaks from [WOTC] EU Aim Rolls. The %Hit displayed uses the vanilla value for height advantage (+20%).
Any ideas how to have these height tweaks visibles to Extended Information ?

Essential mod. Also, thanks, Jack! Great stuff, adding that to my ini.
