[WotC] I'm the Commander here

Description
Background
Pure frustration over your beginning soldiers getting the worst Trainingcenter ability combinations while some random dude you got as a reward from a Councilmission has all the good ones?

Don't worry no more, as you are the Commander here this mod will let you choose any eligable ability for your soldiers to your likings for a little amount of AP of course after you build the Trainingcenter.

Extension Mod
This mod [WotC] I'm the Commander here extension will add more abilities for herosoldiers to roll naturally.
Check the mod-page for more details. (Note: This feature was earlier incorporated into this mod, but I decided to move it to a seperate mod keeping this mods functions cleaner.)

Mod config files

XComImTheCommanderHere.ini
Main-config file for this mod, see the config itself for further explonations on what the settings do.

XComClassData.ini
I included this to enable Sparks having Trainingcenter abilities and remove some abilities which are nonsense from the selection choice like Deep Cover. Also introduced AP to Sparks on promotion.

XComGameData.ini
You can adjust the number of how many TC abilities any soldier gets. Defaultsetting is still 4 and setting it 7 or above will break this mod and your game.

Compatibility
  • Works with any promotion screen (default,new,community)
  • Don't use this mod WotC: Sparks with AWC Abilities in conjunction with this one as its features are already incorporated
  • If u play with RPGO u don't need this mod.
  • Does not work in conjuction with WOTC Richards Hero Classes Rework This mod will let you do everything that mod does and even more.
  • This mod needs valid soldierclasses to work properly. If another mod let's you change classes midcampain and does not do everything correctly chances are this mod will not work for that specific soldier.
  • For LWoTC you need to set xLWOTC from = false to = true inside XComImTheCommanderHere.ini to make it work properly.

Gamepad support
  • to "click" the respec button he must be visible and then you open the console and type: ClickRespecButtonByConsole
  • DPAD: UP+DOWN will let you cycle through the left side choosing the ability you wanna respec (purple/psionic colored)
  • DPAD: LEFT+RIGHT OR R1+R2 will let you cycle through the middlescreen choosing the new ability (yellow colored)
  • A for XBOX OR X for PS4 Controller will accept the choice, B or O will close the screen
  • Use this mod RS for respecc for opening the respec window with a gamepad

Same Mod for other iterations of the game

FAQ
  • Everything works midcampagin.
  • if you find yourself only being able to respec the first ability plz read what I wrote under gamepad support as it describes how this mod works
  • See the change notes for what is new and has changed.
  • If you go back from LWotC to standard X-Com 2 don't forget to set xLWotC to false.
  • RPGO players do not need this mod.

Before making a comment about a "bug" or a "feature" not working ask yourself:
  • Did I read the description of this mod?
  • Did I look at the pictures of this mod?
  • Has my question recently been answered in the comment section?
  • If you make a comment about a bug be as detailed as you can. Sentences like "it's not working" won't enable me to solve any problem.
  • If you need extenisve support feel free to contact me on Discord: Dare#0357
  • Very technical and foremost individual problems should be asked on Discord

Permission
One may use any of my code as he sees fit as long as appropiate credit is given.

Hey, check if all the decks are in the config. Only thing I can think of.

Hello, experiencing compatibility issues with LWOTC soldiers/abilities. An assault class in my campaign doesn't have access to perks that they should have (ie implacable)

RPGO has this mods functionality incorporated.

What does it mean by if you have RPGO enabled, you dont need it?
RustyDios 9 Jun @ 9:35am 
Awesome news, glad to hear that is was the thing I thought it might be, and the fix was simple to do. :)
Dark 9 Jun @ 8:46am

Upsi I deleted Rusties comment by accident :( (Wanted to delete mine cuz of typos)
Dare  [author] 9 Jun @ 8:18am 
@Dark I've uploaded the change according to RustyDios. Lemme know if it's fixed. Added RustyDios to credits as he helped to improve this mode more than once by now.

@Dare Like a example - https://steamproxy.net/profiles/76561198016521137/screenshot/2444971801219432909/ - near percent just a blank. Here text from ability - "Your gear includes layers of extra padding and blast plates, granting a bonus point of Armor and <Ability:BlastPadding/>% less damage from explosive attacks."
