More Breakthroughs

Adds 14 new breakthroughs to the game. (See full list below.) In addition, armor breakthroughs are now also applied to the alien hunter armors.

Works on existing and new campaigns.

Should be compatible even without Shen's Last Gift DLC or the Alien Hunters DLC. (The SPARK breakthroughs shouldn't show up.)

No class overrides.

IN CASE OF A CRASH:
-If this mod is causing your game to crash because of an update I made, look for XComMoreBreakthroughs.ini and change the value of bReloadNewBreakthroughs to true. This will reload all all the breakthroughs I created and will fix the cause of the crash.

Extras:
-Added an ini setting to remove all Avenger-related breakthroughs. Defaults to false. Use at your own risk.

Available Localizations:

Known issues:
-Multiple armor breakthroughs that affect a single armor are displayed as "+1 +1" instead of "+2"

Known issues NOT caused by this mod:
-Claymore damage is shown as +1 when the conventional weapons breakthrough is researched but there is no damage bonus applied
-Psi Amp damage is shown as +1 when the conventional/magnetic/plasma weapons breakthroughs are researched but there is no damage bonus applied
-Armor breakthroughs show as +1 to HP/Mobility/Dodge/Armor but only actually adds to HP

Features that still need to be implemented:
-Write creative descriptions for the breakthroughs instead of using copy-pasted ones. If anyone wants to write some up, let me know.
