Description
Allow for missions to be considered successful, even if you had to evac or otherwise lose all operatives in a mission. The game will also properly track victories and losses under this system, and shouldn't play the wrong music or use the wrong UI elements or play the wrong narrative statements according to what happened.

In other words, a mission type like Neutralize Field Commander or a modded type like my Resistance Operative Workstation mission type will be considered successes if you do the main objective, even if you have to leave afterwards. And like a mission type you normally evacuate from, corpses and bleeding out units are not retrieved by XCOM.

Also alters the Supply Raid/Extraction and Landed UFO mission types so they cause a decrease in income if the mission fails, not a full region disconnect.

There's a ComplexMissionVictories variable in the mod's XComGame.ini, if you wish to only get some of fruits of victory from completing a mission's main objective only.

Conflicts with mods that alter the mission source templates' WasMissionSuccessfulFn function, or the Supply Raid/Extraction and Landed UFO templates' OnFailureFn and OnExpireFn functions. It won't crash but behaviour may be different from what the mod adds.

ComplexMissionVictories will conflict with any mod that alters Guerilla Ops or Retaliations OnSuccessFn in their mission source template.

Is there a chance this mod would be enabled to vanilla?

oh sweet, this fixes an issue I have where unconscious and evacuated Field commanders are not considered "Dead" by the game.

Congratulations. You're a failure.
Oh. I failed, did I?
Yes.
Did I?
Yes.
Did I?
Scout, where is this going?

Game keeps crashing with this mod enabled for some reason

Hey thanks for the amazing mod! I was just wondering if there is a way to prevent a "Flawless" rating from half completing a mission? I'm using this with the mod that gives a bonus for completing a flawless mission and it just feels weird being rewarded for half-arsing the mission haha

is there a way to keep the lose soundtrack? I don't wanna hear the "we did it" track when my squad gets wiped but managed to get the job done first. I want my victory to feel BAD

@Moon Cheese

I’d say no, but in virtue of the fact that most (if not all, not sure) mission types in LWOTC are new ones, while this simply modifies vanilla mission types.

However, most LWOTC mission types require you to EVAC to complete instead of routing the enemy, and those that do require you rout it are the ones where routing it is the whole point of the mission, so Phyrric Victories wouldn’t be needed anyway.

Does it work with long war of the chosen?
