[WOTC] Hero Armor Equality

Description
This mod gives the plated/powered versions of the faction hero armors an additional utility slot.

Moreover, Tactical Rigging has been revamped to function like Deep Pockets from XCOM: Enemy Within, granting the soldier an extra use of every utility item in their inventory.

Hopefully, this should prevent your Reapers from being unable to use utility items for the entire duration of the game as result of a poor random ability deck roll, and should allow Templars to compete with Skirmishers in terms of battlefield utility.

If you want SPARKs to have a utility slot as well, set SPARK_UTILITY_SLOT to true in XComHeroArmorEquality.ini.

This mod works both mid-campaign and mid-tactical.

@Nautilus It should work mid-campaign, last time I tested.

Does this mod need a campaign restart or it works in mid-campaign?

@RockSmacker Unfortunately, yes, that is how it works. If a soldier already had Tactical Rigging before this mod was installed, then they will retain the extra utility slot bonus regardless of the armor they're using (meaning old soldiers could wear the base armor and still have +1 slot). However, this means they will also not gain an extra utility slot from an wearing an upgraded armor, like plated/powered armor.

Only new soldiers with Tactical Rigging will get an additional utility slot from upgraded armor. This means that if two soldiers with Tactical Rigging, one new and one old, wear an upgraded armor type, both will have +1 utility slot (relative to their minimum number of utility slots).

So the Reaper doesn't get the additional utility slot with powered armor if he already had Tactical Rigging before installing this mod? That's what just happened to me and it's a big bummer :( my other heroes and SPARK got the slot but not Reaper who previously had Tactical Rigging. So the Reaper has only 1 slot.
