[WOTC] Sawed Off Shotgun Overhaul

This mod rebalances LW2 Sawed Off Shotguns to behave more like traditional Pistols. Instead of being "one hit wonder" cheese that ruins the day of 1 or 2 strong enemies at melee range, they become more traditional sidearms for close range engagements.

• Damage is reduced to: 3-5 (+2 Crit), 4-6 (+2 Crit), 5-7 (+3 Crit).
  
• Removed built in bonuses of +15 Crit Chance.
  
• Increased effective range and removed the range limit.
  
• Primary Sawed Off still has two Ammo and now can be Reloaded normally, as any other weapon.
  
• Secondary Sawed Off now has infinite ammo, as any other sidearm.
  
• Sawed Off Shotguns still cannot be used with Fan Fire or Faceoff.
  
• Both Primary and Secondary can use Pistol Overwatch.
  
• Both can now deal some Environment Damage on a miss.
  
• Sawed Off Shotguns cannot install Weapon Upgrades.
  
• Sawed Off Shotgun Engineering Schematic is removed. They are now upgraded alongside "normal" Shotguns.
  
• (Vanilla) Rangers and Skirmishers can now equip both Primary and Secondary Sawed Off Shotguns. Sharpshooters and Grenadiers can equip Secondary.

• X2 WOTC Community Highlander is required.
  
• [WOTC] LW2 Secondary Weapons is required (duh).
  
• [WOTC] Iridar's Weapon Skin Replacer is required.

• Primary Secondaries + [WOTC] LW2 Primary Secondaries - this mod applies changes to Primary variants of Sawed Off Shotguns. Note: LW2 Primary Secondaries requires old Primary Secondaries and is not compatible with the new True Primary Secondaries.
  
• [WOTC] Dual Wielded Pistols 2.0 - this mod allows to Dual Wield Sawed Off Shotguns, if you're subscribed to LW2 Primary Secondaries. Note: you can only dual wield sawed-off shotguns, you cannot dual wield a sawed-off + pistol. You can still use a pistol primary and sawed-off secondary on the same soldier separately.
  
• [WOTC] Open Class Weapon Restrictions - this mod will allow mod-added classes that use Pistols to also use Sawed Off Shotguns in the same inventory slots. Classes that normally use Shotguns, will be able to use Sawed Offs in both Primary and Secondary slots.

This mod is intended to make Sawed Off Shotguns more accessible as a generic sidearm to classes that have not been specifically built around using Sawed Off Shotguns. As the result, classes that were built for Sawed Off Shotguns become a mess.

For example, LW2 Rangers retain their Point Blank and Both Barrels abilities, however since Secondary Sawed Off now has infinite ammo, Pump Action perk doesn't do anything anymore, and there's no reason to ever use Point Blank over Both Barrels.

• This mod is safe to add or remove during a campaign in progress.
  
• [WOTC] Iridar's Akimbo Class - compatible, but there's not a lot of synergy. Dual Sawed Offs are hilariously overpowered with the Scrapper build. Therefore Akimbo is not allowed to equip Sawed Off Shotguns by default, if you wish, you can enable them by editing XComClassData.ini in either mod.
  Chimera Classes - incompatible, breaks some of the Gunner's perks.

This mod is highly configurable through configuration files located in:
