Description
This mod changes the defense bonuses of cover to be an extremely more reliable defensive measure for any using it, prompting additional risk and advanced tactics to subvert the opponent on the battlefield while discouraging reliance upon random number generation.

Vanilla Value VS. Modded Value:
Low Cover: 20 -> 50
High Cover: 40 -> 100

There is also an aim angle feature integrated into this mod, allowing better aim against covered opponents the closer the attacker is to flanking them.

I have not tested this for vanilla XCOM 2, but theoretically it should work fine with or without the WOTC expansion.
This mod should be compatible with anything, as it is only a basic ini edit.

Enjoy, Commander.

if the soldier was on the same wall parallel to the soldier that's weird. flanking extends normally to a 180 degree area from the cover facing the enemy

So this is kinda weird sometimes? i had a soldier and enemy inside a train. They were almost adjacent to eachother but somehow both of them got full cover bonus from the walls they were next to

Based on what i'm seeing now you can also change cover values on this mod's config too for a more reliable outcome.

you can change cover value in "DefaultGameCore.ini" located at "XCOM 2\XComGame\Config"
I did it but for some reason it didn't work for me (probably because of some other mod i have) so i'm installing this mod too. thank you.

I just read the desc again
"This mod should be compatible with anything, as it is only a basic ini edit."
Isn't that mean we are allow to adjust the number to whatever we want?

Didn't try the mod yet.
I'm looking at people asking for the tweak for defense of low cover and high cover at X value.
I mean, is this mod NOT configurable the value? Can u make it so?

Any chance we could get a version with slightly reduced cover bonuses? maybe something like 40/80 instead of 50/100

@Nazareth
I think there is already a mod that uses those values if I remember right. Give GnaRs tactics mods a look and see if they are what you seek.
