Overwatch Lost Headshots

Description
Lost kills while on Overwatch count as a "Headshot".

After an Overwatch kill, the soldier will get their Overwatch back and will continue making consecutive Overwatch shots as long as they keep getting kills (or until they run out of ammo).

Occasionally the reaction shot animations will play out of order (so you may see a soldier miss, then shoot again for a kill). This is a visual bug with the base game, and does not affect the actual functionality.

100% safe to enable or disable at any time. No overrides. Compatible with all mods. Synergizes well with More Consistent Damage.

This mod has not changed or been updated recently - so there must be something else getting in the way.

For some reason my snipers only ever take a single shot now.

I also noticed an enemy, which in this case was an Armored Viper, got a second Overwatch shot, but not a third, after shooting a Lost, even though it missed.

Yeah, that’s pretty funny. I think they’re pretty new to the game.

By the way, there’s sadly a bug with this mod: if an enemy gets a Headshot because of this mod and, thus, has Overwatch on XCOM’s turn, that Overwatch will never trigger. It did trigger multiple times on the enemy’s turn as the enemy was killing multiple Lost, which is good, but the final Overwatch that remained never worked when it was XCOM’s turn.

I'm curious why ModestEgo would need a mod that exclusively affects the Lost to work without War of the Chosen.

Sorry but I am no longer modding XCOM 2. But seriously - if you don't have WOTC, get it! It doubles the base game content, I can't imagine playing without it. It goes on sale all the time too, you can get it for cheap.

can you make a version of this that doesn't require WoTC?

@Alex Nares Thank you!

My pleasure. Yes it does work for Smart Ovewatch All, but I don't know if it will work with Overwatch Others, although it might. We'll need to try it and see.
