Knox's Proficiency Port: Rocketeer

  • Everyone's mods that mine requires - Literally couldn't exist without them, they are talented modders.

Props on this class, suppression works very well. If the enemy moves the Rocketeer nails the guy, not always the case on some mods, perhaps an ini issue, nevertheless well done, thanks 4 this class. Great job on the re-imagining of the Pharmacist class too.

The issues causing "Unload" and "Suppressing Fire" to not work have been patched, now making the abilities work as intended.

@Tacoaloto "Suppressing Fire" is supposed to grant "Suppression" as an ability. It should be working normally, but I'll make sure to investigate and see if I can discover the issue.

I notice when I try to use the "Suppressing fire" ability, it just shoots and then gives me another action back. Is it because the soldier does not have suppression as an ability?

@FeeL The ASR Patch does not edit "Unload", it fixes the Rocket Launcher abilities, I'll do a quick check to make sure "Unload" is properly set up and release a patch if I figure out the issue.

well i have ASR patch installed but still... "unload" doesnt work for me....just shooting once like normal shot

KnoxAHHHHHHHHHH, would be happy to see more Proficiency classes from you!
As of this one, I like it. Starts out not *that* strong but with ranks and some of the stronger rocket types it really becomes unstoppable.

@eddieGT If you are in it, ask around in the XCOM Modding Discord, people in there might know why you are unable to get the game running.
