[WOTC] Compact Perks For Armory

Description
What is this?
This mod makes a more compact viewing area of a units perks in the main armoury.
It combines PCS, Traits and Perks all into one panel, so you no longer need to switch between them.

Features
  • Compact grid layout
  • PCS, Traits and Perks all in one panel
  • PCS icon has Fitted, Open and Locked states
  • PCS icon works with Coloured PCS Icons
  • Bad traits are coloured red, Good traits (from More Traits ) are coloured green
  • Normal Perks are Cyan, PsiPerks are Purple
  • Mouse-over Tooltip showing name and description
  • Clicking an icon brings up detailed info
  • Default layout can show 54 icons before needing to scoll
  • Scrolls by mousewheel when hovering over
  • Works in CI, RPGO and LWOTC
  • Hides the old panel
  • Old Traits/Abilities Swap button does nothing

Config
Config is pretty basic.
Just the sizes and position.

You can decide what DataSet to show in the config.
The default is to show PCS, Traits and Perks.

Option to respect perks with custom Ability Icon Color overrides.
Off by default.

Has an optional MCO for UIAbilityPopup that just makes the Promotion Screen Perk Popup the same as the one from clicking the Armoury Perks.
Why did I do this? The base game popup has a displayed text limit.
Mine gives a scrollbar when the limit is reached.
Can be disabled if it conflicts with anything.

Known Issues
Minimal Controller Support, you can click the RightStick to pull up the detailed information, but will be unable to get the hover-over tooltips

Some perks have Promotional Pop-up text that includes the Long Description. This mod pre-fixes the Long Description text to the Promo-text as well. There is a simple filter to check if the text is not already there, but it might not catch all cases. There might be some cases of duplicated text. This is only a localisation error and does not affect game play.

Credits And Thanks

Is there any way or a chance for someone to make an weapon compact stats and armor compact stats ?

This is the ONLY mod on all of Nexus and Steam Workshop that gives the player a way to access tooltips for non-skills (negative traits and bond effects) in the Armory when using a controller. I've fought this game for a month trying to find an easy method to see what exactly some negative effects do and remind myself what the higher tier bond traits do. There's literally no way to do this with a controller. You can only see tips for the skills bought at level-up, and you end up just googling everything. What a ridiculous oversight.

For this reason alone, I thank you so much Mr. Rusty.

Should still be working.

There seems to be an issue with this and the MoreTraits mod for some people, but I struggled to replicate it before the festive season and can't look further into it until the 4th-ish when I return home...

This one still working for folks? My game crashes whenever I view a soldier in the armory with this mod enabled.

Just finished a campaign with about 685 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.

Is it possible to have the negative traits bring up the quote that pop up when first soldier gets one?
