MMOcenaries Standalone: iM

Description
A standalone version of Jason "infiniteMotion" Caliber from my (unreleased) MMOcenaries 2.0 mod.

I made this mod as an example to refer to when following a tutorial I made for creating your very own custom AIM merc! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LVk8UbrP_Ld1w-pIEPGGTZVI0HquMcriBUR_aweMlp8/edit

iM is a (WIP) fully custom merc who comes with a full set of unique voice lines by a real person (CW: I swear a lot), a custom Weapon (iM4 Carbine) with a custom Modification available (M26 MASS underbarrel shotgun), and a custom Perk (Rampage).

He's a bit OP without being too over-the-top: a 550-point stat spread (the average for Recruit-tier mercs is 564), CQC Training, Bullet Hell, and the Rampage perk (+8% damage per kill, stacks up to 5 times) make him lethal in close quarters, but smart positioning and movement are vital because he can't quite take it like he dishes it out. Additionally, the Rampage perk loses up to 16% of its damage bonus every turn he goes without making a kill, to balance it against Nails' perk which gives +20% damage after one kill and remains until the end of combat.

Big huge mega ultra thank you to HG_Feanor, rato, Archimedes/SkunkXL, Toni, Witzzard, and many others on the Jagged Alliance Discord without whom this would not be possible! No seriously, I'm just a QA Tester -- I have no transferrable skills, but I'm working on it!

I fixed it! The underbarrel shotgun code item was one of the oldest things in the mod this guy came from, so I never bothered to look at it... 1.4 broke a number of mods' code by requiring them to be force-loaded using an OnMsg.DataLoaded() hook.

I have no idea how Custom Settings was getting around it, but oh well! The mod should be working now without any dependencies!

Wow, what a shame... here in my game, Custon Settings crashes the game right at the beginning, so if it's not updated there's no way to use this Mod anymore. But I liked your idea, it looks really good. Good luck with the development. Thanks.

Ah, yes, this does require Custom Settings to be installed. For some reason, the code which enables the underslung shotgun modification doesn't work unless CS is present (which is SUPER weird; trying to figure out where the dependency is).

I mentioned it in the Change Notes but I'll put it in the mod description to make sure everyone knows! I and many others are still using Custom Settings even though it's very broken at the moment. >_>;

Hello. I receive a warning that your Mod needs another Mod, "Custon Settings" to work, but this is not mentioned in your description. That's right, I mean, is it really necessary? Thanks.
Note: At the moment, the "Custon Settings" Mod is not working with the latest update of the Game, 1.4 and it seems that it will not be updated, as it was not updated even for 1.3.
