Not sure if it's possible to be fixed but if you're previewing movement or bodies, you can switch between targets with tab but you can't go back with shift.

for those who only want the corpse location and not the other features.
Inside the config file, will be as below. Self explanatory

+SHOW_BODY_PREVIEW=true
+SHOW_MOVE_PREVIEW=false
+SHOW_LOS_PREVIEW=false

thanks to the Modders for this helpful tool

Get the "Remove Missing Mods" mod to unbind mods from your save

I download this to try it and didnt like it, so I disabled it, and now my save is saying it requires it and doesn't work at all properly. :( Might even have to go all the way back to a save before I installed it, which was miday through the last mission. :(

You can place them at the end. Just need to open up the ini file in the mod and set them to like 2100, 2150 and 2250

My one big gripe is that these are ability buttons. Otherwise a great mod!

It would be great if you could at least place the abilities at the end. Otherwise, good mod!

Thanks, man!

It's in this mod's Config folder.
<Steam>\SteamApps\workshop\content\268500\1123163799\Config

You can find a mod's unique ID from its URL.

The file XComLOSPreview.ini doesn't seem to exist on my config folder. Is there anywhere else I can take a look?
Unorthodoxy 9 jan 2022 om 13:46 
Anyone else grab this just to use the Extract Corpses mod more easily?
Ensais 4 jan 2022 om 13:08 
This mod is genius. I first saw it being used by C-Odd in his season 7 campaign. Helps plan for pesky lost especially. Great work and thanks!

@AwwHEEEALNaw
Try editing XComLOSPreview.ini
AwwHEEEALNaw 12 dec 2021 om 22:45 
is it possible to turn off all buttons but the one that shows enemy movement? Or is there an alternative mod that only does that?

You can change the settings to not scan all levels and the impact won't be as much. Just means you manually need to change the height level you're wanting to see

Oof amazing mod but yeah the lag increase when activated is something...but hard not to carry it around!

Thanks for this very useful mod! I made a Russian localization of the mod, please add it!

it worked, thanks! The icon appeared. But unfortunately I can't see body anyway, even with feature active((( Like if it's not there. If I couldn't see the corpse and sniper rifle...
-bg-  [auteur] 12 mei 2021 om 15:03 
starting it mid mission does not work, however you can force give it to the currently selected soldiers with console command
GiveAbility PreviewLOS
GiveAbility PreviewMovement
GiveAbility PreviewBodyLocation

Hi! I installed the mod but button does not appear!
I tried guide with no luck. I have no other mods.
Maybe there is something to enable mod (I switched on ON in laucher, it is green)?

Now I have 5 turns left and hell a way back to extraction, my sniper lies dead with Chosen's Rifle, Pistol and Lizard Armor. But I can't find damn body!
I just... don't want to loose this stuff. Don't know why. Not if I need it realy, but... you know that feeling.

@Dragon32

Thanks!

@HiawataUK
Yes. I've been using both for ages.
HiawataUK 25 feb 2021 om 6:28 
Is this mod compatible with Gotcha Again? Gotcha Again gives all sorts of useful LOS indicators, but doesn't have enemy movement preview, like this mod, so if I could use both, that would be amazing.

Thanks!

Config options that should hide buttons are not working :( I only want to show corpses button to be visible
-bg-  [auteur] 2 jan 2020 om 17:09 
cone abilities must always emit from where the unit stands, so no.
lyra_tcm 1 jan 2020 om 20:55 
is there plans to add a directional version of this a) to reduce lag and b) so abilites that work in a cone can be checked
ADVENT Avenger 26 aug 2019 om 18:37 
Superb thanks!
-bg-  [auteur] 26 aug 2019 om 17:34 
you can change it in the config file, i have put what numbers most common abilities there as a guide
ADVENT Avenger 25 aug 2019 om 21:51 
Can you change the Toolbar Priority so that all these new abilities are added to the rightmost position? The preview ability lands on "2" which is usually overwatch.
-bg-  [auteur] 4 jun 2019 om 18:00 
it's technically possible but your PC won't be able to handle it. At current range it is already using 80+% CPU on a 3.5GHz core.
Lux Manifestus 4 jun 2019 om 17:00 
Is there a way to make the LOS preview work at longer ranges for squad-sighted targets?
Phantom 5 aug 2018 om 5:00 
I found a little bug, if it is one in WOTC: The preview bodies ability will also show on some map objects for example the little psi transmitters.
-bg-  [auteur] 24 mei 2018 om 14:24 
by clicking the button that says so on the top left
Lux Manifestus 24 mei 2018 om 14:03 
how do I unlock the camera?
-bg-  [auteur] 24 mei 2018 om 11:09 
preview movement camera can be unlocked on the top left of the screen.
Astral Descend 23 mei 2018 om 23:42 
Well things like overwatch all don't show up in armoury, maybe you can take inspiration from there?
Lux Manifestus 23 mei 2018 om 22:36 
Please have a look at the camera after previewing the movement range of enemies. The angles and distance to the map often obscures areas of the map immediately beyond the range of movement of any targeted enemy.
-bg-  [auteur] 23 mei 2018 om 21:02 
because WOTC changed the way it gets the list of ability to better show abilities not from that class, I can patch out an option to hide it.
Astral Descend 23 mei 2018 om 1:32 
For some reason these abilities show up in armory - this didn't happen with vanilla mod. Any idea what could be causing this? It only appears on people who been in combat and doesn't appear in robojumper's squad select

-bg-  [auteur] 7 okt 2017 om 11:29 
never seen that problem, you have other stuffs that breaks it.
NoTomorrow 7 okt 2017 om 2:26 
The mod is great but it bugs the Reaper Remote Start Ability. It no longer detects possible targets for firing.
Tyrant 1 okt 2017 om 18:30 
So if I'm understanding you correctly, a command ability can be added through a mod, but the maximum is 1 total?

If that's the case, a mod could be created where every mod that uses it as a dependency can have their soldier abilities appear on the soldier ability bar whenever this command button is pushed...
-bg-  [auteur] 1 okt 2017 om 18:27 
the command bar is completely hardcoded to take just 1 command ability (the rest of the buttons are not actual abilities)
Tyrant 1 okt 2017 om 18:05 
-bg-, what are the issues with using the command bar at the top right? The more details the better.. sounds like something that would be useful for the Highlander mod to tackle.

Also, as a possible workaround... would the command bar be able to add a way to toggle the abilities from appearing on the soldier ability bar rather than being the abilities themselves?

Hi dude, just translated the localization of your mod into french.
Here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bfl80rbspihg3el/XComGame.fra?dl=0

Excellent! I've missed this one.
Bosmun 30 aug 2017 om 21:14 
i tried it but it moved OW on my guys and that annoyed me enough to not like it LOVE the idea just wish it was able to be specifically placed (no modder will ever do that) but since its not (im pretty sure) ill have to not use it
José 29 aug 2017 om 13:59 
No idea why, but it just crashes for me.
Nasarog 29 aug 2017 om 12:51 
Another awesome mod. THANK YOU!!!
dankcoffin 29 aug 2017 om 10:57 
Thanks @bg.

Can you offer any insight into what needs to be updated to get mods working for WotC? I imagine it's different for every mod, but anything really quick and general you can offer?

Thanks for your vigilant work!
