OK.. How's that translate in some exact INI code terms??

So far so good with my new tricky single Rocket values. Now onto the "Flamethrower" limited ranges -- for proximity & effective length restrictions. Between.. inflicting Fire damages and the fact that the Technical-Boy would likely be VERY exposed to anything within LOS.. compounding t...

Be honest people.. is there any worthy advantages to losing precious Research points (one day +/- here, another there) to obtain very small amounts of resources? When the BlackMarket can give you a hefty bunch of Supplies (even sometimes at a premium!) for ANY of the same corpses (Once given to me.....

Okay -- here's what i mean by a "more" informative version.

Might have found another tricky situation with any attempts to create custom INT that would "hook" correctly to whichever LW2 target files. LW_Overhaul.INT & XComGame.INT are both located into the root of the Localization folder inside the LW2 mod structure -- this IS a normal method w...

.. it's possibly creating troubles for some Pistol-related script functions, maybe?

EDIT Next... -- Ruleset ; The Defend Resistance Supply Convoy special missions have no EVAC zone or Call-for.. thus, when it was completed i just expected to receive rewards or proper loot for such an epic battle along side cool local Haven support soldiers.

Updated the HUD/UI suggestion in Post #1 with a mockup sample. My Gunner Magnus Hagen's primary weapon is Plasma, etc!

Was the "MimicBeacons" PG project (declared as being available after Advanced Grenades in the INI file) accidentally skipped on that Tech-Tree sample? I woud also recommend inserting a few notes or tags that could "compare" the charted elements with XC2 stuff that sticks & &q...

During any initial attempts to enter that screen.. some Panels are either missing their "Items Area" (for Lockett) or others are simply replaced by artifacts (Green or Yellow layers for Metaxas & Nero respectively) as shown in the cropped snapshot below. http://s30.postimg.org/4u3dbz17...

Thorough details.. thanks. What's most interesting for me is this; So functionally the minimum is always zero; the maximum always ranges from 2 to 6. If your Tech has really low aim, they have a very high chance of a full six-tile scatter, but if their aim is really good then they might manage that ...

As i got deeper into the XComGame.INT file for modding reasons, i found double entries for the same section (Line #2798); [AutopsyDrone X2TechTemplate] DisplayName="ADVENT Robotics" CodeName="Duster" Summary="ADVENT relies heavily on mechanized units for crowd control and wa...

Specially in early game (it seems).. the odds of having a rationally precise Gauntlet Rocket Hit is sooooooo low it just makes that Class main feature completely useless, IMHO. The scattering effect is much TOO large.. so, i have yet to see a rocket hit within a minimum of 1/3 tiles from the intende...

Although even the newly updated "CostBasedAbilityColors" somehow rendered my tactical gameplay very sluggish. So i had to de-activate it. I wouldn't know what occurs exactly as i don't have any other Mods that would cause such issues. Hard to tell.. but i wish InfectedM will soon find the ...

@JLtheking.. Actually.. it's relatively simple. Just D/L this custom file from my DropBox Host; https://www.dropbox.com/s/welptt9k8eg5btv/UICollection_WeaponUpgradeIndicators.upk?dl=0 And -- replace the original with it which you can find in this path; "**Your-Install-Drive**:\Steam\steamapps\w...

Bof.. i guess the obstacle for that particular connection could have been "Limited Length" & global trajectory tracking of Avenger flight paths? But if you mean this -- you could probably just copy the WEU/NAF connection and edit the name for WEU/EAF, the line should be pretty close --...

Yeah.. trust me, i know. I was making small personal edits to the core XComGame.INT file locally while the auto-steam upload cycle was secretly happening. Took my Notepad++ changes -- saved the transit temp hook -- got back into the game for a rapid check -- KABOOOOMMM -- ERROR -- SHAPEDCHARGE HAS N...

Could you make at least the 8th (You surely must know the Mediterranean Gambit Loop is appealing -- gameplay wise) for me+us please!?

Oooopppsss.. didn't check for similar threads before making a post about that mysterious gameplay cycle..

anyway -- refer to this http://www.pavonisinteractive.com/phpBB ... 16&t=23966 if you want some cute visual hints about what's involved -- at first step.

For those like me who have been somehow puzzled by the required duo of Missions leading to Liberation. :idea: Here's a quick snapshot of two ingame images that reveals the whole principle. http://s30.postimg.org/tbbunbi9d/Liberation_Cycle.png Meaning -- pay extra attention to such tiny details... it...

Yeah.. all we really need now is to prevent our Officers & AWC trainies to stop losing their "LoadOut Inventories" (Items & Primary Weapons) when going in-&-out of these places.

@JLtheking, It's a bit more complex than just having my alternate INI file since i *DO* have a special UPK library that swaps his "Tiny Pistol" Icons for custom "Boxy/Diamonds". But here's the exact configurations... ------------ [WeaponUpgradeIndicators.UIWeaponUpgradeIndicators...

Hey -- thank you for the source files confirmation about what i had observed with just 3 by plain luck, @Arcalane. Very nice 7 choices (and strategically important at that) they made! Too bad i didn't get my wish of a tiny WE/EA link (between Italy & Israel, etc) though -- could have been fun to...

Well, sadly -- even with the Alternate Mod Launcher re-ordering of LW2 into the list to be before qUIck_LW2 (to make sure my changes aren't overwritten by LW2 INT file defaults)... it simply doesn't work --- again. :shock: Soooo -- i can only conclude there's something in their code mechanics (or wi...
