Re: Failed to get drone wreck after control hack and killing it with standard shot
With "working as intended" I didn't mean it's vanilla behavior(it could be though, I never really played without LW2), but that it's working as intended by the LW2 devs. Again, don't quote me on this, might be I'm remembering things wrong.

Re: Lone Wolf does not work properly with Fleche
I don't think this would be an easy change. You can trigger Fleche via context by directly right-clicking an enemy but it can also be initiated via the Fleche ability-icon. If you use the icon, you can see the hit and crit chances and the possible damage like with every other attack. In addition, yo...

Re: shreddered extra armor will eat armor points
This will also go in the negative area. What do you mean with this part? If the solder gets shredded twice, then looses his bonus armor, he will end up with -1 armor? If I now activate Shield Wall again that soldier becomes only 2 points of armor instead of the 3 points. Is this after two shredding...

Re: UFO distress signal bug.
I think I had a similiar encounter with a turret on mission start but it wasn't at an ufo. From what I saw, the turret detects your squad BEFORE it gains the mission-start-concealment(the turret activates cutscene/event triggered). After that, the mission-start-concealment gets applied to your full ...

Re: Hellweave Localization
I think I remember the devs saying that they intentionally kept the description vague to an extend, to make later re-balancing easier. So if they ever change that chance to less than 100%, they wont have to rewrite the text to reflect that change. Also, it's technically correct. There is a chance fo...

Re: Failed to get drone wreck after control hack and killing it with standard shot
It's the same for mind controlled enemies. If you(or the enemy) kill anything while it's on your side(=under your control), no corpse drops. I think I read somewhere this is working as intended, but don't quote me on this. Because of this behavior, I always wait with the kill-shots until I loose con...

Re: Convoy protection doesn't give corpses?
The network tower mission doesn't give corpses by default as well. If you want to change this no-corpses behavior for a sweep-mission, you can check that mission in the XComMission.ini of the LW_Overhaul mod. Look for ObjectiveName="Sweep" where bIsTacticalObjective=false and change that t...

Re: Soldiers cannot jump through windows or low cover
Do maps get assigned before you even see the mission? That is the case from what I've seen in the code. It seems the amount of time a mission is available on the map-screen starts ticking when it gets generated(which is before it gets visible on the map). Depending on the scanning values for the re...

Re: Pistol equipping
Well, does the game call it a pistol? If not, then whatever it was before has been repurposed by LW2 into what it is now.Mesh2007 wrote:Ok but the character still has a pistol (tier one revolver) equipped that i cannot un equip.

I would honestly prefer to have all perks for the AWC be visible as soon as the AWC is build, is there a way to make this happen (ini file edit, console command)?

Re: Does hacking break concealment?
I agree. Would be nice for a hacked unit to only break concealment if it attacks(or acts otherwise suspicous I guess, but that would be hard to determine).

I also have a quick question about the Retaliations - On the "save as many civs as possible and clear the map of ayys" type, why don't we get their corpses, like other Kill all enemy forces missions? And while JL is here, where in the LW2 files is the code for whether you get corpses or n...

Re: Edits to Classdata and Rookie pcs slots?
As far as I know, both the base game and LW2 only hve one PCS slot per soldier. I suspect the second slot is added by a mod you use?
If that's the case, this might be an incompability between that mod and LW2.

Yes it makes sense that it works that way.
I didn't see an easy way to find mods with 'Mod Everything' as a requirement, but maybe there aren't too many using it after all..

Re: Amour Mods
I think GLM mods the number of weapon slots each item that came out of a lockbox dynamically. That's why your tier 1 weapons and armor opened from lockboxes could have 2 slots while generic only had 1. I agree. There is a Tier/Rarity code that grants anything between 1-4 slots of ugrades(but 4 is r...

Maybe something that gives it utility instead of just damage? Like debuffing enemy mobility/aim/will , in a way crippling the enemy. Could be a free action with a cooldown that allows the gunner to fall back to a new shooting position. Not sure how usefull that would be in practice, I didn't play mu...

Re: Balance: gunner secondary, chameleon suit
Pistols suffer from cover, but in the equivalent situation (you are in melee range), there cannot be cover by definition. This is not completely true. I had a situation where both my gunner and an advent unit where in low cover from 2 sides but still diaginally next to each other. And since melee d...
