Re: Help with Ability (Again)

I think I've made some progress. Having had a look at how Extra Conditioning affects Run and Gun I've made a new "X2AbilityToHitCalc" file which I want to insert the % values depending on whether the second ability is present or not. Only problem now is that I'm getting an error when build...

Help with Ability (Again)

Hello I am hoping I can get some advice with an ability I've made. Basically I've got an ability that gives a unit a 25% chance of taking an overwatch shot in certain circumstances. I want to create an ability that alters this chance to 50% but I don't really know where to start. I've looked at Supp...

Re: New Perk Help

Hmm ok that is a starting point, thank you.

I'm assuming there is a way to manipulate these values through perks as I believe flashbacks added by the perk flashbanger as an example don't impact mobility.

New Perk Help

Hello I want to make a new perk which removes the mobility penalty for certain utility items. For instance if I wanted to make smoke grenades not -1 mobility do I need to make an ability that gives +1 mobility for each smoke grenade to cancel it out? I don't really know where to start so any pointer...

Re: What gameplay changing mods are you using?

I have overhauled the classes using a heavily modified shadow ops mod and the jackal class.

Re: HELP: Assign More Haven Advisers

I like this idea. Perhaps it could be a suggestion in the main forum. The idea of having the ability to garrison a squad in a haven perhaps granting some sort of benefit when defending the haven to retaliations etc would an an interesting angle. Maybe responding to a retaliation via the Avenger woul...

Mobility Penalty

Hello I'm hoping someone knows how to accomplish something I'm trying to do. In LW2 all utility items add a -1 mobility penalty. I'd like to create a new perk which removes that penalty for certain items specifically flashbangs. I haven't got the first idea where to start with this perk. Any pointers?

Re: Help with Ability

Thanks for the help guys, in the end I decided to make it an active ability as think this is more engaging for the player, as it forces them to think and decide when to use it rather than always having it there. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=876106311&searchtext= Mod rele...

Help with Ability

Hello I'm hoping I can get some help with a custom perk. It's a passive perk that grants the unit a reduction to incoming damage from reaction fire. I've made the effect that reduces damage taken by half, but I cannot work out how to create an ability that will ensure the effect is only triggered by...

Re: Adding new abilities

Hi I need some help again. Basically I'm trying to rebuild the four vanilla classes using abilities from the perkpack but I don't want the expanded skill trees for now just the original two sided trees. What is the easiest way to get the perk pack abilities into my mod without the expanded skill tre...

Re: Adding new abilities

Ok cool, I thought you'd be keeping that close to your chest.

Are you able to hint whether we're talking weeks or months though? I'm going to keep persisting with trying to make my own abilities but if the PerkPack is going to drop relatively soon then I won't bother.

Re: Adding new abilities

Right a quick update, I've succesfully managed to create an ability that gives the soldier an extra flashbang, I'm starting to get to grips with ability adding but still not much idea of how I'll accomplish the original aim of letting the soldier throw a flashbang at the start of the player's turn f...

Hello I'm hoping I can get some help. I've got a new class I want to add with some custom abilities I've thought up. I've added the class no problem but no clue where to start with abilities so hoping someone can advise or direct to a tutorial. First ability I've got in mind is one allowing a soldie...
