Extended Character Pool

Description
WOTC Version can be found here:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1136878667

This mod makes the following modifications to the Character Pool list:

1. Changes format to Last Name, First Name NickName ( Country, Class )
2. Can sort by Last Name, First Name if turned on in the INI.

This should help quickly identify soldiers whose class or country of origin you wish to change, as
well as locate an individual soldier, if you have a very large pool.

Configuration
There are two configuration options in XcomExtendedCharacterPool.ini:
SORT_BY
Values: NONE, NAME
Default: NONE

NAME_FORMAT
Values: LAST_FIRST, FIRST_LAST
Default: LAST_FIRST

Note:
This mod overrides UICharacterPool and will conflict with any other mod which
overrides the same class. Just fyi if you see something not working.

Important:
An unintended side effect of the sorting is that once it's sorted once, it remains sorted,
even after you unsuscribe. Soldiers added after that would remain at the bottom of the list.

WOTC Compatible: YES

If you find this useful, a thumbs up would be very much appreciated.

@krj12

Just wanted to say: thank you very much. This has satisfied my OCD during my campaigns in LW 2.

Wow, I see you added sort by Nickname to the WotC version. As I'm still playing LW2 I wish this version had that! (But beggars can't be choosers!)

Great Mod, thanx for bringing it to us!

Can you add sorting by last name and call sign?

I'm blind; sorry, thanks!:steamfacepalm:

@Kalarian yeah, sorting goes by last/first regardless of display format.

see link at the top of the description for the WOTC version.

Does this work with WotC?
Kalarian Oct 8, 2017 @ 5:49am 
Sorting by name sorts by last name even if you display First_Last

@Krimson The special resistance heroes dont have a nationality, so that is to be expected. I just tried changing a Rookie to a Templar and cant reproduce your issue.

@Panderrific Check out the new WOTC version, you can now sort by class if desired.

It seems to not work with spark and resistance heroes. If you add one to the pool the nationality is not there, and if you change an existing character in the pool to that class, they get deleted completely.
