A Better AWC

Description
What it does
  • Adds a screen where you can choose an AWC perk
  • Selection choices limit by difficulty by default
  • Makes the AWC retroactive for missed perks (onload savegame/postmission)
  • Respeccing a soldier in the AWC also respecs the AWC ability
  • works with Longwar Perk Pack (LW PP)
  • Spawns a little yellow rectangle in the soldierscreen which indicates on which rank you get your hidden AWC ability

MAKE A SEPERATE SAVEGAME BEFORE INSTALLING THIS MOD.

GamePad
  • Pressing R1/R2 DPAD Left/Right Analog Left/Right should let you cycle through abilities
  • Sadly R3 / Right Anlaog Stick to click the respec button won't work anymore after making this mod
    override free, I implemented a workaround: while in the armory open the console and type
    "ClickRespecButtonByConsole" without the " it should trigger the button if he is visible and enabled
  • You can show tooltips for abilities by pressing L3 (left analog stick down)
  • no scrolling support for Gamepad as for now

Compatibility with other mods
  • no overrides are used anymore, so should be compatible with about anything now that doesn't
    change the numbers of AWC-Abilites a soldier gets (default is 1)
  • DOES NOT WORK WITH THE POTENTIALS MOD (and no it's not on my end)

Same Mod for other iterations of the game

this mod is for vanilla x-com 2, not for wotc.

it seems not compatiable with "Community Promotion Screen" mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2550561145

ah okay i see. thanks for the info. i worked around it by installing your mod but letting the default perk stay so i managed to get the best of both worlds. thnaks for this mod by the way.
Dare  [author] Apr 3, 2022 @ 2:25pm 
there is non, you only change the amout of selectable perks to 1
Thimble Apr 3, 2022 @ 12:33pm 
oh you misunderstand. i like your mod. just was wondering what line in your config file do i need to change to switch from perk choices, to randomly assigned. im aware of the retroactive awc mod however that is now outdated.
Dare  [author] Apr 3, 2022 @ 11:44am 
then you should subscribe to the mod "retroactive awc" I think was its name and not use mine anymore ^^
Thimble Apr 3, 2022 @ 11:35am 
tldr; i would like to be assigned a random perk instead of the ability to choose between different perks, but i wish the keep the retroactive function your mod provides.
Thimble Apr 3, 2022 @ 11:34am 
sorry i did not phrase properly. what i meant was in vanilla sometimes you dont receive 1 because your soldiers AWC rank is predermined before you biuld your AWC and sometimes my soldier misses out on the perks because his AWC rank is early game.
I like your mod's retroactive setting however i would prefer the change the .ini so that i get only 1 random perk vs the current setting where i can pick and select.
Is there a way to change that? while command line would that be?
Dare  [author] Apr 3, 2022 @ 11:01am 
That u didn't recieve 1 in Vanilla was a bug. I think in the config you can change how many abilities you can get per difficulty.
