XCOM 2

Unable to equip medkit
The title says it all. No clue as to why, but very few of my soldiers will allow me to change their utility slot item to a medkit. Fearing something has gone wrong some where, I tried equipping a gas grenade found as a reward earlier. A few more could equip that, but not everyone. Yes, WOTC has a number of mods installed; 80 or so? So, maybe a conflict somewhere. No clues provided, needless to say, thru XCOM2's interface if so as I've dropped any it had suggested as causing issues AND started a new game over from scratch.

Gave up on using that community based launcher as, although it does let me set load order still few clues as to what order is best. Nor have I ever been able to find too many things on the web on that topic other than the need to, "Load meta-mods first." Very few mods provide any details on the subject in their descriptions within or in workshop on Steam.

Suggestions, helpful ones!, gratefully appreciated.

Simplest explanation is most likely that the med-kit is currently equipped on a different soldier not active on the mission. Click on the "Free up Utility items" button and look for it again.

Also, if you have one gas grenade, it can only be equipped by a single unit. It's not squad-wide like the frag and plasma grenades.

Load order control in the AML doesn't actually work.

You are running with the mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1287107824.

Your squadies are not injured, so they are not healing.
Your squadies are tired but still available to go in your active squad.
Your squadies are inserted into the bar to increase the rate it which they loose the tired state.
You cannot equip items onto them in the squad select screen. (It apears like its worked, but when you go back a screen it hasnt.)

Solution. Remove the squadies from the bar. Try again.
