XCOM 2
Double 'Fire Weapon' and 'Overwatch' icons?
Hey guys :) I'm having a sort of weird issue that's a problem but not really? Some of my soldiers during missions have two icons for firing and overwatching, and I can't seem to place why. I've managed to figure out that it's treating the soldiers as if they have two weapons - one with mods, and one without, but I'm not sure how to replicate it or how to fix it.

I've done some searching on Google and despite other people having this issue, I haven't found any actual resolutions. Has anyone else had this, or potentially know exactly what causes it? I know my game is pretty heavily modded, but it's only something that's been happening in the past couple of weeks or so, and I can't think of a specific mod that would be doing it.

Mod list for reference: https://pastebin.com/AKVd7jEz

Thanks in advance if anyone is able to help! :)

P.s. If this should be in Workshop Discussions instead because my game is modded, please let me know and I'll move it over. Ty!

Edit: I should note that both firing and overwatch actions work perfectly fine/as intended. It's not game-breaking, it's just really odd to see and I don't want to accidentally fire with the 'wrong weapon' :)

Do you use Primary Secondaries? Think that was the cause for some people. Try True Primary Secondaries

Firstly, sorry to Necro.

Secondly, I found a fix. On the off chance that anyone runs into this in the future, and they themselves haven't found another alternative, one method that has worked consistently for me over five different mod lists some with Musashi's fixes and some without, was to unequip the afflicted soldier having the issue.

I use a squad manager, so for me I just click "Unequip all selected soldiers" and restore them to stock. I know vanilla has a way to make weapons/gear available and it basically does the same thing.

For me, the cause of the issue is when Reskinning weapons. Now it's not every time, but on the off chance I reskin a weapon, equip it, and reskin another, then equip that, whether by accident or neglect, I basically stack 2 weapons on top of eachother, with no way to get back to the bottom where the FIRST weapon was equipped.
