WotC: robojumper's Squad Select

Description
My personal take on a Squad Select Screen! Completely built from the ground up!

Features:
  • User Interface for more than 6 soldiers. How many? There's no limit! Scroll or Drag&Drop.
  • More intuitive with built-in overview!
  • More information: PCS', Health, Abilities (Shows You The Skills), Stats, Armor, Primaries, Secondaries, Pockets...
  • 100% controller compatible!
  • Configurable with Mod Config Menu, but also standalone!
  • Includes a squad size setting!

Not included:
  • A fix for spawn points when you use more than 9 soldiers. See recommended mods below.

Known Issues:
  • Armory Screens reachable from the Squad Select Screen have a Hotlink to Geoscape. DO NOT CLICK IT. IT CAN CAUSE THE GAME TO LOCK UP FROM AVENGER DEFENSE. This is something I can't easily fix.
    The same applies to a Training Center button. It is not supposed to appear.

How do I increase my Squad Size?

It has a built-in way of choosing the squad size, either via MCM or via the local config file.

If the built-in way of modifying squad size breaks with your setup, you can disable it in XComGame.ini

Recommended Mods:

FAQ:
  • How do I increase my Squad Size?
    • See above.
  • Why does this not include a Spawn Point fix?
    • I wanted to make it as compatible as possible. Since other mods are addressing this issue, I didn't add it.
  • I don't have MCM. How do I configure the mod?
    • Start the game once. It will create a file: "C:/Users/%USERNAME%/Documents/My Games/XCOM2 War of the Chosen/XComGame/Config/XComrobojumperSquadSelect_NullConfig.ini". There you can adjust the same values exposed to MCM.

Thanks:
  • Highbob for ShowMeTheSkills, ideas of which I borrowed.
  • LeaderEnemyBoss for ShowMeTheSkillsRevived, ideas of which I borrowed.
  • DerBK for ABA2, because the mod is balanced around 6-8 soldiers. Without it, this mod wouldn't exist!
  • xylthixlm for helping me with some math.
  • .vhs for upgrade icons and the thumbnail. It's great, don't you think?
  • xymanek/Astral Descend for providing me with more feature requests to implement. Also for poking me to do the update.
  • All other modders who had to hear my random ramblings about the mod and provided feedback.

I started one mission with 9 squad members, all of them survived, but upon returning 5 of them were lost, like they never returned home.

I think that's some other mod.

Is unchecking the "auto fill squad" button meant to leave a blank squad select each time? Because I have that unselected and there is always people in the slots. I'm guessing that setting falls back to default? Is there a way to always clear the squad select per mission?

facepalm sometimes i can see the trees in the forest ....
i just spend 3h try to find the mod what is changing your squad size back to 6 instead of 12
eventually i found the issue

[WOTC] Covert Infiltration overrides your squad size and reduces back to 6
i had to change the max squad size there to 12
XComGameData.ini

i just thought to leave that information here if someone else runs into the same issue

Using the "Unequip Barracks" and "Unequip Squad" buttons also remove the tactical legacy pack armors, ie Improvised Field Armor and also the Resistance Warrior Armor. I don't recall if the unmodded "Make Armor Available" button does the same, but either way, it makes it practically impossible to use those armors in cusomisation, as you'd have to remember to manually equip them when sending specific soldiers on missions.
Perhaps the unequip buttons shouldn't be doing his?
