[WotC] Peek From Concealment UI Fix

Description
This is an optional add-on mod for Peek From Concealment.

This mod fixes the movement preview UI to account for Peek's modified concealment rules. This means you should only see a warning flag if you're actually going to break concealment.

This mod requires Gotcha Again.
In the future it is completely possible that Gotcha may update and break this mod, but in that case it won't do any harm to remove it (besides getting the false warnings again).

No guarantees are provided that the preview will be perfectly trustworthy. I am not liable for soldier deaths caused by the UI being a dirty liar. That said, I tried to make it as accurate as possible.

Note: The mod launcher may specify that this mod conflicts with Gotcha Again, ignore it, it should work anyway.

ps. Based on reading the Gotcha code I believe that everyone who worked on the project should be eligible for sainthood.

Troubleshooting
If the mod doesn't work for you there is one thing you can do to fix it. Go to Gotcha Again's XComEngine.ini and find the line
+ModClassOverrides=(BaseGameClass="XComPathingPawn", ModClass="XComPathingPawn_GA")
and delete it or prepend a semicolon (;) to comment it out.
This will also remove the conflict warning from the mod launcher. You'll have to re-add this line if you remove this mod, or Gotcha won't work.

UPDATED 12/26 - Came back and fixed the civilian bug after approximately 3 billion years. (Hopefully)

I downloaded [WOTC] Gotcha Again Redux and removed Gotcha Again, Peek from Concealment, and this mod and it works fine now.

I added a semicolon to comment out the line in Gotcha Again's XComEngine.ini, but on AML it shows that this mod and Gotcha Again still conflict with each other.

A quick note for people also using Crouch Lower: Going by what that mod's author has said, it incorporates a variant of these fixes. Don't use both mods together!

(I was getting the occasional unexpected reveal, did some digging and found out about that... wonder if a conflict was the cause?)

Thanks for making this, absolute lifesaver for the years I used it!

Does the vanilla version require this fix too?

I don't know if there was such a comment, but there is a conflict.
Conflict found for 'XComPathingPawn':

@Morgan_Yu And how would that have possibly happened? Gotcha Again hasn't been updated since 2017, while this mod was updated in 2019.

For those who have performance problem, try resubscribe the mod. My game was brought down to 5 fps in geoscape, but after resubscribe the mod and remove files in \Documents\My Games\XCOM2 War of the Chosen\XComGame\Config, the performance return to noraml.

Do you mean that AML reports a conflict or that the mod's not working? Try a Skirmish match, assuming you've got TLP, to see if it works.

I added the ; to the line stated in the description but I still get a conflict :/
