Better Second Wave Mod Support

Description
Allows multiple mods to add more second wave option without conflicting each other when it comes to localization.

Also allows some SW options to be modified in campaign. (Not all are supported)

This mod by default don't add new second wave options, screenshot example option is granted by EU aim rolls.

Modder Instructions: Just follow the format in XComGame.ini and BetterSecondWaveSupport.int with the 'ExampleOption' for your new second wave options, and this mod will take care of the rest. When difficulty option is changed mid campaign, it will always trigger 'OnSecondWaveChanged' event before the second wave option is updated, with the screen as event source and campaign settings as event data, compare the second wave options to know if your option is toggled and handle it accordingly if required, this is different from DLC Hook OnDifficultyChange which is called AFTER the second wave options are updated in Campaign Settings.

Compability:
Overwrites UIShellDifficulty

@Lobuno
hey friend, it was rather unnecessary to be rude. you could simply answer the question and move on.

that being said, your information was also incorrect.

@SaveMe
yes you can change SOME of the secondwave options mid game.
simply press esc, go to change your difficulty, and the "Toggle Advanced Options View" will be there.
Hope that helps

@SaveMe nope, you can't. But it's extremely easy to check. Your laziness is overwhelming.

Can we revisit this option later in mid game?

@AllMightyBox: Just google XCom2 Community Launcher. Should bring it up easily.

@skuggvarg.13: Get the Community made Mod Launcher. The official ones are all trash.

Well thanks to the removal of the launcher I can no longer get to the mods or start them in the new game start up. PLUS the DLCs seem to be not there properly as well...
