[BETA] X2WOTCCommunityHighlander v1.30.2

Description
BETA NOTICE

IF YOU USE THIS BETA VERSION UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THE STABLE HIGHLANDER MOD OR YOUR GAME WILL CRASH!

This is the BETA version of the Highlander. It contains the latest changes before they make their way into the stable version.

You can help the Highlander team by using the BETA version instead of the stable version and providing feedback on bugs or new features.

WARNING: Use the BETA version at your own risk and not in an Ironman run. It is possible that the BETA contains undetected bugs and may crash your game or cause other issues.

What is Highlander?

Highlander replaces a big portion of the game's code in order to make it more moddable and mod-compatible, as well as fix a lot of bugs.

As implied by the name, only one Highlander mod can be used at a time. Hence, the Highlander tries to address as many use cases as possible. Not counting fixing bugs, the Highlander does not change the behavior of the game, it merely provides ways for other mods to do so.

Everything that goes into Highlander undergoes rigorous testing and peer review.

How do I use the Highlander?

Subscribe to the mod and enable it in your mod launcher like you would any other. You should see the Highlander's name and current version appear in the lower right corner of the game's main menu screen.

Useful Links

Thank you for using the Highlander. Our objective is to support all modders to be all they can be, so if you have suggestions please let us know.

[BETA] Alien Hunters DLC Plugin

If you have Alien Hunters DLC installed and enabled, and you are using this version of the Highlander, then you also should install the [WOTC][BETA] Alien Hunters Community Highlander plugin as well.

Do NOT install that plugin if you do NOT have the Alien Hunters DLC.

Moreover, the "duplicate mod workaround" simply does not work for the Highlander.

TBH, yes it works.. but it's still "better" to put the effort in to ignoring manually with only one Highlander (stable or beta) installed.

The duplicateID workaround works by changing the non-primary xcommod file and appending "-disabled" to it, thus making it an invalid mod/file for the game to load. However, when steam does it's 'randomly decided to verify your mods' thing.. it will re-download the now 'missing' xcommod file.... and boom.. suddenly you have stable&beta highlanders installed, which IS very bad

(this was on AML 1.5+, fwiw... but hey, if it works, it works)

I did, but I recall seeing multiple discussions in the modding Discord where the two being installed together (even with only one loaded!) would break stuff. Interesting that that apparently works, now.

@XpanD read the bottom of the discussions of yes the beta works. And it tells about an aml function they worked whit the creaters of aml to fix this problem. =)

Wait what, that's a thing? I thought subbing to both at the same time was considered a very bad thing, huh.

guys, plz look into the discussion above..the one about THE BETA WORKS AS A REPLACEMENT TO THE STABLE

Yeah thats why i wish there was a mass ignore function to the ones missing only X2WOTC

It wasn't too bad when I did it on my 1700-mod list, just be sure to use the filters to only see stuff with missing dependencies. Worth putting a bit of time into imho, being able to see actual missing dependencies is pretty important.
