[WOTC] Tactical HUD Lag Fixes

Description
Tactical HUD Lag Fixes - for War of the Chosen

Various performance fixes in the Tactical HUD:
  • Greatly reduce number of ability array refreshes while visualizations are running. Huge cause of frame stutters, especially noticable when also using the 'Cost Based Ability Colors' mod.
  • Cache hitchance calculations before sorting them, reducing the number of needed calculations even further.
  • Reduce the number of unnecessary refreshes of the 'Objectives list' and 'Turn counter' HUD elements.

Compatibility

** Safe to add/remove mid-campaign. Safe to add/remove from a tactical save. **

This mod has Mod Class Overrides for the following classes:
  • UITacticalHUD_Enemies
  • UITacticalHUD_AbilityContainer
  • UITacticalHUD_Countdown
  • UIObjectiveList

All mods that use the same Mod Class Override are incompatible, except for the ones listed below:

Using 'WOTC - Extended Information!'? READ THIS:

You MUST disable one of the ModClassOverrides of 'Extended Information!'. This mod automatically detects if you are using 'Extended Information!' and also uses its MCM config settings.
  • Find the XComEngine.ini file for 'Extended Information!' (steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1183444470\Config\XComEngine.ini).
  • Find the line +ModClassOverrides=(BaseGameClass="UITacticalHUD_Enemies", ModClass="UITacticalHUD_Enemies_HitChance")
  • Remove it, or comment it (put a ; in front of it)

Using '[WOTC] Unlimited Ability Icons'? READ THIS:

This mod already includes Unlimited Ability Icons. You MUST remove or disable '[WOTC] Unlimited Ability Icons', you don't need it with this mod. It is safe to remove mid-campaign and from tactical saves.

Thanks -bg- for letting me include the functionality of Unlimited Ability Icons into this mod!

Issues

Please report any issues you may find here or on discord (@ExitSign).

Yes.

Does this work with long War of the Chosen?

I can confirm the issue with controllers. You select one objective but the soldier shoots to another one. It happens even following the advice of commenting the line.

After many, many hours of disabling and enabling mods, unfortunately I found this one to be the cause of my issue where the tutorial mission soft-locks as the "Call Evac" button never appears (nor does the hotkey work) so I can't progress with the game. Given the other comments, I would guess this is just a conflict that I was unable to identify.

As the author of fix controller grappling, I can happily report its no longer needed iwth the latest version of the highlander. You do want to add a few extra pathing types, but the main ones are already in the highlander.

If this gets updated to work with controllers, is there any way to make it compatible with "Fix Controller Grappling" as well?

I performed your recommend edit and and unsubscribed from "Unlimited Ability Icons". I am in the grounded Defend the Avenger mission. The problem is that my soldiers will not fire at my selected targets. On the battlefield I switch to my Windows game pad. On the Avenger I use the mouse to navigate. Thanks

Excuse me, ExitSign

Would this mod affect SaintKnave's Recruits Conserve Character Pool (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1131878283) in any way?

Thank you very much for your help.

Tried mid-campaign with the fixes you listed in the info as I use both Extended Information and Unlimited Ability Icons, game crashed consistently whenever I revealed a pod. Not a big deal right now, I'll try using this again in a fresh new campaign when I'm done with my current stream run.

controller issues here as well
