Description
About This Mod
This is a redux version of the original MEC Troopers which includes all of the bug fixes from MEC Troopers for LWOTC Redux. This is designed to be a drop-in replacement for the original MEC Troopers mod. If using LW, you should use the LW Redux version.

Redux Changes
This version features a few changes.
  • Cooked to reduce filesize.
  • Fixed the bug that caused them to receive extra AP, so they have XCOM decks again.
  • Redid the UI so you see classes and not abilities on the selection screen.
  • Added arrays so strategy costs can be changed for each difficulty.
  • Added new infrastructure for selecting classes, opening things up to additional modded mec classes.

What Stays the Same
All class trees and skill balance. The content of this mod should be identical to MEC Troopers and RealityMachina's original vision.

Requirements

Thanks
  • Kiruka and RealityMachina for the origional Mec Troopers and Mec Troopers for LWOTC mods, and for permission to release this.
  • Tedster for all the major bug fixes and paring down the for LWOTC version to be used as a redux for the OG.
  • RustyDios for help with strategy costs stuff and the spiffy preview pic.
  • shiremct for the code used to do the infrastructure updates for additional class support.

Ah ok, thanks!

Ah, you will want to look at the version for LWotC then. This is a drop in for the original mod. Tedster has a version specifically for LW, but it has extra dependencies too.

Ok so i got my first mec unit and im confused. You say its a drop in replacement for the lwotc version but doesnt have a brigadier level? Why should i use this over the other version then?

The redux is a drop-in replacement for the original MEC Troopers mod. Meaning it is meant to be feature equivalent to that original mod just with bug fixes and enhancements for other mods to take advantage of. So, depending on the class you are looking for, if it was in the original mod, it should be in this mod as well.

Question, does this redux have hero unit mecs? or just standard class mecs?

Maybe I'm missing something, but the armor schematics on the Engineering isn't compatible with [WOTC] Mechatronic Warfare: Total SPARK Overhaul part that insert Spark Armor to be unlocked together with Soldier Armor.

So, what happens is that there is the mechatronic combined schematics and another that probably is the combination of SPARK armor + MEC Trooper Armor.

It would be nice if it was compatible and had one schematic for Plated and another for Powered combining all 3 armors (soldier+spark+mec)

Yes, this version is designed to be a "drop-in" replacement for the OG

Sorry if this question has been asked before. I have the non-redux WOTC Mec mod installed already. Is there a way to turn this one on and disable the old one without losing / corrupting data?

At the very least, on my end, Skirmishers do not get the "Maurader" starting perk. Is it only the starting perk that is different? Haven't tested Reapers yet either and their free conceal.
