[WoTC] Emotions of the Resistance - a Soldier Mood Framework

Why do we need this? Because we are not the aliens, our soldiers are more than just pawns with guns, they are people. And people have emotions.

From the rookie to the grizzled sniper, no one is immune to the ups and downs of life aboard the Avenger. A sleepless night might leave your sharpshooter a little shaky on the field. A heartfelt gift from a squadmate could motivate your grenadier to go above and beyond. Even the best can be distracted, anxious, or downright annoyed when the pressure mounts.

Taking inspiration from Rimworld, every soldier now has mood that changes every few days and modifies their stats a bit. With 50 moods added so far, your squad will always have something on their mind.

This mood system was designed to be both simple to play and easy to expand, using Iridar's Gene Mods as a template. I wanted it to be a small thing, always running in the background that can influence your decisions, for who you bring on a mission without unbalancing the game's difficulty. It also adds more flavor and individuality to your troops as they get used to their new lives on the Avenger.

The Party Update - You can now select a soldier and throw a party for them at the bar. That soldier will be unavailable for a few days but will return in high spirits.
You need either a new campaign or a save that never had this mod installed to trigger the new staff slot at the bar, but you can otherwise install the mod mid game.

This mod is still in testing, I think it should be mostly functional but you might want to check back in a week once I've had more bugs squashed out.
If you’re someone with UI modding skills, I want to hire you to work on a better presentation layer.
