Commander's Choice [WOTC & Vanilla]

Description
This mod is compatible with both Vanilla XCOM 2 and War of the Chosen.
The mod may be marked as incompatible with War of the Chosen. This can be ignored. The mod is classified as a vanilla xcom mod to maintain cross-compatibility.

Commander's Choice
Commander's Choice lets you set the class of any Rookie who is ready to rank up to Squaddie.

Any rookie ready for promotion will have a Commander's Choice button in the Armory Soldier Menu.
By Default Commander's Choice disables the Promotion Button for Rookies on the After Action screen (screenshot 3).
The Promote button on the Armory screen can optionally be disabled as well. This behavior can be customized in the ini.

The Commander's Choice button will only appear for Rookies that have earned but not yet received a promotion.
The PsiOps and Spark classes are not supported, for lore and mechanical reasons. The Commander's Choice button will not appear for these classes.
All other class, including custom classes, are supported. The only requirement is that the class be available to rookies for promotion.

can i add this mid game?

Thank you for the mod. Is there a chance to add the promotion to one of the 3 special classes? Reaper/Skirmisher/Templar. I've been searching and there isn't a mod that can do that.

Does anyone know what might prevent it from even appearing in the first place? I have the mod installed but nothing changes in armour, the promotion tab is still the only options, no "Commanders Choice"

It bugged my campaign saves, had to restart. Wasn't using any other modes besides cosmetic ones.

For me, the game itself runs and works fine, but the mod just doesn't actually do anything because i can go on a mission only for my guys at the base to still be getting promoted. I'll end up having way more akimbo guys then i'll ever use, only for the game to decide on it's own to promote more, when i REALLY need more grenadiers, specialists and rangers. No, i do not need six stormriders when i only have a single alchemist....

Mod is definitely broken. The game won't start when mod is enabled.

@Lumiere I have the same problem.
Lumiere Jan 8 @ 8:51pm 
Anyone else getting the bug with RPGO where if you use it together with commander's choice, and the second wave option to pick your starting abilities, the 'confirm' button at the bottom of the abilities page isn't present?

I can't access soldier bonds with this mod, is that a bug?
