AWESOME MOD! for those bros playing LWOTC, please subscribe mods in the description!

Fix confirmed!

sparks should be fixed

@NitroXpreSs
U are correct there is still a problem with the owned abilties for sparks. After deleting the decks from the config I got the abilties in the middle, but the left side is still buggy. I have to work now I check it out later.

Lwotc user now need to subscribe to Void smasher extension mod for full functionality.

Made an extension mod specifically configured to work with LWOTC. Mod contains xLWOTC=true setting by default and all Rank and Tier decks for all classes.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3485092177

Deleted the LWotc Deck lines and nothing changed. =[

I will move the LWotc stuff to a different mod like the vanilla extension mod. then it should be better for both parties to handle stuff.

Oh ok ok I think I got it nvm, lemme see if it works

I'll be happy to check. Can you please tell me which line to delete specifically? I'm not really good at this..

I found the problem I think. LWotc and Vanilla share the same classname for sparks. If you go into the config and comment out / delete the decks for sparks it should go back to normal.

ok the function that checks sparks got messed during the updates, I take a look at it tomorrow.

if it's in vanilla I check one of my older saves.

Hi Dare. I just wanted to report a bug I think may be a result of some recent updates. I have been using your mod for years now with no problems, this only popped up very recently. I play vanilla and the issue is that Sparks have an entire extra row of cross-class skills ATM. I'll try to explain to the best of my abilities but please don't hesitate to ask for a screenshot if my explanation is too hazy.

Essentially what happens now is that apart from the three horizontal rows of skills i.e. SPARK class specific FUTURE COMBAT, WAR MACHINE and cross-class XCOM - the Training center abilities you can buy/unlock show up BELOW the XCOM row essentially giving sparks 10 slots but not allowing you to switch/buy different skills anywhere but the extra row now. I tried to retrain my spark to see if it would change anything - still the same. The rest of the classes work as intended.

@QQ小冰 That happens if you run the mod with LWOTC having xLWOTC = false in the mod config XComImTheCommanderHere.ini which is set to false by default, and resets to false every time the mod get updated. I specifically tested LWOTS Sparks and they are fine as other classes.

@QQ I take a look at it.

Thank you for such a quick resolution! Updated, had to set lwotc = true in the ini file. Tested and it works now!

I have a bug feedback here, Spark cannot select skills anymore, it's all question marks, including skills that have already been learned

LWOTC "Rank" and "Tier" decks.

If you check LWOTC config XcomClassData.ini you could find definitions of those decks, such as DeckName="Rank1_XComAbilities" which contains pool of abilities that is used to generate a Rank 1 personal ability. Same with Rank 2 and so on to Rank 7. However, above "Rank" decks you could find DeckName="Tier1_XComAbilities" with "Tiers" from 1 to 4. This is the old deck system that is not used for character generation by LWOTC since late last year. "I am the Commander here" mod, however, provide you an ability to use abilities from unused decks as they mentioned in the XComImTheCommanderHere.ini config file.

If you need to customize abilities available for your LWOTC classes and want to have even more abilities to choose from you need to customize your LWOTC XcomClassData.ini. Just add what you like to any DeckName="Rank1_XComAbilities" of any class and these abilities will appear in the respec screen of the "I am the Commander here" mod.

Tested tier decks for templar, skirmisher and reaper with the latest update. Now they works.

uploaded a fix for herosoldiers - steam says it's still being processed though. remember to recheck xLWotc=true in the config.

can u of u 2 provide a screenshot?

Tested setting xLWOTC = true in the XcomImTheCommanderHere.ini, and as of the most recent update for his mod it no longer shows any abilities available for faction heroes, and some abilities are missing for standard heroes. Anybody find a way to resolve this?

Goodmorning, I am having some trouble with the mod, I have 6 perk slots that I can modify, but the showed "equipped perks" are all jumbled perks that aren't equipped and selecting a new perk out of the list, does not make that perk equipped. I have a screenshot that I can show to help make it a bit more clearer

@Dare Thanks a lot for updating the mod!

@Shaider Because mod updated you need to edit config again to set xLWOTC = true.

In the latest mod version there is a combination of old and new LWOTC decks so there is a lot of perks now. This is unfair however. :) So if you wanted to play in the way LWOTC devs are designed their classes, better comment Tier lines in the XComImTheCommanderHere.ini config of the mod.

could u accept my friend request, a quick chat might resolve this faster

EDIT: But a lot of perks still missing, like "Run and Gun" with Specialist

Yes, I have "false" again. Thank you for the fast response

can u check if during the update maybe u have to set xLWotc=true again?

trying to find out what went wrong, on it.

LWoTC now shows only a few perks, any way to go back to last version? Thank you

@Void Smasher
I made the changes in the config for the Decks and added the PsiOp exception. Credited you for your work in the description. Let me know if it works as it should.

And it works now. Yeeeey. :D
Tested for PisOperative and other classes, just to be sure - displaying owned perks and replacing them.

It was Intellisence. Removed plugin and mod compiled properly. My last code example just required an addition of "idx" variable definition in the

simulated function AcceptSelectedPerk()
{
local int idx;

Hm... Will check this out. Thanks.

might be that u have to compile against the latest highlander. If u compile without it there will be errors as some code is looking for function from the community highlander,

Eh. Can't fix it. ModBuddy yelling on lines such as class'UIUtilities_Input'.const.FXS_L_MOUSE_DOWN with Syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting '(', or ':', or ')'

It looks like my SDK is still not configured properly. :(

Thanks! Found one more part that should be fixed. I was too happy when I saw the perks and didn't try to replace them.

ImTheCommanderHere_UI.uc

simulated function AcceptSelectedPerk()
{
...

else if(Ability2Rem.AbilityName != name("None") && xLWOTC)
{
if (Unit.GetSoldierClassTemplateName() == 'PsiOperative')
{
idx = 2;
} else {
idx = 3;
}
Unit.AbilityTree[OwnedAbilities[iSelectedSidePerkID].iRank].Abilities[idx] = Ability2Add;

Instead of:

else if(Ability2Rem.AbilityName != name("None") && xLWOTC)
{
Unit.AbilityTree[OwnedAbilities[iSelectedSidePerkID].iRank].Abilities[3] = Ability2Add;

I look at it over the weekend

I liked this mod and LWOTC so much that I forced myself to install the SDK, figure out how to start modding, made a local copy of your mod, and found and tested a solution for the PsiOperative class. It would be really great if you could update your mod with the fix I posted below and the correct LWOTC decks in the config. The old decks have not been used by the LWOTC mechanics since late last year.

PsiOperative fix explanation. All classes except PsiOperative in LWOTC having 3 class lines, following by personal perks line and following by pistol skills line. So idx=3 is pointing on personal perks line properly.

However, PsiOperative class in LWOTC having only 2 class lines, following by personal perks line and following by pistol skills line. So idx=3 is pointing on pistol skills line instead of personal perks.

That's why a class check is required with idx=2 setting for the PsiOperative.

And here is proper LWOTC decks that should be placed in the Config\XComImTheCommanderHere.ini instead of current LWOTC deck lines.

Hi there. Here is the fix for the PsiOperative class in LWOTC

ImTheCommanderHere_Utilities.uc

static function array<OwnedAbility> GetOwnedAbilitiesAndRanksLWOTC(XComGameState_Unit Unit,out array<SoldierClassAbilityType> EligibleAbilities)
{
local int idx,iRank,iMaxRank;
local array<OwnedAbility> OwnedAbilities;
local array<SoldierClassAbilityType> AllAbilities;
local OwnedAbility FoundAbility;

iMaxRank = 8;

AllAbilities = GetAllAbilities();

// LWOTC PsiOperative fix
if (Unit.GetSoldierClassTemplateName() == 'PsiOperative')
{
idx = 2;
} else {
idx = 3;
}

//we iterate through all the soldier-ranks
for(iRank=1;iRank < iMaxRank;iRank++)
...

It'll be great if you implement this in the mod. Please, note that In this code example I moved idx = 3 out of 'for' cycle because of the GetSoldierClassTemplateName check. It is not necessary to check it on every iteration of 'for'.

Amazing mod, I seriously appreciate it. It's the only reason why I'm able to use Mitzruti's perk pack because I don't like most of the perks in it, so being able to respec in a way that isn't very cheaty is a godsend.

@Dr Jon I encountered the same situation，you need to set xLWOTC from = false to = true inside

it's putting it in 5th row because abilites are added on top existing ones. do u run some kind of class mod which adds more rows or did they change LWOTC?

Using this with LWoTC I thought it was failing, but when I select a 4th row ability to replace with my desired ability, it puts the desired ability into the 5th Row (pistol abilities) and bumps the pistol ability up to the 4th row. This behavior feels very strange and I don't recall it working like this when I used it in the past, but I CAN get the abilities I want so it is "working". Thanks for the mod!!!

@Dare Thanks!!

would be possible. in the src folder of the mod u can find "X2DownloadableContentInfo_ImTheCommanderHere.uc". In there to the bottom u can find the definition of ReplaceAbility which should tell you how to be used via the console in game. Just note that u have to use the actual Abilityname which are normally not shown ingame. For instance the Ability Serial is actually called InTheZone. You can either check xcomclassdata or use my mod and the tooltip of respeccable abilities show their actual name. If you happen to be able to respec another ability into those u trying to change via the console command.
