LWOTC disables all breakthroughs so this most likely would not work with it unless you edit the configs for LWOTC to re-enable breakthroughs

Is it applicable to LWOTC? I have used it in LWOTC, but it doesn't seem to work. Is it my illusion？

@Mask Because there are already breakthroughs for swords in base WOTC.

LWOTC?

Why no swords?

With this mod can u get ALL The base game breakthroughs and all of yours? If u play long enough

Hi, can you make a breakthrough were we increase all soldiers, gremlins and bits hack points? pls

@13Crusader13(TWW2019Top8Winner) that is because Reapers already have a breakthrough for Vektor Rifle in WOTC so no need to add another one with this mod.

@13Crusader13(TWW2019Top8Winner)
Same here. +2 is just too much.

Psi Amp damage is shown as +1 when the conventional/magnetic/plasma weapons breakthroughs are researched but there is no damage bonus applied

Just ran into the known issue above. Anyone know of a way to fix this?

@Hotl3looded
I meant that you and @neIVIesis could discuss publishing a new, improved version of the mod, rather than updating this one. I just worded it badly.

@EvilPolygons I have been using my personal version of this mod with the fixes for years ;)

If I am not mistaken, only the mod creator can update the mod so it would have to be Jace.

@Hotl3looded
Jace has been gone for several years. @neIVIesis is listed as a co-author, so technically he could give you permission to update the mod if you two wanted to work something out, I guess. Otherwise you can always fix & rebuild it for personal use.

(Also, I had no idea about issues 2 & 3. Thanks for the heads up!)

Hey Jace, excellent mod! I was checking through the mod files and I found a few minor issues:
1- In X2Download, you made a typo that prevents the configs to work properly "config(MoreBreakhtroughs);", that is why people are not able to disable Avenger Breakthroughs
2- Medium Armor Health affects Kevlar but requires Plated research so it will actually never appear while we use Kevlar
3- Resistance warrior Kevlar is not affected by Medium Armor Health

Im not sure if you are still active but I guess it doesnt hurt to report my findings!

Could I ask that the grenade breakthrough be applied to rockets from Iridar's Rocket Launchers? Or, that a new breakthrough for rockets could be added?

@LightenedDark I only contributed custom images to this mod. I know little of coding for the game.

@nelVlesis, you wouldn't happen to know how to REMOVE vanilla breakthroughs from appearing, would you?

@Dragon32: I'm sorry i didn't realize i just started playing last week.

@Voltorx:
Does the base game have breakthroughs? No. So what do you think the chances are of adding more to a non-existent mechanic?

Is there one for the vanilla game.

@Jace the Ace I am using this mod and can help you make new images

Question for Jace; the Avenger related breakthroughs are still showing up even with the .ini option set to "true". Can you explain how you went about disabling them? Is it an .ini edit, or something deep in the code that you need Modbuddy to access? I'd like to remove the Avenger breakthroughs, and also the Ripjack / Shard Gauntlet breakthroughs as another mod I have bundles those with the sword breakthrough.

Dragon32: Thanks! That'll be easy enough for me to edit. A simple +1 seems acceptable as a breakthrough to me.

@Thels:
Looks like changing this mod's XComGameCore.ini is the place:
[MoreBreakthroughs.X2Ability_MoreBreakthroughAbilities]
+GRENADE_BREAKTHROUGH_BONUS=2
+HEAVY_WEAPON_BREAKTHROUGH_BONUS=2

Is there a way to edit Grenade and Heavy Weapon damage bonus to +1? This mod seems interesting, but +2 feels a little over the top.

Do they also affect the new TLP Guns btw.

The option to remove Avenger Breakthroughs does not work, I've set it to true, and I am still getting all the crappy construction breakthroughs.

I was wondering, is it possible to disable unwanted breakthroughs by any chance?

Are you going to create +Psi damage breakthroughs or add Grenade bonuses to claymore? Just wondering. Also, would it be possible to make grenade breakthroughs do +1 damage and +1 shred as opposed to just a flat +2 damage?

Uh, whoops. In that case, I'm sorry. Maybe I was confused because the picture showed a cannon...

@bstar:
Heavy Weapons are things like the Flamethrower or Shredstorm Cannon rather than the grenadiers' gun. Not sure if you're looking at the wrong thing?

"Improved Heavy Weapons" doesn't appear to work for me. I'm using RPGO which increases the base damage of cannons by two and "Weapon Tier Overhaul" which adds Laser and Coil. Afaik these are the only mods I use that change the weapons in any way.

For the armor, would it be possible to change the breakthrough to increase armor rather than HP?

Is it possible to edit breakthrough speeds? I'm a bit bored of the 10 day limit

You're welcome!

@4rrakis: Honest miss on me, thanks!

That probably means that you won't see any Spark breakthroughs if you don't have the SLG dlc and can't build Sparks.

Sorry, what did you mean by "The SPARK breakthroughs shouldn't show up"?

@pauloe7: Quote from the "Armor breakthroughs increase armor" mod page: Fully compatible with my More Breakthroughs mod.

Does this mod work with your "Armor Breakthroughs Increase Armor"?

Whatever is causing it I'm just glad both of these mods works crazy well :)

I don't know if my mod is the cause, Cahos; the only lines it changes are MaxInspiredTechTimerHours, StartingBreakthroughTechTimerHours and MaxBreakthroughTechTimerHours, set to 504000, 0 and 0 respectively.

They randomly show up but I just ignore 'em when they do.

Could this mod be the cause...

... that thing works crazy well though as I've yet to see any "Inspirations" in my current playthrough.

Hm, that's strange. I only tried it in one campaign and I never got an avenger breakthrough. Maybe it was a coincidence? Theoretically it should work, but I haven't done any serious testing on it. I'll check the code again.

Man you weren't kidding when you said the "disable Avenger Breakthroughs" optional setting is "Use at your own risk" as I did set it to true and yet I still had one of those lame breakthroughs come up in my current early game playthrough.

Added the German Localization c/o sonykhh. Thanks man!

Hi,

Here is a german localization

https://pastebin.com/UxYTkiEr

Don't worry dude, take your time ;-)

I'm quite happy now I translated all the mods I use into French, so I can enjoy a more unified experience.

The only thing left is the Mercenary Weapons mod ^^

@sebkulu, thanks man. I'll add it when I have time tomorrow.

Hi dude, I just made a french localization for your mod.
