[WotC] I'm the Commander here

Description
Background
Pure frustration over your beginning soldiers getting the worst Trainingcenter ability combinations while some random dude you got as a reward from a Councilmission has all the good ones?

Don't worry no more, as you are the Commander here this mod will let you choose any eligable ability for your soldiers to your likings for a little amount of AP of course after you build the Trainingcenter.

Extension Mod
This mod [WotC] I'm the Commander here extension will add more abilities for herosoldiers to roll naturally.
Check the mod-page for more details. (Note: This feature was earlier incorporated into this mod, but I decided to move it to a seperate mod keeping this mods functions cleaner.)

Mod config files

XComImTheCommanderHere.ini
Main-config file for this mod, see the config itself for further explonations on what the settings do.

XComClassData.ini
I included this to enable Sparks having Trainingcenter abilities and remove some abilities which are nonsense from the selection choice like Deep Cover. Also introduced AP to Sparks on promotion.

XComGameData.ini
You can adjust the number of how many TC abilities any soldier gets. Defaultsetting is still 4 and setting it 7 or above will break this mod and your game.

Compatibility
  • Works with any promotion screen (default,new,community)
  • Don't use this mod WotC: Sparks with AWC Abilities in conjunction with this one as its features are already incorporated
  • If u play with RPGO u don't need this mod.
  • Does not work in conjuction with WOTC Richards Hero Classes Rework This mod will let you do everything that mod does and even more.
  • This mod needs valid soldierclasses to work properly. If another mod let's you change classes midcampain and does not do everything correctly chances are this mod will not work for that specific soldier.
  • Should Autodetect LWOTC and behave accordantly

Gamepad support
  • to "click" the respec button he must be visible and then you open the console and type: ClickRespecButtonByConsole
  • DPAD: UP+DOWN will let you cycle through the left side choosing the ability you wanna respec (purple/psionic colored)
  • DPAD: LEFT+RIGHT OR R1+R2 will let you cycle through the middlescreen choosing the new ability (yellow colored)
  • A for XBOX OR X for PS4 Controller will accept the choice, B or O will close the screen
  • Use this mod RS for respecc for opening the respec window with a gamepad

Same Mod for other iterations of the game

FAQ
  • Everything works midcampagin.
  • if you find yourself only being able to respec the first ability plz read what I wrote under gamepad support as it describes how this mod works
  • See the change notes for what is new and has changed.
  • Should autodetect LWOTC
  • RPGO players do not need this mod.

Before making a comment about a "bug" or a "feature" not working ask yourself:
  • Did I read the description of this mod?
  • Did I look at the pictures of this mod?
  • Has my question recently been answered in the comment section?
  • If you make a comment about a bug be as detailed as you can. Sentences like "it's not working" won't enable me to solve any problem.
  • If you need extenisve support feel free to contact me on Discord: Dare#0357
  • Very technical and foremost individual problems should be asked on Discord

Permission
One may use any of my code as he sees fit as long as appropiate credit is given.

would it be possible to add some sort of "sort perks" button for people playing with xAllYourAbilitiesBelongToUs = true?
i enjoy the stupid stuff you can do by giving classes silly perk combos like Overclock on Sharpshooter, but searching through every perk you have installed to find what you're looking for is painful. being able to sort all perks by alphabetical order would be nice.

Hi, can you add the English localization file so that you can add localization to other languages?

@Elarewina

As the last update was targeted at LWOTC specifically, yes I tested it. I even made some adjustments to compensate for certain mods after user feedback. Maybe try resubscribing to this mod and / or unsubscribe to LWOTC extension mod. Check the mods you are running if they change something that this mod doesn't cover. Also in the config you can delete the rank-deck lines which should bring back the old behaviour.

Ok I figured out what the problem was. Like most problems that happen with mods, user error~ I have Iridar's Vanilla Classes Redux installed and it renames, reicons and puts that skill into their actual tree for templars way down the list (in my defense I haven't played in like two years and first time using that mod). I am confused about why some there's a blank skill in the list for cxommander's choice (and even more if I use that flag) but eh... just gonna roll with it I think.

@Dare did yoy test this update with LWOTC? After 6 oct you can respec only talents of class and can't respec lower talents (from xcom-line)
Dare  [author] Oct 27 @ 10:48am 
sounds correct. you can look at the config of the extension mod. there I add several abilities to the herosoldier decks.

So if i want to add a new skill to torque's inquisitor xcom row deck, do i just add
+Abilities2Add=(Deckname"inquisitor_random_2", Abilityname="IRI_SK_ForwardOperator")
Like this?

@Annei Sounds wierd. Never heard of this.

@Elarewina

Obv. not. Stop trolling.
Annei Oct 27 @ 8:10am 
Tried that and none of the templar abilities show up. There's a number of blank icons in the list though that I assume correspond to them. I'll probably poke at mods and see if I can find if any are specifically causing it.

Hi! Can you drop the previous version of this mod??? I was able to respec both lines of talents, but now i can respec only upper line. Wtf? I tell about basic classes
