More Starting Resistance Order Cards

Description
Just what it says on the tin - Increases the number of Resitance Order Cards you get when you first meet each faction.

vanilla gives you 2.
this by default increases that to 4.
this can be changed in the XComGameData.ini config file.

each faction has a potential 17 (or 18 for skirmishers) cards, but you also get some from improving influence, covert ops and continent bonuses. I don't know what the highest "safe" value is.

there's also an optional bit in the config which will give each faction +1 card slot.

Also I forgot it only works on a new game.

For anyone who think this doesn't work it's just this game being euro jank tier. Most mod configs get ignored on new generated and you must edit the ini files in your documents/games/xcom/wotc/xcomgamedata folder. And then change +NumCardsOnMeet=4 in that file to. This is because some config will be generated only off the vanilla files.

This "by default" does not work. You literally have to change the values in the .ini file.

For anyone editing their steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1578816491\Config\XComGameData.ini make [XComGame.XComGameState_ResistanceFaction] retains it's NumCardsOnMeet value above 0. If you set it to zero, the initial meeting via Covery Ops will read "Days Remaining 0" and then "Days Remaining -1" as time passes.

This doesn't work for me, and that makes me sad. :(

I mean: you don't need to change the numbers, just uncomment them, yeah?

Using the XCOM2 alternative mod launcher, but same function: highlight the mod, hit the config tab, and use the dropdown menu to select xcomgamedata.ini -- and just uncomment both of those last two lines so the specific factions all get 3 slots?

Just finished a campaign with about 280 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up, this definitely cuts down on the grind a bit.

The optional extra card slot does work, though I agree with the assessment that you shouldn't increase it past 1. I doubt the resistance order interface has a scrollbar installed. Besides, with all ring upgrades and full influence, it should give you 12 orders total, 9 restricted to faction-specific (i.e., Reapers can only have 3 Reaper orders, etc.) while the Ring's slots can be mixed. Very useful.

No Guardian Angels on current run, though I did start with heavy equipment and I'm almost finished excavating the Avenger now.
