[WotC] Strip Weapon Upgrades and Customization

Description
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
DESCRIPTION
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

This mod adds a button in the Weapon Upgrade screen to strip weapon upgrades AND customization (color, patterns, name) from the current weapon. This was seen in Long War 2, but now it's ported to WotC. Beware that stripping upgrades does not work unless XCom is allowed to either by Resistance Order, or Continent Bonus! Until then, you can only strip the weapon's Customization!

By default, this mod will strip both upgrades (if allowed) and customization from the weapon. You can customize this mod to only strip weapon customization or only strip weapon upgrades by editing this mods' XComUI.ini file.

If you have issues with this mod or spotted a bug, please report it in the Bug Report Thread. If you want to provide feedback, whether its good or bad, then post in the General Feedback Thread.

If you are thinking of downvoting this mod, please provide feedback first, so I know what I should improve on/did wrong.

I don't ask for donations. Period.

F.A.Q
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

Q: Is it safe to add this mod in the middle of a campaign?

A: Yes! You can add it mid campaign with little to no issues. It's a UI mod.

Q: I can't strip weapon upgrades! This mod is useless!

A: You have to get a Resistance Order or a Continent Bonus that allows you to re-use weapon upgrades before you can strip weapon upgrades!

Q: Thanks, but will there be a way to mass strip all weapon upgrades?

A: Maybe in another mod, if I ever do a squad management/weapon UI overhaul.

Q: Vanilla version?

A: Not really, no.

Added blacklist functionality that prevents the button from getting added in the Weapon Gunsmith menu, since there's already a button that does this.

Mod worked exactly as advertised - much thanks. Made a big difference for me mid-late game

Yes it will remove the uniqueness of the weapon and return it back to the common pool of infinite items.

So, curiosity. Let's say I have a bunch of Assault Rifles with single odd mods in them. If I were to use this mod to strip them... would that remove that weapon from the list that comes up when I go to change a soldier's equipped weapon? Or would it still be considered a "unique" version of that weapon to be displayed separately from the infinite "stack" of basic assault rifles?

@McGibblers
I believe this should be able to strip upgrades from armor and utility, provided you have Mod Everything Reloaded.

If not, I'll look into it.

That one doesn't remove weapon customization. This one removes all weapon customization and weapon upgrades with one single click.

Looks like this is going to work with a controller while the other variations of this had not (in my experience at least.) For that, I thank you!
