Description
This is a personal highlander I've created as a temporary measure, so I can make some mods without needing to wait on a community highlander beforehand.

What this Highlander alters
UIArmory_MainMenu and UIArmory_AndroidUpgrades
Uses a new function called IsLikeAndroidForArmory to enable the usage of android upgrades on units that aren't normal androids.

XComTacticalMissionManager
Modifies the function CreateObjective_Encounter so what team an encounter spawns into is configurable. It can also now handle spawning encounters that are more than one unit in size, and make sure an encounter objective is properly randomized if it's configured to be so.

Modifies the function GatherSpawnObjectives so mod subobjectives can successfully be used.

Adds the function MissionSubTypeSupported for the above modification.

Compatibility
For mods that do modclassoverrides of those classes, they are incompatible if they alter those functions specifically. If they don't touch how the game utilizes those functions, this highlander will work with those mods.

Known Issues
Should be none. Please report potential issues like graphical corruption, but that shouldn't be an issue for this current release.

The Helios' Highlander is a newer version of this mod with additional hooks so it's recommended to use that one instead.

Is Helios' Highlander essentially what this mod is , and more?

So quick question, I cant seem to add this mod via the mod loader for CS, it appears grayed out and cant be selected, is there a way to fix this, I really want to use this mod.

Can I attach more upgrades to weapons and armor with this mod?

Have a read of "What IS the X2WOTCCommunityHighlander?", the same principles apply to Chimera Squad, from here:
https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/X2WOTCCommunityHighlander

There can be only one.

Quick question that I don't see addressed anywhere:

What the fuck is a highlander?
