No Longwatch Bug And More Abilities Missing
The currently shipped default config for this mod has a few typo's contained within.

This is an oversight that causes your snipers to not be able to use longwatch, amongst other things. The mods author, Musashi, is currently taking a well earned hiatus from the pressures of modding XCOM2.

Get this mod to fix these issues:

Musashi's Mods Fixes by Iridar


Thankyou Iridar !!

And lastly DO NOT blame Musashi for these errors, they are MINE.

I failed to proofread the "updated" config file I sent him in the second to last expansion update. (Update: 18 Feb 2021 at 10:32pm) and Musashi has been unavailable to fix since

===== Original Instructions for Manual Fixing Below =====
NOTE:: THESE FIXES ARE NO LONGER REQUIRED WITH THE FIX MOD FROM ABOVE. THEY ARE KEPT HERE FOR THE HISTORY OF THE ISSUE.

GET THE FIX MOD!!


Thankfully, fixing this issue is something you can do yourself, with a simple decent text editor like VSCode or Notepad++.

Go to this mods configs and open XComAbilityToSlotReassignment

Change the config so it has the following code lines, to re-enable longwatch, the original typo was for "SiperRifles";
+WeaponCategorySets=(WeaponCategorySetName=PrecisionRifles, WeaponCategories=(sniper_rifle, vektor_rifle)) +AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=LongWatch, WeaponCategorySetName=PrecisionRifles)

Change the code for RapidFire so that your shotgun rangers can use it again, the original config locked it to Rifles;
+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=RapidFire, WeaponCategorySetName=AllMainWeapons)

Change the code for inTheZone and SharpshooterAim, so everyone can use them again, the original config incorrectly limited these to PrecisionRifles;
+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=InTheZone, WeaponCategorySetName=AllMainWeapons) ;this is serial +AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=SharpshooterAim, WeaponCategorySetName=AllMainWeapons) ;this is the Post-Hunker Aim bonus

Change the following in the psi abilities block, if they are there and remove or comment them out, as these abilities should not be tied to a weapon slot;
;+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=Solace, WeaponCategorySetName=PsiAmpLike) ;not assigned to a weapon ;+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=Sustain, WeaponCategorySetName=PsiAmpLike) ;not assigned to a weapon ;+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=Fortress, WeaponCategorySetName=PsiAmpLike) ;not assigned to a weapon

Change demolition too and remove or comment it out ... or many weapons/classes/units can't use their demolition shots;
;+AbilityWeaponCategories=(AbilityName=Demolition, WeaponCategorySetName=Cannons)

One more thing change any mentions of the "psionicrepeater" to "psionicReaper"
==========================================

Just checking this last one as it seemed odd (but may be perfectly legit):

"One more thing change any mentions of the "psionicrepeater" to "psionicReaper""

Is it meant to be "psionicReaper"? or "psionicRepeater"?

Cheers Rusty

psionicReaper << it's the weapon type from ADVENT Warlock

So I am curios, was this fixed or do i still need to go in and edit the code?

Still required, when it becomes not required the post will be updated

Thanks Rusty I appreciate you making this post. I was wondering where the Demolition ability went for some of my units.

Getting a new bug after installing this mod that grays out the normal Slash that costs one action and doesn't end the turn if there are more actions. Instead there's a new icon for a Slash that always ends the turn. Could it be because of this mod?

Possibly? Is the item a sword and from what mod is the one-action Slash (as slash has always been a turn-ending melee action)

It's not turn ending in LWOTC. It happened with a Shinobi's regular sword. Weird thing is that it was usable again after repositioning to another adjacent tile. *Shrug* It was also usable with a Gunner's knife in a different mission after moving to an adjacent tile. Might be a bug that's difficult to reproduce.

EDIT: It used to be that there would be only one icon for Slash, but after installing this and another mod, there are now two icons. I just don't know which mod is doing it. Lol

this mod will be giving you wotc "Slash" for your sword ... LWotC will be giving you "Slash_LW" for your shinobi

These are two different abilities with the same 'player facing' name, and act in different ways

Open this mods configs and change the line;
+MandatoryAbilities=(AbilityName=SwordSlice, WeaponCategorySetName=Swords)
to
+MandatoryAbilities=(AbilityName=SwordSlice_LW, WeaponCategorySetName=Swords)
and it should all be fine ... try leading with "I'm playing a HUGE game overhaul called LWotC" next time, it helps identify the issue :) lol :)

Hi!

I tried your fix but the problem is still there :(

Here is what I tried:

- Manual fix as described here: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2133397762/3048360012553485872/
Cannot do it because I cannot find the XComAbilityToSlotReassignment file

- Disabling "Ability To Slot Reassignment" mod: didn't work

- Reinstall: didn't work

Any ideas?
