Description:

Based on Hacking: Action Point Investment by robojumper, this mod allows to invest additional Action Points while hacking to increase the success chance of the hacking attempt.

While hacking, use two small arrows at the bottom of the hacking screen to change how many Action Points you want to invest. Only Action Points that are not required for the hack itself can be invested. For example, if hacking takes 1 AP, and the unit has 2 AP, then you can invest 1 AP. If the hack is turn-ending, the extra AP are invested automatically.

Increase the amount of investable Action Points by giving the unit additional Action Points via abilities like Run And Gun, Inspire and Combat Presence.

This mod can be used as an alternative or as a companion to my [WOTC] System Infiltration.

REQUIREMENTS

Can be safely added or removed mid-campaign, even mid-mission.

COMPATIBILITY

This mod modifies hacking UI by replacing MouseGuardClass on the UIHackingScreen vis a UI Screen Listener, and will be incompatible with any other mod that would try doing the same for whatever reason.

I did my best to make this mod compatible with all potentially existing hacking abilities, but obviously only abilities that actually make use of the Hacking UI will be affected.

May have weird interactions with abilities that make hacking temporarily free or otherwise refund action points spent on a hack.

Should be compatible with LWOTC, but I haven’t tested.

This mod has controller support, brought over from the original robojumper’s mod. Use Up / Down to change the amount of action points you want to invest.
