[WOTC] Mutually Exclusive Soldier Ranks
About This Mod
This mod makes ALL soldier rank-up perks mutually exclusive to each other in the same rank. XCOM AWC perks will still be available like normal.
This is designed to be a DIRECT nerf to the OP-ness of bonus perk super soldiers.
This also does NOT apply to Hero classes, since they follow different rules than regular soldiers. Hero classes are defined as classes added to the following config array in XComClassData.ini:
[XComGame.X2SoldierClass_DefaultChampionClasses] +ChampionClasses="<<HERO CLASS TEMPLATE NAME>>"
Configuration
- Rank-up perk choices will ALWAYS be mutually exclusive with each other. That is the point of this mod. No exclusions. (Yes, I know, you could get cheeky and add it to the Champion Class list but that may do more harm than good in the long run.)
- BUT! There are options for reducing global AP gain. You can set a config to override ALL soldier classes so that the amount of AP they generate will be reduced significantly, making the AWS unlocks more premium and less likely that a soldier "just buys them all since they can".
- By default, this mod will restrict ALL soldier classes to a flat +3 AP per rank up, forcing priority pick-ups to be driven by XCOM AP pool versus individual soldier pool.
Required Mods
Compatibility
- Should be safe to add or remove mid-campaign.
- May do odd things if using any other mod which has a listener connected to the Community Promotion Screen "CPS_OverrideCanPurchaseAbility" event.
Thanks
- LordAbizi and the LW team for examples of how to do this.
