Description:

Ever have trouble deciding which Proficiency class GTS upgrade to get with your limited supplies? They all say they’ll grant proficiency rank 2 (or 3) regardless of character rank, but you have to already know what that gives you. This mod changes that. It adds a bulleted list of the new stuff the rank gives over the previous rank. The code part of the mod isn’t too difficult, getting the text right was the tricky part. It’s safe to add or remove mid campaign.

Text Modifications

For the most part, the GTS text is changed to match the proficiency ability help popups from the character ability screen. However, there is not a lot of room in the GTS screen, so they have sometimes been trimmed or re-worded. Nothing has been outright removed though. The goal was to be okay with it scrolling, but not okay having any bullet points starting off screen.

The information has also been normalized. Many upgrades grant new abilities, the original help popups may just say "Grants Ability", or it may give a brief summary of the new ability in one format or another. The GTS upgrade bullets all say "Ability: Ability summary" even if there wasn’t a summary in the ability popup. Also, bonus numbers in the text have all been made green (except for the ones for the Proficiency Templar, which match the pink in its ability popup) and penalty numbers are red. Numbers referring to action points or turns are orange.

Known Issues

Project LAZOR : A Proficiency Spark Class Rebalance
Uses the same upgrade for several different classes. This mod shows the default from Project LASER, but is not accurate for all Project LAZOR classes.
