[LWOTC] Permanent Weapon Upgrades
- Weapon upgrades are now permanent and cannot be removed, only replaced by another upgrade, destroying the replaced one.
- To compensate, the cost of weapon upgrade Proving Grounds projects and their Engineering build costs are reduced by 80%.
This is my personal tweak for Long War of the Chosen. Weapon upgrades being reusable makes perfect sense from the standpoint of realism, but in gameplay terms, if you want to be optimal with your loadouts, you have to go through incredibly tedious process of juggling weapon upgrades before every mission.
The single-buildable system of LWOTC already adds a good amount of tedium, but juggling weapon upgrades is easily the worst part of it, so I wanted to get rid of it.
Can be safely added or removed mid campaign.
Long War of the Chosen is required, obviously.
This mod OPTC patches Costs on tech templates and upgrade templates via a configurable inclusion list. It shouldn’t have any hard conflicts or incompatibilities beyond other mods also trying to patch up these Costs.
This mod is entirely configurable via:
[WOTC] Iridar’s Loadout Manager – further helps reduce the tedium on the squad loadout screen. Works well alongside this mod, since the Loadout Manager can’t add or remove weapon upgrades to weapons.
