Description:

I am kinda new to modding games like XCOM 2, just a side note.

Basically, this mod is an unofficial update from an older and outdated version that doesn’t work with the expansion, this mod fixes that issue.

For those who don’t know, this mod makes it possible to use the Debug Camera with the keyboard. Before the original version, you needed a console controller to move the debug camera and this mod makes it possible for you to use it without a controller.

To use this mod in the game, all you have to do is enable the console in launch properties, and when the game starts, press Delete to activate it. Press it again to turn it off. You can pretty much do this anywhere like the main menu, avenger, in battle, and even in the character pool screen. Just don’t overdo it because it was originally intended for debugging and you might see some things you weren’t meant to see, but it would be useful for machinima videos or movies, or if youtubers wanted to have fun with the camera.

This is an adaptation of robojumper’s old mod and since he hasn’t said anything about an update, I decided to port it into WOTC myself. I will gladly take this mod down once he has updated his.

A word of warning though, I haven’t tested this for the non WOTC game. So I wouldn’t recommend playing this on Vanilla XCOM 2.

If you do want to play this on Vanilla, I’d use robojumpers version as it still works in the non-WOTC version.

Compatibility:
I would strongly advise against using robojumper’s Better Debug Camera along with this one as it may cause a conflict issue and crash the game.

This mod is also incompatible with improved Camera mod (Both Legacy and WOTC) as it for some reason affects the WASD keys.

This mod is also incompatible with the instant Avenger menu (Vanilla and WOTC)

Known Issues:

As of now I have tested the mod for WOTC for known bugs and crashes (e.g. Crashing after Debrief in the Strategy Layer, and crashing after exiting certain room) and confirmed that the said issues have been fixed.

However, as I am a novice game modder, I am currently unaware of any other issues concerning mod compatibility or crashes caused by other things. If you do run into these problems, PLEASE LET ME KNOW so I can make note of it.

Save game compatible:

It should be compatible with any previous saves but let me know if it isn’t.
