Description:

NOTE:
– ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH "WAR OF THE CHOSEN".
– Require "X2WOTCCommunityHighlander".

This mod is just the same as my original "SPARK’s Minigun", giving Sparks some big guns.

Aside from 3 vanilla tiers, this version added Laser and Coil Miniguns as requested. Default damage of all tiers have been significantly increased to balance with the weapons in Long War of the Chosen. But users can freely change weapon stats in .ini config files.

All 5 weapon tiers and Legion chassis are included so you should either use this mod or the original SPARK’s Minigun, not both.
——————————————————————————————
By default, the research line of these weapon is the same as Long War 2:
Conventional–>Laser–>Magnetic–>Coil–>Beam/Plasma.

Unlike Heavy Autocannon, you have to build individual minigun in Engineering –> Build Item –> Weapon.
After unlocking next tiers of weapon tech (Advanced Laser, Gauss Weapon, Advanced Coilgun, Heavy Plasma), more Minigun techs will appear in Proving Ground, researching these allow you build stronger version and upgrade all current miniguns to next tier.

In "config/XComSparkCannon.ini", you can also change research order.
For example, if you want: Magnetic–>Coil–>Beam/Plasma–>Laser, change the config like this:

+TechOrder = "MG"
+TechOrder = "CG"
+TechOrder = "BM"
+TechOrder = "LS"

These settings do not change weapon’s damage, so you will have to modify those by yourself.

——————————————————————————————
I advise using the original Spark’s Minigun if you only want 3 tiers but this mod is fully usable without Long War.
If you are not using Long War, due to the lack of "Advanced Laser" and "Coil Gun" tech, these minigun upgades will be available right after researching previous tier.

This mod also provide Legion armor for Sparks and cosmetic tied to that custom armor alone.

NOTE: If you are using Unrestricted Customization:
-Open Readme.txt, copy configuration lines there to "Config/XComContent.ini", or else that mod will remove Legion cosmetic.
-If you have no idea how to use .ini files and don’t care to learn. Install this mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2432560120.

SPARKs have a new animation set for these miniguns. They don’t have as many animation as human soldier, but there are still a lot, i might not cover all of them. Therefore, if you find any wonky animations or severe bugs, please comment here so that i can fix them.
