Alternate Fire Modes v1.3. [WOTC]
This mod adds alternate firing modes to vanilla assault rifles: Conventional, Magnetic and Beam tiers as well as Coil and Laser weapons originally featured in Long War 2.
The 1.2. update introduced support for Resistance Firearms as well as basic support for other modded rifles of your choice. More information in the XComTemplateEditor.ini file!
Version 1.3. includes configuration for the Lost Headshot ability: it can be enableddisabled for specific firing modes in XComGameData_SoldierSkills.ini file. By default, full auto fire can headshot the Lost.
Conventional, Magnetic and Coil rifles are given the following abilities:
– Single Fire: fires an accurate single shot, deals lower damage than standard weapon fire.
– Full Auto: deals high damage at a cost of aim penalty. Uses 2 ammo points by default.
The plasma rifle ability counterparts are: Focused Beam and Overcharged Beam, respectively.
The laser rifle uses: Mode-Locking and Q-Switching abilities.
Additionally, laser rifles have a special ability: Laser Dazzle. It allows to blind (disorient) enemies with a brief laser flash. It does not end the turn, deals negligible damage and has a 3 turn cooldown by default.
Ability stats can be adjusted for separate weapon tiers in the XComWOTCAlternateFireModes.ini file.
The alternate fire modes do not deal critical damage (can be toggled in the .ini file)
This mod requires Template Master to properly add the new content to assault rifle templates.
NOTE: Coil and Laser weapon abilities were primarily tested with Five-Tier Weapon Overhaul.
This mod should also work with LWOTC, but please let me know about issues.
FOR LWOTC USERS: If some laser/coil weapons are not properly displayed, you may need to install Iridar’s LW2 Laser and Coil Weapons – Assets.
There might be conflicts with other weapon FX mods, such as Reduced XCOM/Alien Weapon FX.
