UI Mod for Defense/Mobility/Psi

Description
Mods the UI to show some useful (at least to me) information.

- If you have equipment or an ability that boosts or penalizes your (normally hidden) Defense stat, it will appear. This also shows the Defense stat for SPARKs.
- If you're using a katana or other secondary weapon that grants a mobility bonus, you will see the mobility bonus.
- If you're using a mod that lets other classes carry a Psi Amp, you'll see a Psi stat even if you aren't a Psi Op.

Also, if you're using a melee weapon from a mod and getting a false +20 or so aim bonus and it doesn't seem like the modder is going to fix it properly, you can set HideAimBonusesFromSwords to true in XComUIModification.ini and it will go away.

Important note: This mod overrides UISoldierHeader so will probably break if something else does also.

This version works with WOTC, but has minor flaws. A version built for WOTC (that corrects these issues) is here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1281427768

@Lux Manifestus
The biggest issue was just that it wasn't displaying Will in the new WOTC way. I made a couple of other small fixes but that's the main thing.

Out of curiosity, what problems was this causing in WOTC?

If you're using this with WOTC I'd recommend to switch to this version whenever you're able to.l

(I'm not sure how well switching will work in the middle of a campaign...)

You are really something!!!

Sounds great!

As long as that mod doesn't also override UISoldierHeader (and it doesn't seem to) they should work together fine, and you should get a Psi stat for your soldiers.

Anyway, Defense is shown if it's not 0, and if there's not enough space, and Armor is 0, it will bump Armor in favor of showing Defense. If you're saying you'd rather see "Defense: 0" by default, I guess at some point I could make that an ini option, but it doesn't do much, practically speaking.

Does this mod work with [WoTC] XCOM Psi Overhaul, show the psi ability for gifted soldiers? Would you consider replacing the armor stat with defense and showing defense stat constantly?

The issue you raised was actually a good idea, though. So if you do actually run into that problem this mod will be able to help.

No clue. I cleared out the Config folder, and those stats aren't showing up anymore, only the mobility. Sorry for the false alarm.

What melee weapon are you using? Is it from a mod?

I ask because all display of bonuses from melee weapons is supposed to be suppressed anyway. I actually had to work around that to show the mobility bonuses from the katana pack swords.
