[WOTC] Tactical Options

Description
This Mod, actally contains little work from myself. I collected fixed or changed several existing other mods, and tried to make them work together in WOTC adding support for 'MOD Options Menu'. I dont want any credit and I am uploading it simply because I have seen people asking for some of these features.

The idea behid this was to put together several small improvements that allow more strategic options and better management of units in missions in a coherent way. Most of these existed in mods that were not working in WOTC, were not working as intended for me or that i wanted to be able to access in game.

Included features (and my personal contributions) are:

Objectives
----------
- Interact with objectives does not break concealment : Support Options Menu

Medikits
--------
- Stabilize a soldier with his own medikit : Support Options Menu, Support BioMedikit from Biobeasts
- Use Medikits from Downed/Dead Soldiers : Support Options Menu, Support BioMedikit from Biobeasts

Abilities
----------
-[1] Tactical Overwatch (Powerful Overwatch over a focused region) : WOTC Implementation, Support Options Menu, Support for Cannon, Balance Tuning
-[1] Overwatch all/others abilities : Support Options Menu
-[1] Hunker down all/others abilities : Implementation
-[1] Reload All ability (New ability that ignores free reloads and use a fast animation. All units reload at the same time instead of one at a time) : Implementation.
-[1] Evac All ability : On/Off in Options Menu

Specialists
-----------
-[1] Gremlins grab loot remotely : WOTC Implementation, Support Options Menu
-[1] Scouting protocol (Gremlins go to an area revealing it until end of turn) : Support Options Menu
-[1] Infiltration for Gremlins (Cost 1 action, +20 to next hack) : Support Options Menu
- Better Scanning Protocol (No charges, no action cost, 3 turns cooldown) : Implementation

VIPS
----
- VIPs are able to grab loot : WOTC Implementation, Support Options Menu
- VIPs can carry an injured soldier : Implementation
- VIPs can stabilize an injured soldier that has a medikit : Implementation

Each feature can be activated/deactivated from the MOD Options Menu.

These are the sources i used and that should receive all credit. These mods may conflict in some way with the this one:
Various Options
Evac All - WotC
Overwatch All/Others WotC
VIPs Grab Loot
Gremlins Grab Loot
Scouting Protocol WOTC
[WOTC] Iridar's System Infiltration
Smart Overwatch

TO DO
- Smart Overwatch all (all units reload and overwatch or hunkerdown)
- Free reloads anytime (Sinergy with Reload All)

ISSUES
- Currently, some confuguration changes only take effect on reestarting the game application (I will update each one i fix, that requires an insane coding time, and maybe i will only be able to go through a bunch deppending on my mood and how each feature can be implemented).

Mod Config Support:
[1] : Support In Game Configuration Change (Can be Enabled/Disabled before load a game, new game and before missions in the avenger)
[2] : Need Feedback on when it works
- The rest of features may be only updated upon re-entering the game

Something in this mod is breaking the Chosen Sarcophagus Room.
The custscene doesnt trigger only when this mod is on, and i get stuck in the room forever.

Every now and then i get warnings about a pending state not added to the history and "vip loot" being mentioned.
The less warnings there are , the better it would be. Please have a look at it.

it IS posibble to use updated version of system infiltration on top of this, you just have to uncheck system infiltration in mod in mcm and the other one will take over.

BUG: System Infiltration + hack ENemy Protocol increase your hacking skill permanent
Q 4 May, 2024 @ 8:00pm 
is there a way to add an interact w the Fulton Harness to have the ability to extract at range?

if not how would one go about adding that function in?

I am new and looking to learn so I could do it myself I just don't understand where to begin to look for a starting point.

if anybody can help: plz - i wanna do it i just have no idea how to start

So many great stuff with this but one gripe is that the smart overwatch ability makes it so that a soldier can overwatch despite using a weapon that requries two actions, in this case it's the cannon from the A Better Barracks TLE change. So is there a way to edit the config or something to disable this from the cannon entirely? Like for the Sniper Rifle and other weapons?nn

Still love this mod, but it uses an older version of System Infiltration and it's not possible to use the updated version of that on top of Tactical Options. That's a shame, because as far as I know this mod is the only one that provides smart overwatch and gremlin loot for WotC.

if you are still active just so you know for some reason the interact with objective while in stealth option isnt working

@warrior250 you can just disable every other feature in the config menu

Any chance for just the Smart Overwatch port as a standalone release?
