Alternate Chosen Appear Chance

Description
Expands the number-of-missions range that must pass before a Chosen will randomly appear.
Posted by request. Not to be confused with my other mod Unpredictable Chosen Appear Chance - these two mods are not compatible with each other (use 1 or the other).

The default game makes Chosen appear every 3-4 missions.

This mod expands the range based on difficulty:
Every 1-7 missions = Rookie
Every 1-6 missions = Veteran
Every 1-5 missions = Commander
Every 1-4 missions = Legend

It's possible that you could get 2 missions back-to-back where a Chosen appears. Or they might not show up for a while. Who knows? They strike randomly! This can allow for some more divergent gameplay experiences.

This mod does not affect any existing missions in which a Chosen is guaranteed to spawn (such as, story missions, Chosen Retaliation, Chosen Avenger Assault, Chosen Stronghold, etc). Also, any missions in which a Chosen is prohibited from appearing (such as, Covert Ambush, Soldier Rescue, etc) will still function normally.

--- Compatibility ---
This mod does not conflict with other mods that modify Chosen AI or abilities during missions. May not work with any other mods that modify Chosen appear chances.

For a similar mod - but for Alien Rulers, try Alternate Ruler Appear Chance.

Hey, I have tried 20/40/60/100 and it works perfectly fine. In missions without Chosen a Ruler can appear and still the Chosen fell a lot more determined and relentless.
I can only reiterate that this mod is absolutely great!

Yes, that is probably it. Like it says, you could get multiple appearances back-to-back (or not). It is working properly for me.

yes i change the percent to 0 and the chosen didn't appear
I changed it see if the mod was bugged or if i was just unlucky (I did this between posting my initial comment and you responding)
since no chosen showed up i'm now leaning more to me having horrible luck then the mod actually being broken
Alex Nares  [author] 4 Dec, 2020 @ 8:44am 
OK, I'm confused by what you wrote. You said that, after setting percent change to 0 , the chosen did not appear?
aegis 4 Dec, 2020 @ 8:37am 
about 3 (not counting a chosen assult cos in that case it would be 4)
i might be just my shitty luck i changed the apear chance for the first mission after faceing a chosen to 0 (to test if the mod was broken and they where indead spawing every mission) and a chosen didn't apeare for said first mission
Alex Nares  [author] 4 Dec, 2020 @ 7:51am 
How many missions in a row have they appeared?
aegis 4 Dec, 2020 @ 7:44am 
i swear chosen are apearing every mission
is it just my shitty luck or is the mod bugged?

At first I just thought I had bad luck but after a while I noticed that even after the appearence of Sectopods and Gatekeepers hadn`t encountered any Rulers after the story mission that introduced them. Well, this made sense because Chosen are prioritised over Rulers and indeed the Rulers showed up immedeately after the Chosen were dead.

As I said I will try again with 20/40/60/100 and if this doesn`t work I will change it to 0/33/66/100 so that Chosen do not spawn the next mission after I have defeated them in battle and hope that this opportunity will be enough to give the Rulers chance to challenge XCOM.

I will report back how things turned out but this may take a while. I won`t be able to play for at least five weeks starting next tuesday...

First of all please let me repeat that this mod was a definitive boon for my campaign and I will keep using it! Thanks again for making it!

Normally I don`t integrate the DLC missions but play them as before the Integration was possible (Viper Nest mission etc.). This was also the case in my last campaign, which I only started after I had this mod installed (and fiddled with the percentages).

It should be noted that Rulers will take a while to appear if you selected "Integrated Downloadable Content" at the start of a campaign. But for the Chosen to appear every mission, I am not sure what you did to make that happen. If you made changes mid-campaign, that might be the cause. Maybe a new campaign will have the effect that you intended.
