[WOTC] AP Farming

Description
OVERVIEW
This mod expands the vanilla feature of gaining XCom Ability Points for killing powerful enemies.

You can configure which enemies reward AP upon death and how much AP they reward.

AP will be rewarded to the XCom pool to make it consistent with the vanilla events and because bringing down a powerful foe is generally a team effort.

If the Resistance Order "Trial By Fire" is enabled, AP rewards will be adjusted.

For reference, these are the vanilla events that grant additional AP:
  • Killing a Chosen: +5 Ability Points
  • Defeating a Chosen: +10 Ability Points
  • Ruler Escaped: +2 Ability Points
  • Defeating a Ruler: +8 Ability Points
  • Defeating Julian: +15 Ability Points

CONFIGURATION
The configuration file should be in the following location:
<Your Steam Install> \steamapps\workshop\content\268500\2243081892\Config\XComAPFarming.ini

By default, the following entries have been added:
  • Defeating a Sectopod: +2 Ability Points
  • Defeating a Gatekeeper: +2 Ability Points
  • Defeating an Avatar: +5 Ability Points

If you want to add a custom enemy, you have two options:
  • Manually add a new entry for the enemy in the config file
  • Ask the mod author of that enemy to add the entry via his mod
    (this option will enable the feature for everyone using the mod)

COMPATIBILITY
This mod should be compatible with any other mod and can be added/removed mid campaign.

Just curious if anyone has a more up-to-date AP Farming ini?

Thank you!

That's vanilla. Re-read the Description

What entry needs to be added for when rulers escape rather than being defeated?

Thanks for the mod! Where can I find the correct names of the enemies used in the game, so that I could include them into the ini. file?

Can I add the Chosen whom you already get 5 AP from defeating? If I put it at 1, will I get 6, or 1? Or will it have no effect?

Here is a link to an AP Farming INI I made for those who want a guide to add for various enemy mods, including ABA Primes, Harder War, etc.
