Load from Characterpool - Templar & Spark Fix

Description
Just a quick and dirty fix for the original "Load from Characterpool" mod, which didn't work for Templars and Sparks due to them using their own versions of the Unit Customization screen.

This mod can technically be used without the original mod, but as i don't want to take credit for another persons work and don't have permission from the original mod author to republish their mod, this mod applies ONLY to Templars and Sparks. You still require the original mod for all other soldier classes. It would have been preferable for them to fix this themselves, but since the last update of the original mod was 5 years ago, that doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon, so i decided to publish this fix myself.

NOTE: If the mod doesn't work for you, try to use the alternate mod launcher. If that also doesn't work, check if you are using other mods that might be making changes to the customization screen as well. I tested this mod with Unrestricted Customization and it worked, so that mod should be compatible, but i can't guarantee that it will also work with other mods of this kind.

Also since this is just a quick and dirty fix that i made to be able to use the original mod with my current playthrough, don't expect updates or bugfixes. This is a private project i decided to publish since i have seen many other people complain about this issue on the original mods steampage.

This mod works great, thank you, just curious as to what I need to do in order to get this fix into the Load from Characterpool? I am not sure what is broken, but I cannot get it to work, but this works perfect.

@TheNiXBestThing You should try the following...

How to clear your config:
1) Delete/Rename Config folder in ...\Documents\My Games\XCOM2 War of the Chosen\XComGame
2) Start the game with mods via AML.
3) Once you reach the main screen, quit to desktop.
4) Launch the game again.
5) Go to Settings and do all the settings you need e.g. graphics, video and more importantly MCM (if you have MCM installed).
6) Quit to desktop.
7) Launch the game again.

My advice is if you modding at all... Always use AML. If your still having trouble you may want to ask on the XCOM 2 Modding Discord. Friendly folks that are very helpful for troubleshooting mod issues.

Dunno if I've messed something up somewhere or what, but I get a CTD after the opening videos before hitting the main menu when I have this loaded up. Other mods work fine, but ive tried this with and without other mods and it crashes regardless. I've also tried AML to no avail.

Hey man, yes you are correct. I didn't test Sparks so i didn't see that they also didn't work. I just published an update that includes the fix for Sparks as well. You were exactly right with the UICustomize_SparkInfo Class.

Nice work dude... looking at your fix.. the same would need to be applied to SPARKs ? as they use their own UICustomize_SparkInfo too ..

Hey everyone, please keep in mind that this is a private mod that i just decided to release because i thought it would be helpful to other people. As such i will not be providing any in-depth support and it's unlikely i will fix any major bugs. As always, make sure to keep a backup of your savefiles. It's very unlikely for a mod to destroy your savefile but better be save than sorry.
