[WoTC] Displays Of Affection - Tactical Dating Sim

Description
Introduces an all-new Affection System and fully-featured Relationship Simulator that some of you really wanted me to make.

🫂 New Affection System
After every mission, soldiers will gain (or lose) Affection based on performance, survival, and team synergy. Every decision on the battlefield now carries emotional weight. (You can see your soldier's affection in a little heart in their Armory screen)

💬 Chat With Your Squad – New Living Quarters Feature
Spend time in the barracks like never before. A new Chat System lets you talk directly with your soldiers between missions. Choose from professional check-ins, casual conversations, flirty banter, or deeper, emotional talks.

💞 Full Romance Progression
As affection rises, unlock a range of relationship paths—from respectful camaraderie to close friendship, romantic involvement, and even marriage proposals. XCom2 is now a dating sim!

Personality Perks
High-affection soldiers unlock unique passive perks. Customizable in the .ini (or if you prefer the mod to be cosmetic only these perks can be turned off entirely). Perks made by me and trneedaname.

📷 NEW Assign Custom Portraits
With the button in the lower right corner of the chat box you can assign any of your posters for a soldier to use. (Since these are files in your documents folder, you can edit them in paint and get any image you want loaded into the game.)

💌 Commander... they trust you with their lives. Will you earn their hearts?

I have not disabled portrait generation if you have a portrait manually set. It will always generate one to have as a backup. So yes, no matter how many times you delete the autogenerated poster it will come back. You don't need both posters but you'll get both posters in case you delete the user portrait.

I understand what you are saying but it somehow seems to be connected

I have assigned the new custom poster as shown in the images above. When I delete the portrait that was randomly generated with this mod, it shows the chat screen poster with image containing text that says it is there to prevent deletion of all posters and randomly generates another poster in the photobooth as before. Then I leave and enter the chat screen again and it shows the assigned custom poster as it should. Basically from what I tested, it requires me to keep the randomly generated poster from this mod.

I don't understand. The manually assigned poster isn't connected to the auto-generated one. As long as the manually assigned poster is not 000 and it's User created it should work.

I tested the mod and it works but has one minor issue. I have to avoid deleting the random poster made by the mod. Need both that and the custom photo for viewing the custom photo. Otherwise I am unable to see any photo on the chat screen made by this mod.

It's important to keep in mind that in order to load custom images as portraits. You must edit a pre-existing portrait. You can't just add a png to the folder and expect it to work. Make a poster first and then edit it. Also Poster_000.png is reserved as the default reset you can't use that filename.

New update with a new highly requested feature. You can now set Portraits for soldiers manually. See the new mod image for instruction.

LLM integration when?

That makes sense then.

Would you happen to know if maybe mods that edit the photobooth could interfere with the deletion process? Like I use some of the custom poses mods.
