Sniper Specialist

See Update notes for changes, if already suscribed. Otherwise changes added to list below.

Sniper Specialist plays the role of a long range sniper on the battlefield. They can equip rifles as main as well, but due to Low HP not suggested. They will fire Sniper Rifle durring "Concealed Overwatch"

The ini file settings file can be changed, currently only SS_CONCEAL_CHARGES & NOSHOT_CONCEALED does not affect anything but this class. Removing ;SS_ on the others will change their abilities, but will override/conflict will other classes, best to just leave alone.

Primary Weapons:

-Sniper Rifle
-Rifles

Secondary Weapon:

-Pistol

Stat gains:

Aim +2 per Rank = +14
Str +1 every 3 ranks = +3
Mobility +1 Every other Rank = +4
Flanking Aim Bonus & Crit Chance +3 alternating Ranks (Not including First Rank) = +9
HP = +2 ( low HP +1 at Rank 1 and +1 at Rank 4 ) There has to be a down side somewhere :)

See Picture for Abilities

Start off with:

-Pistol Standard Shot (No abilities for pistols - you’re a sniper not gunslinger)
-Squadsight
-OverSight (Was Long Watch) - if Overwatch All is installed first, this will trigger properly now as did in that mod.
-Phantom

Most Abilities not changed (not sure yet if there needs to be)
-any changes made to abilities will have their names changed in some way, so they will not conflict with other classes or be confusing. Be it by code or ini settings, as changes not done this way can conflict with other mods, as the mod that loads last will override mods loaded before it.

Changed Abilities:

-Conceal = 2 Charges (Was Stealth - No other changes, Yet?)

-Run & Hide (When Triggered will allow you to conceal then run with whatever amount of action points are remaining. Cooldown = 4 turns - so on the 4th turn from when activated can use again. Currently it will seem like conceal did not trigger, but it did, it just does a check to see if you not a current target if so, ability still triggers but conceal won’t work, just the run part. Working on making conceal trigger at end of move not start.)

Warning!!!

-OverSight (Name Changed from LongWatch, as to not be confusing. Overwatch Ability will now fire Sniper Rifle while Concealed!!! Configerable in the ini, defualt to shoot while concealed.)

If you find problems/bugs please report.

Work to be done:

-Make class icon.
-Possible other icon changes.
-Possible other ability & Stat changes.

Other Mods:

Controller Class
Ranger Override (may change to non-override)
