Height Defence Bonus

Tired of having your sharpshooter easily shot down from the roof ?
With this mod enabled units firing from a lower elevation will suffer a -10 aim penalty (known as the height disadvantage).

This mod just adds a line of code that Firaxis' coder (who should get all the credit for this) apparently intended to use but eventually discarded (and left as a comment in the SDK DefaultGameCore ini file).

Bug ? : I received a bug report (thanks OmegaDerektive for pointing out) with a possible line of sight glitch allowing units to shot through floors.

However please note this bug is NOT caused by this mod.

See the official 2K "XCOM 2 Known Issues" thread: "Enemies/soldiers shots will often pass through solid walls/collision and hit their target"
