Ammo and Vest Slots

This version is for the VANILLA XCOM 2. Version for the War of the Chosen DLC is here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1123704945

Adds:
- Extra Ammo slot (can be disabled from ini)
- Extra Utility Slot (can be disabled / number can be increased via ini, not for SPARKs)
- XCOM Shirt Item which grants +5 Will bonus to user (Will bonus can be changed / can be disabled via ini)
- Building Experimental Armor now requires one Nanofiber Vest to be built (can be disabled via ini)

My motivation for doing this mod was that I finished the game as Legend / Ironman and it turned out that I really didn't use more than one ammo and vest item during the whole game play. As I think that they're pretty great items over all, I wanted to create a mod which would allow me to use them more.

Strategy game balance will be slightly tweaked as Nanofiber Vest has been set as a requirement for Experimental Armor (bigger impact as it's more expensive).

Tactical game balance has not been tweaked at all, the extra slots will make combat easier and so it is recommended that if you want to have more balanced experience, install a mod that directly adds difficulty to the tactical game, ie. Increased Enemy Squad Size etc

MOD recommended:
High Quality Rounds, adds early game ammo so you have something to add on those slots

Configurable from XComAmmoAndVestSlotsV2.ini (found in mod installation folder):
- disable nanofiber vest build requirement. Change ExperimentalVestReq = 1 line to ExperimentalVestReq = 0
- remove specific ammo slot by changing HAS_AMMO_POCKET from 1 to 0.
- remove one extra utility slot shown in squad selection by changing HAS_VEST_SLOT from 1 to 0.
- After removing your old vest items, you can now remove the deprecated vest items button by changing SHOW_VEST_BTN from 1 to 0.
- Choose your icon colors from available options in the ini. Check the ini for available options.
- Remove XCOM T-Shirt.
- Add dummy vest slot icon for those who do not want to use the T-Shirt.

Known bugs:
- Utility items will change position when replaced in inventory, except for the first slot.
- After v3.02 sometimes your units from older save won't have extra utility slot. It should get fixed after you switch his armor.

This mod could not be done without all the examples and code snippets around in forums and reddits. Thanks for everyone who shares information. :)
