PART OF THE BASE GAME - Rookies Keep Weapon Customization

Description
Copies weapon customization to the squaddie's new weapon when they are promoted, even if they don't keep their starting assault rifle.

If Alien Hunters is installed, DLC armor will preserve original armor colors and hats when first equipped. (Updated and split off into Alien Hunters Armor Customization Tweaks)

Known issues:
Class cutscenes will play without the customized weapon.

Yeah. I actually noticed it back in July, planned to split the AH stuff into a separate mod, and then completely forgot about it once I started modding again.

So with the (relatively) recent name change I'm guessing we don't need to enable this mod any more?

Done. When I have more time I'll see what I can do about getting it save hats, or at least restore them when Alien Hunters armor is unequipped.

Can you update this mod to keep armor customization after equipping Ruler armor for the first time?

Works for me

Are there any compatability issues with the new patch? This would be really convenient for the new campaign I'm going to start.

Yes, as far as I've seen. I've used Long War's SMG Pack, and the skin is saved for that weapon introduced there, so I'd assume so.

One of the most important and most wanted mods made for this game.

Should be fixed now.

@Daiggsta
The mod saves weapon customization when the rookie spawns and wherever weapon customization can be changed, then restores it on promotion. So if you give a rookie a different weapon and never recustomize it, their starting squaddie gear gets recolored according to the assault rifle. If you're asking if equipping a squaddie+ with a different weapon would keep the customization, then no.
