Fixed error in Tracer's GameData_CharacterStats.ini

Description

The leader of the resistance cell known as "Overwatch" has reported that one of their members have been captured by ADVENT, and has requested assistance from XCOM...

Basically a Rescue VIP mission coded to appear around May to June (and at one higher difficulty level than normal), where the reward unit is Lena "Tracer" Oxton, who comes with her own skill tree. Requires a new game in order for the scanning site to be able to appear.

Squaddie perks are Salvo (basically to enable dropping her pulse bomb and blinking back), Blink and Recall, albeit Blink and Recall are effectively teleports with limited movement and in the case of Recall, it's a teleport that should heal Tracer's damage taken when used.


Known Issues
Probably horrendously balanced since a large chunk of the idea of this mod was "I wonder if I could do this" and not "how /should/ I do this".

There's no animation for Blink and Recall (not even the teleport animation) since I have absolutely no idea how animations work in the backend.

Customization will look wonky when equipping new armours because CharacterTemplate.ForceAppearance is no match for the power of XComGameState_Unit going YOLO when picking new cosmetics for the armour you just equipped. Install this mod to fix it if you don't mind having a mod that overrides XComGameState_Unit.

If the mission isn't spawning, just to double check, clear out your config files in your Documents\My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config folder. Game doesn't tend to like alterations to XComMissions.ini when it's not regenerated.

Tracer has invisible weapons in the rescue mission. I have no idea why, so just er, pretend she actually has her pulse pistol and not just the stats of a pulse pistol when she's firing on people.

@Angel of Chaos You’d have to make your own version of the class. I forget how you do it off hand, but I know there is a template on how to make a class in the workshop. I think it’s by Richard, but don’t hold me to that. You should just need to follow it, but making sure to use asset compatible with WOTC. Once you you’re aquatinted with the basics, you can probably peek at something like the Akimbo class to get an idea how to make a class like that. (More so when the mod it’s based on supports duel pdws, since Tracer’s pulse pistols haven’t been ported yet, to my knowledge.)

Is there a way to add Tracer's Chronomando class itself to the game for WOTC? I'd love to fix it so I can have her in game, even if I can't do the mission. I found a way to make it so that certain custom classes don't show up randomly, only on those that come from the character pool. It would be nice to get unique units like her ingame.

This mod is semi compatible with LW2.

That means it works normally, it won't delete your game or mess up your files. The problem is that you can't use pistols as a secondary in LW2 thus meaning Tracer's pistol skills will just have her point at the enemy and will waste an action. Also Tracer doesn't have the three slots for equipment that most soldiers do. She has the standard one and the with medium armor 2. That is all. Vigilo Confido commanders.
