True Ambush

Description
True Ambush allows you to queue up actions that get activated on an AI Activation, before the AI gets a chance to scamper.

Instructions:

1. Install Mod
2. Uninstall 30 Ability Icons, if installed.
3. Activate Ambush mode
4. Queue up actions
5. Exit Ambush Mode
6. Take an action to reveal the pod.
7. Watch your queued up actions be activated.


You can queue everything except Direct Movement.
Melee Abilities will use the default attack tile and not your selected one.
Queued up abilities will get deactivated if:
- The unit moves
- The unit activates an ability
- The unit queues up another action (will overwrite)
- you enter ambush mode again

Overrides:
UITacticalHUD_AbilityContainer

Incompatible with 30 Ability Icons. This mod incorporates 30 Ability Icons (with permission by -bg-), so you can uninstall the old one.
Contains a compatibility fix for LWPP.

Known issues:
Sometimes, enemies will move while the actions get executed. Looks odd, but the mod still works. Enemies still get hit by the grenades even though the scamper visualization happens.

LW2 compatibility:

Doesn't work because LW2 removes the button.
