LW2: ShowMeTheSkills Revived

In 1 collection by LeaderEnemyBoss
Long War 2 Modlist

Description
!!! For Long War 2 Only !!!

Displays Abilities, Stats and Weapon Upgrades of a Unit in the premission squadselect screen.
ShowMeTheSkills is back. Since the original mod and its updated version seem to be abandoned, i took it upon myself to revive this beloved mod. Because individual builds in conjunction with AWC and Officer abilities are more important in LW2 than in the basegame, this should make the squad selection and loadout process less tedious!

If you use older versions of LW 2 (1.2 or older), read this: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/861432746/1291817208498867424/

Features
- Includes most of the basic features of the original mod (some options got axed because of compatibility issues with LW2's squadselect screen)
- Ability icons are colored. Commander skills are green, AWC skills are yellow in order to make them easy to spot.
- By default rank zero abilities are not displayed to save space (this option can be deactivated)
- New Feature: Weapon Upgrades are displayed by default aswell. Little dots show the quality level of each upgrade. Clicking on an upgrade slot takes you to the weapon upgrade screen.

This mod uses the Pavonis/LongWar-style mod options menu. You can edit the mod options ingame, they get saved to your ongoing savegame. If you start a new game, all options will be reset. You can modify the default options in the mods .ini file (if you dont want to set up the options each time you start a new campaign). Take note: ini files get overwritten via steam autoupdate.

On Bugs/Bug Reports
I am only a simple modder, and I make mistakes. If you think you noticed a bug, it would be extremely helpful if you can provide a savegame and maybe a screenshot.

There is a rare bug, where my mod will influence/deactivate the effect of red fog. I am not entirely sure when this occurs, so send me a save if you experience this. In my campaign red fog and the mod work fine together, so its not like they are incompatible in general.

Some players experience bugs after klicking on a soldier/empty slot in the Squadselect screen. This is most likely aa load order issue and deleting your configs usually fixes the problem.
