Ask Long War.

I wanna add in a mobility penalty to blend with Long War's equipment. How do I do that?

The molotov icon seems to be bugging out for me. I'm getting the missing icon "img" texture for it.
Iridar  [author] 17 Jun, 2024 @ 3:23am 
Again, this is mentioned explicitly in the mod's description.
Iridar  [author] 17 Jun, 2024 @ 3:22am 
You should not be able to do that all, the mod has code that should be preventing it.
Dragonzan10 17 Jun, 2024 @ 2:00am 
Or maybe it was the fact that i lunched the molotov with grenade luncher?
Dragonzan10 17 Jun, 2024 @ 1:49am 
I see, sorry maybe it was just not playing nice with all the mods i had installed and it bugged out.

@Dragonzan10
It does not attract the Lost, it's literally in the description.
Dragonzan10 16 Jun, 2024 @ 5:27am 
Wouldn't it be better if the molotov wouldn't attract the lost, so it can replace the grenades on those missions?
Dood! 16 Apr, 2024 @ 2:25am 
This simple mod has saved my butt on more than one occasion! Early game, for those hard to beat enemies like mutons, set them on fire!
Iridar  [author] 23 Jul, 2023 @ 5:58am 
@hottt3
No, this is fire damage, not explosion.
hottt3 23 Jul, 2023 @ 5:43am 
Thanks for the mod! Do these grenades destroy corpses?
Stolas 8 May, 2023 @ 9:00am 
True lol, my mistake. =P
Iridar  [author] 8 May, 2023 @ 6:36am 
The Incendiary Grenade is the intended progression for the Molotov.
Stolas 8 May, 2023 @ 4:26am 
Wish you can upgrade the molotov to be stronger. =<
(Like if you researched a Muton or those spider things it buffs the molotov blueprint)
Iridar  [author] 30 Nov, 2022 @ 11:13am 
I don't recall if that config file has an array of Molotov's abilities. If not, you can do it with Template Master or Weapon Skin Replacer. But first you have to actually have the ability. You can generate it with one of the Boundir's mods.
Leenday 30 Nov, 2022 @ 10:36am 
@Iridar
How do you attach an ability like that? Do I modify xcommolotov.ini?
Iridar  [author] 12 Nov, 2022 @ 7:58pm 
Attach a passive ability that reduces mobility.
nebulus 12 Nov, 2022 @ 11:08am 
Great mod! Any way to give this a -1 Mobility effect?
modifieda4 28 Oct, 2022 @ 8:21pm 
thank you for making this mod, i love going on lost missions with molotovs in the loadouts!
Iridar  [author] 28 Jul, 2022 @ 9:40am 
Sounds like a mod conflict.
Nero 28 Jul, 2022 @ 5:46am 
Nevermind it seems like it very rarely crash, the small issue where they sometimes skip throw animation still happens though
Nero 28 Jul, 2022 @ 4:32am 
Nevermind it seems that the problem is not consistent but it does happen 1 in 6 times, it will sometimes even skip the throw animation and left the target ground to immediately burn
Nero 28 Jul, 2022 @ 4:20am 
my game froze when i threw the molotovs at the lost, it used to be fine to do so
Mike 19 Jan, 2022 @ 12:42pm 
You are the absolute best for making this!!!

@Iridar
Added a German translation for this small but very useful mod.
Just in case you want to add it, here is a download link:

Sorry.
Iridar  [author] 19 Dec, 2021 @ 9:11am 
The compatibility section of the description should have been pretty explicit. At least try reading before you ask, please.
Iridar  [author] 19 Dec, 2021 @ 9:10am 
@SgtoPereira>>>
Same as pipe bombs - yes. They're gonna hella powerful in LWOTC, though.
SgtoPereira>>> 19 Dec, 2021 @ 9:09am 
Hi. Compatible with LWOTC? Thanks.
XpanD 27 Aug, 2021 @ 8:01am 
Just finished a campaign with about 280 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.
HotelCharliHill 20 Aug, 2021 @ 5:42am 
perfect. for aesthetic's sake i will remember to put items like that in "grenade" slot :)
Iridar  [author] 20 Aug, 2021 @ 4:52am 
@HotelCharliHill
The soldier takes whatever is on their belt for the throw animation. Belt can display only one thing in that slot, so if the soldier has both a grenade and a molotov equipped, there's a good chance the animation will show a grenade when throwing a molotov.
HotelCharliHill 20 Aug, 2021 @ 3:06am 
you mean from Utility slot mods? might be. I don't just put throwables in the Grenade slot so if htat's an issue that's probably it.
Iridar  [author] 20 Aug, 2021 @ 1:46am 
@HotelCharliHill
Does this happen on soldiers that have an actual grenade equipped into any slot?
HotelCharliHill 20 Aug, 2021 @ 1:25am 
Any idea why when the device is in the hand of my character doing the throw animation it is a grenade but then transforms into a molotov bottle in the air? other than that, very cool
Gladiator 5 Apr, 2021 @ 2:19am 
Unsubscribed due to a bug which shows 2 molotovs in separate boxes in my soldiers inventory in the battlefield. One works and the other says (missing something, i cant remember now) so when i throw the buggy one, it does no damage.

Im using a controller and RPGO.

@Psykrom
Feel free to balance the mod in the configuration files.
Psykrom 3 Jan, 2021 @ 3:37am 
Very cool but the burn seems a little strong? Is there really an issue with invisible spread of fire as someone mentioned below?
KT Chong 30 May, 2020 @ 12:25am 
@Iridar In the Windows version of the game, most every item in a soldier's inventory menu would show a little red "X" button/icon. You can click on the "X" to remove the item from the soldier's inventory. Your molotov item does not have that little red "X" for removal.
Enigmatic 13 May, 2020 @ 10:37pm 
yeah tile snapping is annoying but it's a new 'improvement'
Iridar  [author] 29 Apr, 2020 @ 12:24pm 
@kenanthebarbarian
This mod uses the same targeting methods as grenades. I don't have a custom targeting method that I could configure to have tile snapping on or off.
kenanthebarbarian 23 Apr, 2020 @ 5:40pm 
@Iridar Is there a way to disable tile-snapping targeting for these? I was looking in the configs for -bg-'s [WOTC] Suppressable Targeting Abilities mod but didn't see anywhere to add modded, throwable explosive types.
Haybusa 29 Aug, 2019 @ 11:36am 
Great mod only issue is that it blasts my ears when I toss this thing, but I think everything else is flawless
eDen'S_bLiSS 2 Jun, 2019 @ 12:21pm 
Da molotovs are really useful when flushing out bunkered hostiles. As an example I can tell, I managed to fry the pork out of the chosen hunter as my 7 men team surrounded him in a ravine... Rarely have I felt I can force them on the defensive...This was a most welcome change...
The Blue Savior 12 Mar, 2019 @ 2:13pm 
This mod is great! But I'm getting a bug where the fire is invisible. Any fire that is created from it spreading is visible, but the initial fire is invisible.
Alpha115 9 Mar, 2019 @ 9:09pm 
Another 10/10 mod iridar. These things make rookies great for dealing with early lost.

Added, gracias.
