Anyone know if this still works? First time playing this game so would not know

@don cheadle it effects both although it may be outdated with new patches.

sorry if you've answered this before, but will this mod also apply to the flashbang rounds for the MGL?

thanks so much for this much needed mod, looking forward to giving it a try.

Great rework. But it seems I can still obtain free move even if my merc is disoriented

Mod editor oddities basically when I first generated the mod I generated the new status effect in the combateffect editor mod tool. When I later recreated it in the mod instead of generating a new effect it was referencing the one stored in the mod tool. So when I was testing it everything worked fine as I still had the original effect saved locally in my mod editor. For other users it was trying to reference something not present causing the lockup. Only way I could make it work was deleting any trace of the effect from my PC and rewriting it lol

@rock Flag & eagle awesome, about to try it! May I ask what the issue was?

Lockup issue should be fixed if you were having said issue please let me know if everything is working for you now!

@vidmeister i figured out how to recreate the issue i am working on the fix as we speak.

Okay same problem still persists with the humanoid legion enemies in Port Cacao. The game becomes unplayable after an enemy is flashed, basically I can click everything and the sounds work, but the grid disappears and I cannot actually take actions, it just has the sound cues for stuff like overwatch and take cover.

I was flashing hyenas in this case together with Legion goons. I used Blood to throw it as his first throw action (the perk gives you a lower cost for the first throw with him). None of my guys were flashed. Anything other info I can provide to help troubleshoot? I think it could very well be due to the Hyenas, as they are an animal? I am about to try it on human enemies now.

@vidmeister It still should show suppressed i did not alter that instead of suppressed+tired it now applies Suppressed+Disoriented. Help me trouble shoot here are you in or out of combat when this happens are you flashing your own mercs or enemies.

@Rock Flag & Eagle Sadly same bug as the others, after throwing a flashbang my game locks up and I cannot do anything. The UI also still shows supressed as the applied status effect when the grenade explodes (not on the characters, but the text that appears and floats away over the chars). Only using mercs reloaded, weapon rebalance and dual wield bug fix otherwise.

but if you do use them out of combat it should not lock up characters simply cause the status effects to hang until you enter combat.

@hazard i cannot recreate this the only issue at all it sounds like a mod incompatability but none of those mods sound like they should be touching anything near this. The issue with using flashbangs out of combat is the effects will last until you enter combat. This is a limitation of the default flashbang as the triggers to remove it are turns passing or combat ending neither of which happen out of combat.

I had only Inventory Size Rebalance (Mild), Better Zoom Mod and Loner Quirk Bug Fix active when I tried this, but at least when testing on other mercs outside of combat, the merc using a flashbang seemed to get stuck/become nonresponsive.

@badazzyellabro that makes sense this mod touches very few files so the only thing that could conflict are other things directly changing flahsbangs.

Quick test and no issues after using flashbang. So appears to be conflict with PR Grenade mod.

Think I may have had the PR Grenade mod active when it happened. I disabled all the PR mods due to text not being English. Will test without that mod and let you know if it still happens.

If you are having that issue please let me know what mods your using. Mod is safe to add or remove whenever so if your getting that conflict just remove while I figure out what it is

@baddazzyellabro @wolfe are you using any other mods effecting explosives?

Wonder if it's a conflict with another mod. Restarted game and disabled this mod. Able to continue from my last save without issue. This mod causes game to freeze after using flashbang.

Now if you can apply this change to the reckless assault/rush perk.. OMG, that would be gods work!!!

Same situation here, used a flashbang and could no longer do anything. Had to alt+f4 my way out of the game.

same issue, could not even end turn or go back to main menu. have to force quit

Installed this mod and first time using flashbang in game, no more actions allowed. Couldn't shoot, setup overwatch, nothing.

Thank you so much! i hated wasting time resting because of this.

Thank you, this was the most annoying thing in the vanilla playthrough I just finished. Made no sense to me, that flashbangs made you tired but even getting downed and recovered still left you with all your AP. Made some of the later battles in the game with longer maps and tight corridors downright exhausting.
