Probably not

Are negative hack modifiers allowed in order to gain AP?

Controller support doesn't work for me

BUG?: Use Two AP to hack Advent Lamp Post to get "Distraction" (restores used AP points within the turn) -> Specialist who did the two AP hacking only gets one AP restored. Every other squad mates gets two AP back.

Also, the chance to hack did not change with two AP expenditure, at least not on the shown percentage of success on screen.

Thanks for the report and sorry for the inconvenience. A lot of gameplay mods break with the tutorial and vice versa. I've added a patch that should prevent the mod from doing anything during tutorial missions, though it may still fail if you play regular missions first and *then* do the tutorial without restarting the game.

Hey, thank you for this amazing mod. Just wanted to drop by and inform you that this mod seems to cause consistent crashing during Gatecrasher (The Tutorial variant, not the standard intro mission), specifically during the hacking section where Jane Kelly has to hack into the door to reach the Commander.

Every time I reached this section of the tutorial while troubleshooting, the moment I select "hack" the game without fail will freeze and stop responding. Once I disabled this mod, however, testing again stopped the crash.

Besides that, though, the mod works great in the game proper. It just seems to have a knack for crashing on the tutorial.

Just did another UFO , used 2 APs and no crashes this time. Thank you very much . Cheers from Brasil

I added a couple of checks that might help with crashes when the hack ends the mission, please let me know if it works.

Yep,can confirm,everytime I try to hack that would result in the end of the mission,it crash and result in me having to kill it if I try the 2 ap option.
Tried on gatecrasher (CI),normal train and UFO missions

Can confirm that, if I try to use 2 APs to hack on UFO, game crashes. 1 AP works fine.

It should work, but if it doesn't, I can't do anything about it.

kinda sad this doesn't work on controller

Interesting hypothesis, I'll check that.

LWOTC crashes after UFO hacks. Based on that and Onnes' comment, it seems like a crash when the game tries to resolve the AP cost after the mission has ended.

Now i am also getting crashes randomly after Gatecrasher (CI).

Hm, I have a consistent freeze (requiring killing process) using +1 AP investment on the "Advent Train" mission objective. This would be the last action before mission completion. Mission completes normally with zero AP investment.

Seams like the game only crashes in the first mission when playin CI. Just don t use the AP option. In all missions afterwards it works normal.
jordan shrubb 24 Dec, 2024 @ 3:46am 
as normal a great mod:)
IceColdHeart 24 Dec, 2024 @ 2:15am 
not Bad, but it is like hacking with violence and team should be revealed or cause enemy alarm.
Ayser 23 Dec, 2024 @ 9:22pm 
Incredible that it took this long for the mod to be revived. Excellent work.
Zero 23 Dec, 2024 @ 6:29pm 
Cool idea!
Iridar  [author] 23 Dec, 2024 @ 5:14pm 
That's super weird, I've been using it with no issues. Can you please upload your Launch.log from the crash for me to look at?
N7_Shadow_Merc 23 Dec, 2024 @ 1:44pm 
tried using this mod and my game crashed on the first hack, dont have anything that confilcts with it to my knowledge
ArtanisKAI 22 Dec, 2024 @ 7:08pm

I like this mod, adds more to choice and consequence.
