Thank you sooooo much! You just saved my 20 hours of effort!

In a guerilla ops mission, I restarted a mission, which caused two Warlocks to spawn in the same mission, instead of one… 😓

Would be great if someone could update this mod for LWotC!

This mod causes a strange bug with supply raid missions (with crates) where if you restart during a supply raid mission (with crates), duplicates of the supply crates that can’t be marked are placed around the map. Real confusing. Sadly, it doesn’t look like this mod will be updated anytime soon.

@Ravn7 I just noticed the other day that Iridar already made that mod: Mission Launch Autosave https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2847584316

I'm guessing this was not meant to be used in the tutorial, as it freezes the game when I try to do so

Is it possible to make an "automatic save on mission start" mod?

@Kaz the Mercenary So, you're having an issue, with a MOD made in 2016, for the BASE game...while playing a BETA OVERHAUL mod, made for the DLC, still being worked on... and you're wondering when THIS mod will be updated to support??? ;)

I'm getting a crash every time, trying to play LWOTC, which surprised me.

Any chance for a bugfix?

thanks for this! Today I just started round 4 and went to move to the next squad member but accidentally hit 'End Turn' and lost four of my guys it was terrible.

@Turban Are you in Ironman mode?
If so you need to change a value in the .ini file to see the Restart mission. See the description

Not working. Restart option not even in menu.

It has started to do the same thing as Zwagoth's restart mission mod. " Passive perks and bonuses were being removed from xcommies and that would sometimes persist into the strategy game and armory when they returned to base".

Somethings going on with this mod. I changed false to true for my ironman game and set it to read only as it kept reverting to default false. It was fine but today it either isn't loading or somethings upset it

This mod saved my ironman/legendary run on the final mission in WOTC. A repeater triggered an Execution on the first Avatar in the last stage. This is a known glitch; the mission becomes unwinnable because none of the other Avatars will spawn. Three turns later, my autosave was well and truly overwritten. This mod allowed me to restart, saving my run and getting my achievements.

Cannot find XComRestartMission.ini, something up with that?

your mod's broken

log shows that using restart makes it hang on a command it can't process

Sounds pretty cool

is it possible to make restart button , but instead of restarting the same mission with the same enemy pod possitions and all of that stuff, it wil instead randomize position values. Cause its a little bit cheaty otherwise. Thanks!

Yes. Without gamepad control very uncomfortable. Could you implement it, please.

@Tkyl
Please update this MOD
Or simply adjust the Restart Mission position
Do not let it be at the bottom because the controller can not be selected

controller cannot be selected to restart Mission

Work whith WotC?

it works with WotC

need update for WotC

i waiting you

oh yeah, right, that's what i didn't sub (bug)

Mod works fine, works for long war too. I tested it on a horrible terror mission and my guys still have their perks too.

Losing perks makes this mod a no-go for me...
...otherwise, good idea.

mod doesnt work lul

Can anyone give an update on how it works with LW2? Struggling to find a functioning bronzeman mod

Thank you very much for this mod. The game bugged out on me. I wasn't able to pick up my soldier that was bleeding out and since I tried it with my every unit, most of them died because of that. I was so pissed. Thanks a lot. Definitely recommending this mod.

Please update

Really wish this mod could be updated and fixed. Despite me knowing better, I can't help but smoke and drink when I play this game and after losing 2 ironman games on hardest difficulty, its heartbreaking and only leads to more drinking and smoking.... and that doesn't help. LOL

Can you please fix your mod.

For some reason when I restart using this button, I end up with 2 actions missing for each sodlier, basically skipping my turn

love having a restart button, but losing passives/random crashes after attempting a restart makes it hard to recommend right now

From examining the Firaxis code a bit, think the problem lies in the downloadablecontent file - needs an additional call to check mods/skills/etc when loading/reloading tactical maps, not just save files or the campaign map transitions between tactical/strategic maps. Sadly, I have no idea how one would do that - might need advice from a good Unreal coder?

for me the game crashes when i subscribe to that mod. latest mac version. i need a restart button!

@Invisigoth and @Zero-Gabriel : I think you'd want to look at mods that change both the amount of Dark Events and the timer for Events. That, or something which increases both the available time to complete those missions and prevents the completion of one to drop the others.

Small bug with this - seems related to the issue where soldiers can lose their perks - I've been playing with a few mods and this, and one that gives an extra ability to all soldiers (steady aim) seems to get removed if I restart until the next mission. I'd assume it's something to do with calling other mods to be loaded - might just need a line in the DownloadContent file to force-load mods, templates, etc on a restart of a mission in the same way it does when you load a save without them on or start a new campaign.

Oh, and I tested if it did the same thing with those mods/abilities without this mod turned on in the first mission's restart button, and it did, so looks like Firaxis messed up the original restart button themselves.

Does the bug with soldiers not having persk for the time of the mission have only cosmetic effects or do they literally become skilless?

Why on earth did Firaxis forget to include this? Mega thanks for making this.

Interesting fact:
When restarting the avenger defence mission all the default soldiers I chose lost their perks, but the additional soldiers that arrived with each turn did not loose anything

I think the bug exist also in vanilla. I had lost all abilities when I restarted the Avenger defense mission (with vanilla restart option).

Sooo, are you going to work on that bug?

@Invisigoth
I LOVE that idea, more Challenging... and I'm greedy that way.

is it doable creating a simple mod that allows us to grab and do all the 3 guerrilha ops missions instead of just one?

to everyone whining that this mod ruined your save, its not the mod. If you use the restartlevel through the console on an ironman playthrough you WILL lose all perks/skills/additional HP through equipment etc, but ONLY for the mission. After the mission its all fine again. So its the fault of the game itself, not the mod.

Nevermind, I figured out what was wrong. I had to re-subscribe and that reset the changes to the .ini file. So it was working, but it wasn't activated for Iron Man.

I'm confused, is the mod still broken? pity, i liked it
