Does anyone have idea that how to work this mod with Weapon Upgrades Expanded WotC?
This mod can't identify properly that you only add the some properties in this XComUpgradeReminder.ini like below.

; CritUpgrade (Laser Sight)
+WeaponUpgradeChains=(UpgradeName=CritUpgrade_Bsc, ReplacedBy=(CritUpgrade_Adv, CritUpgrade_Sup, CritUpgrade_Prt))
+WeaponUpgradeChains=(UpgradeName=CritUpgrade_Adv, ReplacedBy=(CritUpgrade_Sup, CritUpgrade_Prt))
+WeaponUpgradeChains=(UpgradeName=CritUpgrade_Sup, ReplacedBy=(CritUpgrade_Prt))

It doesn’t seem to work properly for me. Most of my soldiers show the yellow icon, but I have no upgrades available for their weapons. They’re already max upgraded.

Nice mod! Very useful.
The only issue , it shows weapon upgrade needed for Psi Operative, but she has weapon fully upgraded. The others classes are fine, all the info is correct.
Thanks!

hello, i have wotc and all dlc. When I start the games it says this mod is incompatible? i haven't tried it yet so i don't know.

To add on to Zyga, I suspect using CBR Redux mod (weapon mod which some weapons may have 5 slots) also breaks the reminder, also displays reminder even though slots are full.

Still, the bug somewhat reminds me to double check things anyways lol

Works often enough that it's useful, thank you for that!

but it seems like there's an issue when you use mods that add alternate items/mod everything, the icons stick around even though theres nothing to upgrade.

Hey, thanks a lot for this mod. Small QoL changes like this are disgustingly under-appreciated.

The squad select mod is a pretty major rewrite of the screen so it's likely this mod won't work with it, no. But that mod also includes some upgrade information too, so there is some overlap between the two.

I believe he is asking below if this works with Robojumpers Squad Select. I don't see it anywhere on my screen using that mod-maybe it's just hidden somehere?

WotC: robojumper 's Squad to Select

Thanks for the explanation.

The utility function this mod uses to determine whether or not PCS are available for a soldier to use has changed between vanilla and WotC. It previously only set a particular flag if you had an empty PCS slot, and WotC changed it to be true if you have an empty PCS slot *or* you can reuse PCS (e.g. from the continent bonus), so the constant PCS icon only applies to WotC players. I'll patch it so it behaves the same way for both - the old vanilla way.

That's how it should work, yeah. Unfortunately in my (currently paused for Heat Signature) campaign it's been yelling at me the whole game. I didn't equip any PCSs before I got the reusable tech option though, so I don't know if picking that up caused it to happen.

I thought with the "reuse PCS continent bonus", the PCS icon only shows up if there's an upgrade to your current PCS available. I know that's true of weapon upgrades, at least. If that's true, then I think this is the correct behavior already. I'd want to know if there's an upgrade available..

Ah, I bet those of you with the PCS icon showing have the reuse PCS continent bonus active. I'll make an update to account for this.

@flymar That might be a problem with the base game, my WOTC campaign has had the game yelling at me to equip PCSs the entire game, even though they already have one equipped.

Green PCS upgrade icon is shown even if the soldier has PCS equipped. Yellow weapon reminder works fine AFAICT.

Update posted. Please let me know if you have any problems.

@krj12 For sure. I am almost certain I know what the problem is.

@tracktwo Glad you posted this, I was experiencing a crash on loadup for the final mission ( which I assume is what you call waterworld), and just found out that removing my "Weapon Upgrade Indicators" mod fixed it. I based that mod on this one. If you find out what the issue is that's causing the crash before I do, can you let me know? Thanks.

A quick update: The vanilla XCOM2 version of this mod more-or-less works with WotC. You can safely use it *except* for the waterworld mission, which currently crashes as reported by BlueRaja. I have a save here so I can repro it myself. The only other real problems are:

1) The bond/cohesion icon is occupying the same place as the PCS icon, so it is hidden. This can be fixed in the existing mod simply by changing the positions of the icons in the .ini file.
2) The higher fidelity of the bond/cohesion icons really drives home how crappy the ones in this mod are when they're sitting side-by-side.

Ideally I'll be able to put out a single update for the mod that will work with both vanilla and WotC and adjust the placement of the icons accordingly, but we'll see if I end up getting stuck and needing to split them.

awesome indeed.

awesome :)

Ok, that's enough confirmation for me that people would still use it. I'll try to get an update out this weekend.

I really like this mod too. Simple and so effective. Really helped me on previous campaigns to remember to upgrade when possible. I hope to see a WotC version if possible!

I too would like an update; I find that without the reminder I constantly forget to upgrade.

Also would like to hear about WotC support. :)

RJ's squad select has compatibility issues with other mods, this mod does not

I just recently finished my first WotC campaign, and since I didn't have this mod updated, I didn't use it. And with Robojumper's Squad Select, I found I didn't really miss it because available PCS and weapon mod slots are displayed right there in squad select. So for those of you that do use this mod, what do you get out of it that you wouldn't get from RJ's Squad Select? The only thing I can think of is that it doesn't tell you when one of your upgrades can be replaced with a higher tier one, but honestly I didn't miss that much either.

Don't want to hassle you, but are there any updates yet? This is my most missed mod.

Also: this mod crashes the game on the final mission. I can provide a save-file if needed.

The (not very helpful) error log is

@tracktwo: The problem is likely that the mod launcher does not properly disable mods. Ask them to try with the alternate mod launcher.

If you have to make it a new mod, you can avoid the problems of having the legacy files installed by creating a unique name/id for it apparently.

@tracktwo Sure thing. I don't want to rush you or anything:) SInce I discovered [Tab] during evac I'm not really bothered by the prolonged animations:)

@flymar I do intend to upgrade it, but if it's like evac all it may require me to make a new mod specifically for WotC. I'm still trying to track down some issues people are having with evac all before I update this one too because there seems to be some weird behavior when people are subbed to both the old and the new version. I need to figure out exactly what the problem is before I introduce the same problem in this mod too.

@tracktwo WotC did nothing to upgrades so... back to check and recheck every soldier. This mod is needed:)

This is an excellent little mod. Thank you.

I never realized how much I need this until TotC was out and it was gone. :D

Thank you so much

LW Toolbox compatible??

I just tried this mod and it is awesome! It was nice to be notified of the unimproved and non-upgraded soldiers which appear when my high-powered vets are still recovering from injuries. Thumbs up! Thank you!

@tracktwo: Confirmed, for both the yellow and green indicators :) And the fact that you can see if there is a better version of the same gun mod is indeed a plus :) (even if I prefer to mod another one and give the "previous version" to a new soldier instead of replacing and loosing the actual one)

Works well too with the WeaponUpgradeIndicators mod (indicating the tier of the upgrades installed) ... both of them are "must have", so yes: thanks for your job, guys :)

@LukeStrike: For the yellow icons, they should show as long as there are any empty spaces on the gun that could be filled, *or* no empty spaces but you have a more advanced version of an upgrade in your inventory than is on the gun right now. The second part is new to this update and was commonly requested. If neither of these are the case can you send me a link to a saved game showing an icon on a soldier you think shouldn't have one?

The PCS icon not showing when you have none in your inventory. In order to show you need to have a PCS in store, none in your inventory, and have researched the required tech to equip them.

Hello,

I have 2 issues with your mod:
- on the team selection, the first soldier is always showing a yellow icon even when its gun is already updated
- for the green PCS icon, I never noticed it, even on soldiers that are not equiped with (but maybe it is due yo the fact that I dont have some in stock any more in my inventory ?)
BTW: I'm playing in French, is there some language issues ?

Hey tracktwo. I'm working on a larger Squadselect-Mod and found a (minor but annoying) bug that I first thought to be on me. But now i am mostly sure that its actually your Upgrade reminder thats causing the issue in conjunction with LW2. Kinda funny considering LW2 is from you aswell :p. I can provide a save and everything, issue should be easy to fix. I've sent you a friends request.

Thanks for the report, but without saves or detailed repro steps there isn't much I can do. If you're doing an item that already has some mods but had open slots it may be a UI refresh issue, but I'm not certain.

So now i had a shinobi and there was no weapon upgrade symbol although i equipped a laser stengun with already two upgrades on it but one upgrade slot was free. So there is something going on together with LW2 i think. I am sorry but my save will not help you as i am on ironman later on that point. Just want to let you know.

@thalioden: I think you have to build GTS to equipp PCS. This mod also shows the PCS reminder although you are not able to equipp it yet.

I have experienced the opposite problem as Phantom in LW2. I have picked up several PCS on missions, but my soldiers are unable to equip them (I guess I haven't researched the right tech yet?). The icon shows PCS upgrades available, but I can't use them yet ...

kk if i have it again i will send a save thanks
