I've run into an issue with my base game where I won't get PCS from hacking. So I've decided to use this mod as a Band-aid. In particular, I've replaced all item lists with PCS of the appropriate level. I am, however, trying to find the best way to do this. If I replace all the Resource loot with common pcs, the items with rare pcs, and the rare items with epic PCS, then edit the item/rare item chances to be 35% and 20%, will I get

A) PCS 45% of the time, PCS+ 35% of the time, and PCS++ 20% of the time? (Or is the 20% out of the 35%?)
B) A Functional mod?

I'm going to attempt this, wish me luck.

it's a known issue about the elerium cores, something they broke with their last patch. You can just take it out of the rewards table.

2 years later but just trying this out, on the first mission i got an elerium core on a flawless reward but it didnt actually go into my inventory. Is that what is meant by "there must be at least one item in the list"? (aka i have to actually have an elerium core first to get another bonus one)
Otherwise this mod might need to be updated

So, for taking no damage, I got questions.
Can shields (Orange HP bar that isn't a trooper's health) take the damage for someone and still get the Flawless bonus?
Do hacked enemies (Turrets and MECs) when under your control, if they take damage, does that affect getting the flawless bonus?

love the event messages, but it unbalances the game completely on Veteran. Maybe do something like 75% less res on veteran, 50% on commander, 25% less on Legend. I modified mine, but i was speaking in general. Thanks!

Yeah, I had one user mention that earlier. A lot of effort to prevent one message from appearing, really not worth it at this point. You could always remove it from the localization file if you wish.

Something I've noticed is the mod can sometimes give a bonus reward message that doesn't make sense based on your current game progress. For example, I got a reward message saying that a MEC with Julian's voice came up to me and apologized for what he did. The thing is, he hasn't done anything yet on this playthrough. I don't know how easy it would be, but some kind of system to prevent certain messages from appearing until the relevant mission has been completed could be a good idea.

Doesnt seem to work with me, might try having a mod clear out for the next game I start

no, it should work with either an existing or new game - just need to have a flawless rating.

Any idea why this wouldnt be working? Do i need to go "activate" it in an ini or something? Does it only work with a fresh game and not with a already started one?

I really like this, it gives me something to shoot for but doesn't break the game. The text is all very nice and flavorful.

Thank you for responding. ^vv^

I assumed as much, however, I just want to make sure, as it could be a combination of mods.

Not that I'm aware of.

Hey, just a question, but does this mod cause issues when you research teh Codex Brain Shadow Project? When I did in my playthrough it stopped the scanning, but the cutscene did not trigger. The Decrypt Codex Brain Shadow Project was unlocked however. I was just curious if you knew anything about this XD

Works great with WOTC no bugs or crashes.

On two flawless missions I didn't get any reward pop us screen. I unsub and resub and had no issues. I am reading that Commander's choice is effecting UI screens so it may have been that effecting UI listen etc with lag so no pop up. I'm still looking in to it, sorry for requesting update. Most likely commander's choice effects.

Can you explain exactly what you are experiencing? From limited testing, it appears to be working for me.

Please update to work with Wotc if you can, once you begin to get more mods for Wotc depending on load order non Wotc mods seem to not work vs those that are Wotc/ xpack true mods.

Excellent, one more mod I dont have to touch. :)

CONFIRMED. this mod works perfectly.

recieved the rewards I did
:)

@feo Have you received rewards for a flawless mission yet, or has it just not crashed the game?

works with WotC so far

Gonna turn this off until its updated when the DLC is unlocked.

This is a great mod. Not only is it just cool to get a reward for a flawless mission, it's completely customizable and the flavor text is excellent. Thanks!

Kinda op early on but evens out late game.

Loved the Gremlin landing on its dead owners grave and powering down. Didn't expect my feels to get hit so hard, especially in xcom.

I'm interested in fiddling with the ini to include the Long War equipment and PCS', but I don't know where to find the correct names, and even if I did, I'm scared to use them in case the game borks up. Can anyone help me / give me assurances about adding those in?

This mod is pretty cool. My favorite flavor text so far is the old-model "thin men" coming out to give you some stuff because they're bitter at being made obsolete and discarded by ADVENT.

okay thanks dragon32

@frizzeldian12:
Works fine for me with RealityMachina's "Additional Mission Types", I don't use any others.

does this work with mods that add additional mission types ??

@Unforseen Lemonquences™
It worked fine for me in my last campaign when I tried out Grimy's mod. And I'm afraid you'll have to expend some effort to read this.

Does this work with Grimy's loot mod (non LW2 version)? Please comment on my profile to answer my question, I may not notice it here despite subbing to the thread :/

@darktoto: It works with LW2.

could you make a LW 2 version of this mod ? :)

Great mod thanks! It’s great to have a real incentive to play each mission to the best of your troops abilities. Only complaint I would have is sometimes the flavour text can look a little wonky with extra spaces when it chooses the random reward. And adding more rouge like reward text entries would be a brilliant way of expanding on the universe, could ask some Redditors/Redditers to pitch in? Could also add a very rare chance to recruit a friendly alien for those of us using the Playable Aliens mod.

This mod doesnt work! It never pops up! *checks mods enable* *mod isn't enabled* Oh, oops.

Great idea, thank you for the mod. :-)

I played with persisting heals for a while but found that I always have a full squad. The game gets too easy. Is there an easy way to make it give rewards on Excellent rating as well?

Honestly, just delving into it just now and haven't actually tested it yet, I imagined that the text would just automatically scroll down as per mission message pop ups or simply, character biography preview. Granted, I'm not trying to write a novel here but the messages I'm currently doing are longer than the ones you have by default, that's for sure.

I havent tried really long messages, but there theoretically shouldnt be a limit, beyond what can reasonably fit in one of those popup dialogs.

A quick question. When writing your own custom reward messages... does the length matter or I can go overboard without question?

Tiny error in the text in the localization, in the entry about a "rusty old tank" it says it was destroyed by a "Sectopad" instead of a "Sectopod".

Cheers, I will. Just need to find something else to add a bit of difficulty, to pay the cost! Balance!

Get my "Make Heals Persist" mod - flawless will happen much more often. :)

Nice job, I mostly use it for the rookies part which makes sense. On Commander dif, flawless doesn't happen much. :) I think it would be nice if Excellent rating also got a small bonus (half of flawless or something).

Love this. Not for the loot it self but for the stories that comes with it. Some are really really good.

@Krj12

I noticed a spelling error: in the file it is "Sectopad" when it should be "Sectopod" Thanks again for the mod!

Heh, some say op, but some rewards are useless, perfect balance i say for lw2. lol
