I would love to even have the chance of making it myself

does robo still make mods?

No :( and I miss this mod!

no one picked this mod up?

WOTC please?

tryed it out on WOTC , sadly it's not working anymore :( was one of the best mods out there

Is there a chance for a wotc update @robojumper?

Wotc vers would be cool. Unless you're done modding.

WOTC pls! UP!

Restarting a playthough on wotc and sad I can't use this! :(

Please WOTC

@Richard For Ponies: Actually, MOST of them in XCom2 are what you wrote last. BARELY any of them are supposed to be properly trained. That was XCom: EU/EW.

I can't believe this isn't one of the most requested updates for WOTC on steam... Xcom's complete lack of ambush mechanics beyond 'overwatch' [which we all known lowers accuracy making it an inherently ineffective ambush when you can just blow up their cover and hit them while exposed] has been one of 'my' biggest complaints since release. you get all these useful abilities, especially with some mods, and yet you can't use them except when they're least effective [when the enemy has already fled for cover]... Xcom is supposed to be an experienced and cohesive military force, not an untrained rabble that can't even synchronize timed ambush fire...

WOTFC! Please..... I used to love this mod.

makes it impossible with spider suit to select different elevations e.g. top of low building or top of high building

WOTFC!
pretty
please :)

my favourite mod for xcom2 :D
Hope there will be a WOTC patch :)
Keep up the good work!

Where is this in your queue of mods to update for WOTC? Can I bribe you?

I can confirm that it does not work with WotC. Looks like we will have to wait for a patch.

anybody tested this with WotC?

does this work with WOTC?

One of my favorite mods. Will we see WOTC version?

From the Description:
Contains a compatibility fix for LWPP.

30 AI is conflicted by Long War Perks

Hey Guys, I encountered a problem with True Ambush when I added the new Field Medic Class, every thing was great immediately after I added it, but then FM mod wasn't found, not on the mod list at all. So I did the work around with that, haven't determined if that is fixed yet, but TA stopped working again, but I got it back up. I made the 1 LW, 2 TA, and 3 FM. So try playing around with it some more, flipping "Base game Hud" on and off, loading saves and exiting menu and desktop, and general reloads. I used two seperate save files for a control. took me ~30-min to an hour. Good luck, guys.

2nd'ed for LW2 compatibility. Makes the game so much better.

Would the 1.3 update or the highlander mod make this work any easier??

any timeframe or known workaround for the lw2 compatibility? this mod just improves the game so much that it would be great if we could get it working again for lw2!

No, I do not use 30 ability icon but additional icon.
They are diffierent function. 30 ability icon is for your display and
additional icon is for both side of stats revealing.

Well, I am steping back and waiting for LW2 version.
That would be perfect for XCOM 2 ambush element.

Is it just me having problems with my ton of mods, but are you guys getting the 30 ability icons??? I've tried literally everything and I'm only getting 15, with no option even when disabling this mod to have teh little arrow you used to get to see the second half of the ability bar

Flesh seeker I tried doing what you said, and the 30 ability icons came up (Although i used to have a problem where the ability bar became too high covering teh red aliens heads, then the damage when aiming), but I didn't have any joy with the button.. And then when I reloaded the ability bar was back to normal! :(

Robo do you have a donation box btw???

Ok, thanks. Just i love this mod so much, shame. eh-well ill definitly use it again

Sorry, I'm sure my posts are getting annoying at this point. But I'll just try one more time with my mod list and hopefully someone knows how to help. My issue is part way through my initial play through true ambush just ceased to work as the ambush toggle dissapeared. I removed a bunch of mods and started a new play through (yes I turned use base-game ability hud on), but the toggle is still absent. All the other issues I had earlier (flashing neon colours and hang ups on loading screens) are gone now, but the missing toggle is still present unfortunately. Here is my load order. If anyone sees the issue I'd appreciate some guidance. This mod is too awesome to not play with.

Okay...1 more bug I'm really hoping someone can help me out with. I just started a mission with nothing but rookies (was hoping to get off a sweet ambush and lvl them all in 1 swoop). The ambusg toggle isn't there, and yes I have concealed start and true ambush activated. If anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmmm. Well, it's only started happening since I had this downloaded. Maybe it's just a matter of having too many mods then.

I'm getting the same crash internet, although I don't have this activated as I was waiting for a more compatible lw2 version if they managed a workaround.. Are you sure it's this mod?

Honestly. I love this mod so much I can't play without it. I get randomly hit with a game breaking bug at the end of missions. I don't get to the victory music walk out area when u can promote ur soldiers, between the plane scene I get stuck in this weird avenger interior glitch room and I'm forced to abandon save. For a few missions I could just load the last auto save to play the last move; not working now :(

@Scryehard - thank you very much, finally got this working.

Internet Supervillain, when you start a new save, and go under "options" there will be sections specific to LW2 that don't appear in the main menu. Under "Abilities", turn on the Base-Game HUD, save, and reload the save.

What do you mean by this? "LW2 compatibility:

Turn on "Use Base-Game Ability HUD", save the game and reload that save. It should work then"

Thank you for your work Robojumper

Yeah I'm getting CTD as well with LW2 enabled. +1 for a more compatible version ;)

I think I finally nailed it down.

Move the LW2 and TA folders from the workshop folders to the mods folder (XComGame\mods) and call them 1 and 2 respectively. If you copy them instead of moving them, the icon won't do anything. You must also unsubscribe from both mods to prevent Steam from auto-downloading them

Then go into a save, open options, activate Base Game HUD under Abilities, save, reload the save file. Now the icon should be there and work. But then guess what? Once you go back to Avenger, the game crashes! The only way to fix it (because unchecking the TrueAmbush mod when launching the game doesn't make a difference), is to subscribe to both mods again so that they appear twice in the mod list while launching the game (but do not turn on the workshop versions, just make sure they appear on the list itself). But Scrye I hear you say didn't you say earlier that this made the icon not do anything? Yep, and it did! But for some reason or another now it no longer does that

After copy them to mod folder, yes, TA works!, but now TA block additional icon mod to works...well, that's "not work" for me again.

I guess AI mod was confused by 2 LW2 mod out there /or no LW2 in the workshop folder
and didnt know which data should put in to the HUD.
So it turn up to force me to choose TA or AI.

So far i confirm that TA target LW2 in mod folder to read,
and AI need LW2 in workshop folder to read.
Now they are just perfectly killing each other if I am going to use them both.

I will wait untill something that just simplified to sub-and-work then come back.
It is kinda strange to see people jumping around like this.....
It is a great mod, but way too much to use.

Now my game crashes when it gets to the Avenger. =/

It doesn't crash if I don't have True Ambush enabled.

Shrug. Use what works, I guess. None of these load order shenanigans seem to make much sense.
