Description
ALL CREDITS FOR THIS MOD GO TO -bg-. I HAVE MERELY COMPILED AND FIXED THE MOD FOR WOTC. YOU CAN FIND THE ORIGINAL MOD HERE.

DESCRIPTION

This mod tops ever vigilant from getting blocked by neutral free actions such as opening doors and grabbing loot or hack bonuses from another soldier.

It also allows you to customize what allows Ever Vigilant and what movement ability blocks them; you may also customize the list of overwatch abilities to choose from (this mod also puts standard overwatch on higher priority than pistol overwatch, fixing classes that uses pistols but do not need 2 actions to activate overwatch).


COMPATIBILITIES AND ISSUES

  • For LWOTC users: add "SnapShotOverwatch" below "Overwatch" and above "PistolOverwatch" to make it work with Ever Vigilant.
  • Removes EverVigilantTrigger ability (which is a bonus ability granted by the actual 'EverVigilant' ability) and replaces with -bg.'s solution. Mods that modify properties of said ability will no longer have an effect.
  • Activating on a tactical save will not have an effect until the next time you start a new mission.


SPECIAL THANKS

  • -bg-, for creating the original mod.
  • Iridar, for helping me fix my dumbest mistakes.

Is there a list anywhere of things that can be included? For example, if I want to add Scanning Protocol, how would I include that?

Do what you want rather than expecting someone else to

@Dragon32 I don't understand. What do you want me to do?

I'm guessing everyone subscribing to this mod will have a similar list of abilities to add. Surely there's a simple example of everything most people will want to add so that we can simply copy and paste that and then tweak as necessary; rather than go through 60+ comments looking for things to add? Better yet, a mod config menu in-game would be best, but I have no idea how much work that would involve. I'm grateful for the mod and don't want to be making demands or anything.

@e☆zy t@rget Thanks man.

I guess it should look as followed, but I was not able to test it yet:

+OverwatchAbilities=Overwatch
+OverwatchAbilities=SnapShotOverwatch
+OverwatchAbilities=PistolOverwatch

Thanks for the mod! Please explain it to a newb what should I change in .ini to make it work in LWotC?
I change it like this according to the description:
....
+OverwatchAbilities=Overwatch ; .....
+SnapShotOverwatch
+OverwatchAbilities=PistolOverwatch
....
I suspect I did something wrong. Please explain.

could you make a version where Ever Vigilant activates like Deep Cover does (no attacks made during the turn)
