Start by specifying an ability that you want to edit.

+Abilities = (AbilityName=CombatProtocol,

the text after AbilityName= is the backend name for the skill, to find these you can look in the localisation ini files.

From there you can edit AP cost, cooldown, charges, ammo cost, keep charges on miss, whether the skill ends the turn or is free, add a joint skill that can stop this skill from ending the turn or adds additional charges to this skill. You can add these in by placing a , after each.

--- Example 1; Original, Combat Protocol has a cooldown of 3 turns and ends the soldier's turn

+Abilities = (AbilityName=CombatProtocol, Cooldown=3, EndsTurn=true)


--- Example 2; Combat Protocol is now charge based and has 4 charges with a cooldown of 3 turns and ends the soldier's turn

+Abilities = (AbilityName=CombatProtocol, Cooldown=3, Charges=4, EndsTurn=true)


--- Example 3; Combat Protocol is the same as before but now having the Threat Assessment skill adds 3 additional charges

+Abilities = (AbilityName=CombatProtocol, Cooldown=3, Charges=4, EndsTurn=true, BonusChargeWith[0]=(BonusAbilityName=ThreatAssessment, NumBonusCharges=3) )


--- Example 4; Combat Protocol is the same as before but now having the capacitor discharge skill stops it from ending the soldier's turn.

+Abilities = (AbilityName=CombatProtocol, Cooldown=3, Charges=4, EndsTurn=true, DoNotConsumeAllActionsWith[0]=CapacitorDischarge, BonusChargeWith[0]=(BonusAbilityName=ThreatAssessment, NumBonusCharges=3) )
