LWOTC 1.0 is out and the PSI classes are still in vanilla state where you get them when the game is basically over. Thanks to the predecessor and this mod the PSI class becomes relevant again!

I edited the skilltree to my liking and with LWOTC restrictions in mind.

---------------------------------------------

#1 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="MindMerge", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Soulfire", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Insanity", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#2 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="LW_NullWard", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="SoulSteal", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Solace_LW", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#3 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="LW_SoulStorm", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="VoidRift", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="NullLance", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#4 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="LightningReflexes_LW", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_Unknown)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Fuse", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="LW_PhaseWalk", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#5 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Fortress", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="IRI_PsiReanimation", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Inspire", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#6 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Bastion", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Stasis", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="RustyPsiHeal", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\

#7 Rank
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="CombatFitness", )), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Domination", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_SecondaryWeapon)), \\
(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Sustain", )), \\

Edit, if you play this with WOTC, i also recommend editing the PSI weapon cost,.
They cost corpses to manufacture, which can be very very scarce, and therefore i balanced the psi weapons around the normal weapon costs and made them alittle more costy. (XComLW_Overhaul file)

-------------------------------

+ItemTable=(ItemTemplateName="PsiAmp_MG", Slots=0, Starting=false, Infinite=false, Buildable=true, RequiredTech1="Psionics", RequiredTech2="Tech_Elerium", SupplyCost=40, AlloyCost=5, CrystalCost=5, CoreCost=0, SpecialItemTemplateName="", SpecialItemCost=1, TradingPostValue=5, RequiredEngineeringScore=25, Tier = 102, PointsToComplete=200)

+ItemTable=(ItemTemplateName="PsiAmp_BM", Slots=0, Starting=false, Infinite=false, Buildable=true, RequiredTech1="Psionics", RequiredTech2="AutopsyGatekeeper", SupplyCost=100, AlloyCost=10, CrystalCost=10, CoreCost=2, SpecialItemTemplateName="", SpecialItemCost=1, TradingPostValue=10, RequiredEngineeringScore=40, Tier = 104, PointsToComplete=200)

Very usufeul, TY!

Any thoughts on adding Rank #8 to match the rest of the LWotC classes? I see there's a blank template in the ini but I have no idea what to put in it. I really like the idea of a separate Psi class and would like to use this with LWotC and have the class be a similar power curve to the others.

I don't play LWotC so I have no idea what to put in there either!
I left the template to make it easier for people that do play LWotC to use/setup.

Hello all! I've tried adding the 8th rank myself but I have the same issue. I've modified the class skill tree file, I've also added another line for an icon to show with the rank, but I can't get the 8th rank to show in the skill tree in-game. It only shows up to Magus. Is there anything else (file/line/command, etc) that needs modification to be able to see/use the 8th rank? Thanks!

If you had the unit already, and modified the tree afterwards you will need to RebuildTheSelectedSoldier to force the tree to update.

Right! Is there a console command for that? Because I tried training a new Psionic from scratch in the Guerilla Centre and it still doesn't show up. And if I change the class of another soldier to RustyPsionic, it still doesn't show up. Not sure what to do here. In the comments, there was another person who said they managed to get it working. Any idea how?

You mentioned this to them:
@Yeah, near the bottom of the XComGame.int you should find the commented out rank names and icon

;RankNames[8]="Void"
;ShortNames[8]="Vd."
;RankIcons[8]= "UILibrary_LW_PerkPack.psirank_Master"

Just remove the ; and that should be good@

I don't see those lines in the XComGame.ini of your mod. Is it somewhere else? In the main game maybe?

Those lines are needed and are not in the XComGame.ini

They are found in the Localisation\ XComGame.int

changing those and rebuilding the unit should get you what you desire :)

Yes! Modified the lines in Localisation, along with changing the abilities from the 8th rank to be distinct from anything else in the tree (I think that was causing issues as well), and now I can see the 8th rank in the skill tree. Thanks very much for the help @Rusty! Great work with the mod!

If anyone has any problems with nulllance's prerequisites (or any other ability really) I recommend downloading the mod Ability Prerequisite Get-Arounder and folloow the instructions in the ini file.

I'm a newb. Can anyone give a concise and clear guide how to make this class fully playable (as it was intended) in LWOTC. Thanks!
