Equiping war or exo suit will cause you to lose the suit. atleast it does for me.

Can't fire my gun because of insufficient ammo.

I'm also having this issue. Can't overwatch or fire pistol. Officers can't do anything right now. Too bad cause I wanna use the officer mod but this and the Idle animation are kind of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with me on this.

Lost my wraith suit, and a few utility items, this way. I was also using it with the "All Armor Options" mod, and whenever I put new armor on my officer, they turned into a floating torso, and when I tried to customize them, their loadout would delete.

I have this problem as well. I believe it is caused by the lack of a primary weapon.

EDIT:

Yup, confirmed. Gave them the ability to use a rifle as a primary weapon, and I was able to choose the extra customization options for them. No loadouts disappearing or anything out of the ordinary.

Perhaps the modder could link it with one of the primary weapon pistols available in the workshop? I personally like the Skoll Sweeper.

So in other words this is a compatibility issue with the "All armor options" mod or the fact that there is no Primary weapon?

(Technically speaking the Officer does have a Primary Weapon, his fists. Just not ones which are used by XCom forces standard :P)

I will look into this. No doubt if the issue persists I will make Primary Weapons, a copy of the secondary ones probably.

cant fire gun for insufficient ammo

It's a cool idea, I really wanted to use this class too. But your workaround of just eliminating the primary causes too many bugs. I'd highly reccomend creating a primary pistol weapon, unfortunatly it seems like there isn't a way to bind custom weapons to a custom class, for now.

Not sure how many people have seen this, it's a basic example for adding a new weapon, was very helpful for me:

I plan to follow this mod and see what cool stuff you come up with.

I will address many of the issues raised this weekend when I have time. My primary weapons are already set to go in practice. I just need to lock them down to the research now.

What my recommendation is: try to make a dummy primary weapon. Something that grants some ability (mark target, perhaps?), but does nothing else. Maybe make it a datapad or something. Then just keep the pistol as the secondary. That should solve the problems as well as add a nice bit of flavor to the class.

Something i just noticed while playing is that the officer can get Rapid Fire from the AWC as ability but is unable to use it because of insufficient ammo.
I guess thats the biggest problem with officer, great mod so far though im loving it :)

Thank you for that report. That is probably because the skill is linked to the Primary Weapon as opposed to his Secondary. I will investigate it :)

If there's a way to program the dummy primary to automatically apply talents and stuff to the secondary, that would fix the issue. As to whether or not that is possible, I have no idea :v

i can not place the handgun in item slot for my officer or any other weapon for that fact. So my officer is with out his main weapon in the field . Need help im not a modder but love the game.
