Echoing Nel Sids statement (25 Feb), borked and incompatible with controller aiming.

You probably don't need this mod if you use Community Highlander 1.29+

It can cause some instability.

@CozMedic

Can confirm, glad to finally complete the tutorial after temporarily disabling this mod.

Will this have any issues with Show More Buff Details ?? It has the same class overrides as extended informations but I saw no mention in the comments, descriptioni, or discussions.. so I want to verify.

@Povuh Thanks for the information.

25.02 do not install on steam deck it completely breaks the aiming system, possibly not only on Steam deck but also on all controllers the problem is that you aim at one and attack the other be careful we are waiting for a fix

It's been said before, but I can also confirm this mod has issues with controllers. When you're switching between multiple targets to shoot and then confirm the shot, it will often shoot a different target than the one you had selected.

Does anyone know something about the movement outline of soldiers flickering ah when you are panning around with (wasd)? with the mouse panning on the edge it doesn't happen...

is this use for lwotc?

Upgrade EU Aim Rolls to the 'newer' LW Aim Rolls .. and you should be good

@RustyDios ye I might have gotten ahead of myself as the game actually lags and bugs out with the conflict, and EI crashes if I comment out the line.

I COULD use the older EI........ but I really don't want to let go of EU aim rolls. Modding dilemma of wanting them all.

If you find the link you save the day once again

The issue there is using the 'newest' discord version of Extended Information.. this mod was not made to be usable with it :(

.... iirc there was a github version of this that was made to be used with the discord version of EI, but I can't find the link to it

I have a question:

Commenting out the instructed line on Extended Information causes a to crash when revealing a pod (Gatecrasher, new campaign), according to the log Extended info just goes haywire.

Game runs fine however, if I don't comment the line out.
Can I just leave it on? I've no idea what is happening in the background with that line enabled hence the question. I am using the "newest" xcom modding discord version of Extended info

How do i get this to display more than 30 abilities with LWOTC installed? Thanks for making this mod!

Yes.

Does this work with long War of the Chosen?

I can confirm the issue with controllers. You select one objective but the soldier shoots to another one. It happens even following the advice of commenting the line.

After many, many hours of disabling and enabling mods, unfortunately I found this one to be the cause of my issue where the tutorial mission soft-locks as the "Call Evac" button never appears (nor does the hotkey work) so I can't progress with the game. Given the other comments, I would guess this is just a conflict that I was unable to identify.

As the author of fix controller grappling, I can happily report its no longer needed iwth the latest version of the highlander. You do want to add a few extra pathing types, but the main ones are already in the highlander.

If this gets updated to work with controllers, is there any way to make it compatible with "Fix Controller Grappling" as well?

I performed your recommend edit and and unsubscribed from "Unlimited Ability Icons". I am in the grounded Defend the Avenger mission. The problem is that my soldiers will not fire at my selected targets. On the battlefield I switch to my Windows game pad. On the Avenger I use the mouse to navigate. Thanks

Excuse me, ExitSign

Would this mod affect SaintKnave's Recruits Conserve Character Pool (https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1131878283) in any way?

Thank you very much for your help.

Tried mid-campaign with the fixes you listed in the info as I use both Extended Information and Unlimited Ability Icons, game crashed consistently whenever I revealed a pod. Not a big deal right now, I'll try using this again in a fresh new campaign when I'm done with my current stream run.

controller issues here as well

I saw someone mention the issues they have with the controller. Where u shoot the first target in the list. I be having the same issues. Was wondering if there's any fix on the way? This mod completely fixed my lag so it'd be nice if it worked on controller.

@Dragon32 You were damm right, thank you.

@Ramonxu
It needs the Highlander

I'm unable to make this work. Everytime i start a mision, the game crashes. I tested it with a new game and old game, with only this mod activated. Any ideas?

@xiaotang
Yes. That should happen automatically.

thanks.but i mean i want to get over 30 ability icons

@xiaotang
IIRC more rows are automatically added if needed. If that's not happening you could have a conflict (it's one of the few AML can identify) or some other problem.

how to get more Ability Icons

ahhh yes it would seem so.

@Yikes
Re-read the Description. As, of course, you've already done that.

what do i do about it? just leave it or is there a solution

alternative mod launcher is saying there is a override conflict with extended information mod and unlimited ability icons mod?

This is literally my favorite mod in the workshop for xcom 2, if you ever get more good ideas for lag fixes you would do the community a huge service

@Talon FPS tanking to like 5 fps is usually an indicator of a mod conflict. Check the description in this mod if you need additional steps in your case (e.g. disable unlimited ability icons mod)

As an added detail to my comment below, I can say that I have installed this mod on both my PC at home and on my laptop. Game runs smooth like butter now, zero issues for me.

Since installing this mod, my lag has slowed down to a crawl. There is no stuttering, but everything takes several seconds to actually go off once I've given a command, and my FPS has tanked.

In the 800 hours I have spent on this game, I have never before felt the need to write a comment for any mod. This one is different.
This mod was such a game changer for me that I can scarcely believe it. The difference in lag before and after is like night and day.
If you, dear reader, are the least bit annoyed by ingame stuttering, download this mod (remember to read the section regarding conflict with the "Extended Information" mod, the fix is described in detail and easy to do).

ExitSign, thank you so much for this mod. This game is one of my favourites, but the stuttering was beginning to ruin my experience. Your mod changed all that. Thank you, thank you!

Thank you for the quick feedback, for now I disabled the mod. Make sure that you use a software like DS4Windows to emulate Xinput, as xcom2 has Steam Input integration which is different (and imo worse) than it's xinput behavior.

@WelfareRecipient I did not test with a controller. I do have a (ps4/5) controller, but never connected/tested it on a PC and X-Com. I will try to make this controller compatible but will take some time for me to set it up properly. Thanks for the feedback, it's good to know!

Did you test with a controller?
I can see performance is much improved, but for whatever reason now when I select an enemy to fire at, it always selects the first enemy in the list not the one I chose.

This mod is 100% a necessity for anyone who runs a highly modded XCOM like myself. It honestly feels like black magic seeing the difference, even on the notoriously difficult to run Abandoned City map, I managed to run modded lost, raider factions, custom clothing and abilities, everything, without any frame drops or stuttering at a good frame rate. Whatever you did, it's amazing, and it's a must have for anyone. This feels like it should just be part of XCOM, it's that good.

Great to hear all the positive feedback! @diringed this mod indeed does nothing on the strategy/geoscape layer, so that might have been a placebo effect :)

This mod definitely helps with performance related issues during missions. Late game XCOM was pretty much a slide show at times, so a huge thank you!
However, somebody else down in the comments said it also improves the performance in the geo scape. This I can't confirm.

The conflict should solve itself in-game (AML doesn't know that). But just in case, instructions are also in the description and under Discussions tab.

Nvm. When you the config edit, the conflict goes away.

This shows a conflict with WOTC - Extended Information! - is that OK?
