[WotC] Agile Strength Fix

Agile is a cut Chosen strength that allows the Chosen to take a free move when targeted by an attack. If you enable it in the .ini files it works, but there's a catch.

The vanilla Agile perk forces the Chosen to move, regardless of if it's a good idea or not. Any Chosen that rolled Agile was doomed to meet their end at the hands of a five soldier Overwatch trap they were forced to blunder into. They also moved at random, meaning they'd often move to a worse position. All in all, it was less of a Chosen strength and more of a Chosen weakness.

Not any more.


This mod reenables the Agile strength, and rewrites its AI to make the Chosen use their free move intelligently.

• Firstly, the Chosen will now stop to consider if moving's a good idea: if they aren't flanked and there are overwatchers lying in wait, they'll stay put.
  
• Secondly, the Chosen now think about where they're moving to. They'll try to move to better cover and put some distance between themselves and your squad, making it harder to pull off multiple flanks against them.

It's a pretty fun perk to play against now. Chosen with Agile are much harder to focus down, and you can't just destroy their cover and hit them with a full squad.

I've also included an optional ini toggle in case you want to add Agile to all the Chosen.
