The version on Nexus is more recent at the moment (3rd August 2025: v 6.11).

Yep. And it ignores Rato's Stance mechanic, basically granting free Shooting Stance (not to mention the fact that it makes Omryn's skill endlessly reusable)

It seems the mod changes it so that overwatch still has one shot even if the merc has 0 AP left at the end of the turn. Can this be changed?

Mod author is very reactive on nexusmods. If you notice bugs please consider reporting them on the nexus so we can all contribute to improve this wonderful mod :)

I downgraded the mod to the previous version (4.4)

I went to nexxus and donwloaded the previous version from April 2025, unsubcribed the workshop one and manuaky instaled the one that I've got from nexxus and everything is back to normal.

Not using ratos nor tac AI and still was having hung ups as soon as a third party ally set an overwatch.

It didn't work. A mod option is just an option. You cannot count too much on it.

However, I DID manage to rescue my saved game by reloading the legacy RATO's GBO-patching version of Smart Overwatch. Everything back to normal.

Yeah, I believe the latest version of SO is conflicting with TACTICAL AI PROJECT. The save-corrupting issue generally came up when a third-party friendly unit (not player's mercs) set up an overwatch that happened to cover the step position of my merc. I will try to remove the latest option and see if it can temporarily bypass the issue.

@Malaktica: you were using TACTICAL AI PROJECT also? or even without it, your game gets hung up?

Disabling Smart Overwatch fixes this issue for me. Sad, because its such an important mod. Please fix!
