Vanilla psycasts expanded - Archocaster

Unofficial Vanilla psycasts expanded addon
Now 1.5 Compatible!!!


The mod I initially made for myself because I couldn't find mods with some features I really wanted in the game. I figured somebody else might need this as well, so here you go. Some abilities are probably a tad unbalanced, but I didn't find a way to rectify it.
Also, this is my first mod, and I have no idea how to code, so be aware. It worked fine for me so far.


This mod adds a new psycaster path that allows your pawns to manipulate others' psycasting abilities. This is kind of what I expected the Archon path to be.





New Psy Path: Archocaster


Can only be unlocked with psy trainers.





New Abilities:


Solidify Psyfocus: Create solid psyfocus (item). Amount scales with psychic sensitivity and psyfocus cost

Psy-block: Block target's psychic sensitivity. Use again to undo.

Unlock Archocaster Path: (Do I have to explain?) If you don't want to wait for more psy trainers.

Give Level To: Transfer enough experience to give the target the next level. Will work only if the caster has enough XP and points.

Give Level From: Transfer the current level to the target. Caster must have at least one point.

Transfer Psycasts: Swap psycasts with target (includes opened paths, points, abilities, and level, but not meditation focus).

Reset Psycasts: Reset psycasts (remove all paths and abilities. Points are restored).





New Items:


Solid Psyfocus: Crafting ingredient. Used to create Permit Reset Lance

Permit Lance: Reusable (has cooldown) lance. Can reset pawns' permits (with no honor cost). However, resetting permits on cooldown will damage the relationship with the Empire.
yeah, im way to greedy to pay those 8 honor





Bonus Feature:


Thralls now have configurable learning multiplier (in case you didnt know, in original VPE thralls dont learn, even though it is not explained anywhere). 0 by default, can be adjusted in the settings.
