Faster Missions

A way to greatly reduce the time needed to progress and complete any single playthrough.

• Mobility
  
• Perfect-ish aim when flanking

Flanking and cover destruction before attacking is now much more rewarding. Increased mobility helps with faster mission completion as an alternative to increased turn timers.

Specific stat numbers can be modified in the config file.

• Unique item, cannot be researched or built
  
• Increases multiple stats including HP regeneration, critical-hit chance, and hacking skill

This item reduces/removes early-to-late game grinding. Also adds much more resilience to soldier injuries and squad wipes (by making rookies and B-teams/soldiers far more effective).

Specific stat numbers can be modified in the config file.

• Produces unique utility item
  
• Greatly increases aim stat

This item replaces some chance with strategy during missions by giving players a much more reliable tool for consistently hitting and defeating enemy troops. Also saves time and can reduce/remove the need for save scumming.

Specific stat numbers can be modified in the config file.

• -1 day region contacting and radio relay construction
  
• +1 starting scientist
  
• Removed invisible aim assists on lower difficulties
  
• Instant shadow chamber construction

No mod conflicts.

The bonus soldier stats and utility items are added to the game and don't modify anything. The bonus soldier stats also require at least one mission to be played before working when applying this mod to a saved game.

Most of everything else modified the config files from the default game so there will only be conflicts if other mods change the same variables in the same config files. It should be a very low chance though.

The bonus default stats for soldiers do not show outside of tactical missions (eg Armory). I can confirm that they work during tactical missions as intended.

I can confirm it's possible to reach the second last story mission on veteran ironman with a specific playstyle in roughly 5 hours.

During that playthrough there was never a dull moment and I was having fun while meeting a reasonable amount of challenges and soldier injuries.

I was able to play with just my one A-team, no squad size upgrades, and only 2 other soldiers as back up when A-team members were injured. It may be possible to complete an ironman playthrough with just investing time and resources into the A-team only (thanks to this mod).
