Scouting Protocol (Legacy)

Beskrivning
FOR WOTC VERSION OF THE MOD GO HERE:
http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1254143639

This mod gives any GREMLIN user the Scouting Protocol ability. It will send the GREMLIN to a specific area and then backwards. This will clear fog of war until the end of turn, and you will see if there are enemies in the area, but they will not be persistently revealed.

# TACTICAL INFORMATION

- Scouting Protocol is simply an additional ability, given to any soldier with a GREMLIN equipped.
- Scouting Protocol does not break concealment or alert enemies in any other way.
- Unlike Scanning Protocol, Scouting Protocol does not reveal hidden Faceless or burrowed Chryssalids.
- The purpose of Scouting Protocol is to provide safe scouting during the early game, without having to rely on Concealment.
- Similar to XCOM operatives, GREMLIN's vision will not go through hard cover.
- Normally, Scouting Protocol locks your camera to the GREMLIN, but if there other XCOM operatives with any actions left, you can break the camera free by pressing TAB right after activating Scouting Protocol. This should make it a bit more convenient.

# CONFIGURATION

By default, Scouting Protocol:
- Costs one action.
- Has no cooldown.
- Has infinite charges.
- Does not end turn.

All of this, as well as ability range and radius can be configured in "Config\XComScoutingProtocol.ini".

For example, you can make Scouting Protocol a free action, but give it a 1-2 turn cooldown. Or give yourself only a couple of charges per mission.
Giving Scouting Protocol a huge reveal radius does not really work, due to cover blocking vision.

# COMPATIBILITY

Compatible with Long War 2. Because Scouting Protocol is simply an ability attached to GREMLINs,
it should be compatible with anything that does not replace default GREMLIN names.

The description says it doesn't alert enemies in any way... I just used scouting protocol during a retaliation mission to find a small group, and the enemies instantly saw the gremlin and came toward my squad!

Oops, just saw that cooldown, etc. could be configured. Awesome ;)

Very cool ability but most certainly OP, IMO. It would be a huge advantage even if you could use it 1-2 times a mission, let alone every turn. Even twice a turn..!

@Memrek I'll try updating it if Long War for WotC comes. It doesn't seem necessary without Long War, vanilla is trivial.

@Iridar - Thanks for udating the description. Any plans to update for WotC?
Memrek 3 sep, 2017 @ 10:41 
Has this been updated for WotC? If so, could you please add that to the description. And if not, could you please update it. I'm sure I'm not alone in the appreciation of this mod. Thanks

Not really. This is intended to a visual inspection only. If it had scanning effects, you could assume that it detects burrowed or disguised aliens, which it doesn't.
José 23 aug, 2017 @ 18:42 
Any way that you could update this to have the scanning protocol visual?

@Dragon32:
Oh, that's awesome. Assuming this mod works with 1.5 when it goes live, I'll definitely be picking it up again. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh, more:
At any rate, will be fixed in [Long War 2] 1.5. Fun fact: it was a vanilla bug fixed in the patch that came with the Alien Hunters DLC. The code we had for pistols copied the bug, and the copy didn't get fixed in the patch, which is why it applies only to pistols.
