[WOTC] Bstar's Perk Pack

Description
This is a small collection of 18 custom abilities that will be expanded in the future. Since these abilities are all related to specific weapons or types of abilities (e.g. Psionics), they will not appear as GTS perks - otherwise you'd get useless perks on certain classes. So on its own, this mod does nothing (for now).

However, you can add them to any class of your choice in XComClassData.ini or - with a little more effort - to weapons and armor using mods such as Iridar's Weapon Skin replacer.

A list of included abilities can be found here[docs.google.com].

Been a while since I played (or modded) XCOM 2, but if I'm not mistaken, Overwatch works the same way in the base game. So while it's not exactly "intended", it's consistent with base game behaviour of reaction abilities vs. MC'ed units. I realize this might lead to some frustrating situations, but I guess... that's XCOM?

I'm not sure if it's bugged or intended but Arc Thrower and Sawed-off's Overwatch trigger on allied mind-controlled (e.g. Dominated) units

This mod only contains the abilities. Anyone is free to make other mods that use them in any way they want.

How about make which new psionics have a small chance to get this ability as negative trait after psi-trainig(or if play with Kyuubicle's Psionic Overhaul mod after psionic testing)?

What do you mean by that?

@bstar Unstable perk looks like a negative trait.

Would there be any issues with setting Sawed-Off Reload to have -1 charges (i.e., unlimited)? I'm only prompted to ask because of the Deep Pockets ability.

Thank you @bstar. Appreciate the response.

That sounds highly unlikely. This mod shouldn't affect promotions in any way.
