@PatientLandBeaver Thanks for using the mod. I am glad its been fun to use.

And thanks for the mod!

I like prefer this method to level up soldiers on CI covert missions as opposed to ranking them up in the GTS. Just seems more realistic from a game lore stand point.

@huntersorce20 yes, that is how it roughly goes.

so, for example, if i set the covert action kills to 3, and the FL is 5, then for a covert action the game will select between 3-8 xp randomly to award, am i understanding right?

@huntersorce20 the formula cannot be changed in configs. Its a 1 to max FL bonus to EXP (picks randomly) gained from covert actions. So Covert action gives 1 EXP and then the bonus is added. the min/maxcovertactionkills is the default amount (normally 1, but I made it three) you can modify that but the bonus cannot be changed.

ok, i didn't see anything related to force level in the configs, so i got confused. so if i were to set the covert action kills to 3, like this,
+MinCovertActionKills=3
+MaxCovertActionKills=3
then how does that translate to xp based on fl? is it xp per kill=fl or something like that? i'm just a bit confused on how to balance the configs since idk how force level exactly relates to xp based on kills on covert actions since i can't see that formula in the config.

so normally covert actions provide 1 exp per completed covert action. This mod makes it give 1 to max FL of exp per covert action.

@huntersorce20 by editing the code of covert action EXP itself, you cannot edit said data in configs.

how does force level relate to xp at all? the configs don't show anything related to force level, and the base soldier kill/xp formula is unaffected by force level. see here for details: https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/eutkny/xcom2_detailed_soldier_xp_and_leveling_post/
anyway, what did you change that makes force level a component of how much xp a soldier gains on a covert op?

@stout_drawl4 yes in the sense it will not affect it. Covert actions will still only give exp to the soldiers who go on it. All soldiers gain XP will only give XP to everyone based on kills.

Is this compatible with All Soldiers Gain XP?

@Zin Yes.

Does changing the covert kills options in the XComGameBoard.ini of this mod give you more XP?

A LWotC version would be sick if anyone could make that!

@Lux Manifestus it will probably work on them once they are promoted.

Does it work on those Project EXVENT troopers?

Okay, thank you :)

@zin not 100% sure. It should be safe to add but most likely wont take affect on in progress Covert actions.

Sweet mod! Is it safe to add mid-campaign (and does it still work if you do)? :)

If someone wants to make a LWOTC version of this mod they can go ahead and do so. I do not make LWOTC mods.

Thank you very much for your work, it would be better if there is a version for LWOTC. Brutal campaigns need this mod

I checked it on LWOTC, it doesn't seem to work, since I sent the same recruits to secret operations 3 times, we didn't get any experience at all

@The13Inquisitor not sure, I do not use it. I had a few buddies test it for CI, but had no one test it for LWOTC. If you decide to try it and it works let me know.

@Vyodjsaem Yes.

Does this work with Covert Infiltration?

great idea, covert ops was kinda weak, you should get covert op level up skills

Love to see stuff like this. Is it LWotC compatible?

I think from a logic stand point, this makes sense. Subscribed, will report issues/bugs as I go
