PermanentEvasion

This mod is based on Morphyum's PermanentEvasion (PE). Orginal mod can be find here: https://github.com/Morphyum/PermanentEvasion

I liked the idea of donZappo's Semi-PermanentEvasion (SPE) regarding the limitation on permanent evasion pip so I added it to Morphyum's mod. You can find donZappo's mod here: https://github.com/donZappo/Semi_Permanent_Evasion

The mod is compatible with BT 1.9.

Requirements

Features and settings

All options are in settings.json. Here the things that changed compared to PE:

  • When a Mech is hit it will loose a pip. I modified the message to display HIT: -1 EVASION instead of the usual -1 EVASION. Can be deactivated, change AllowHitStrip to false. Default:

"AllowHitStrip": true

  • Like in SPE, you can set how many permanent pips each weight category can have. By default they are as follow:

"LightKeepPipsCount" : 5

"MediumKeepPipsCount" : 4

"HeavyKeepPipsCount" : 3

"AssaultKeepPipsCount" : 2

  • You can configure the chance (in percent) of a permanent pip to not be strip on a miss. Ace pilot can give a bonus. It will display -1 EVASION when that happen like in the non modded game. Default value are:

"PercentageToKeepPips" : 50

"AcePilotBonusPercentage" : 20

  • AcePilot can also give a bonus permanent pip. Default value is:

"AcePilotBonusPips" : 1

  • If you don't like the flat percentage for the chance of loosing a permanent pip I made a different version based on Piloting skill. The formula is the following 10 + "Pilot skill" x "PerSkillPointToKeepPips" or 10 + "Pilot skill" x "AcePilotPointToKeepPips" if the pilot has AcePilot. Default value are:

"PerSkillPointToKeepPips" : 7

"AcePilotPointToKeepPips" : 8

  • To use that feature just put "PilotSkillToKeepPips" : false, to true.

  • You can set the max chance to keep your permanent evasion pip so there is always a chance to loose your permanent pip. Default value is:

"MaxTotalChanceTokeepPips" : 90

  • If you succeed to keep to your permanent pip you will see "EVASION KEPT"

  • You can set a minimum amout of damage received for stripping a pip after getting hit. That should mitigate the missile volley effect:

"MinDamageForEvasionStrip": 25

  • Added back donZappo Semi-Permanent Evasion pips retain system based on Mech speed. To enable it put "UseMovement" to true. The default settings are the following:

Move 210 - 5 Permanent Evasion

Move 190 - 4 Permanent Evasion

Move 165 - 4 Permanent Evasion

Move 140 - 4 Permanent Evasion

Move 120 - 3 Permanent Evasion

Move 95 - 2 Permanent Evasion

  • You can now give a bonus permanent pip for jumping, can optionnaly be linked to AcePilot. Default value is: "JumpBonusPip": 1

"LinkedToAcePilot": true
