# CONFIGURATION
By default, Scouting Protocol:
All of this, as well as ability cast range and reveal radius can be configured in "Config\XComScoutingProtocolWOTC.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
This is a WOTC version. For vanilla version go here:

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