Way to have random AI troops generated by computer in XCOM 2 be FULLY random in appearance

xcom-2

From what I can tell in Xcom EU and Xcom 2, the computer random generated troops that you can hire from are "random" in name and such but overall are limited to a set pool of created appearances. You will eventually start looping through the same looking soldiers if you go through enough.

Is there a way in the .ini files (or another way, I suppose) so that the computer generates truly random troops- going through each customizable option- skin tone, hair, each wardrobe choice, etc- and choosing from 1 to the full number of options?

I would love to see completely random troops to choose from, not just a large but recurring pool-

By default, new units:

  • Never have tattoos, facepaint, or scars
  • Never have weapon or armor camo
  • Have hair-color, skin-color, and armor-color chosen from an extremely limited pool
  • Always have the same eye color(!!)

Fortunately, a very handsome author has recently created a mod for making rookies much more random: Rookie Customization Options
