Psionic Melee

Description
After meeting the Templars, a few of XCOM's Psi Operatives took a liking to their ferocity in melee and started bringing shard gauntlets instead of psi amps into battle.

Using shard gauntlets on a Psi Operative doesn't grant focus or any of the other Templar abilities, but it does allow a pretty effective melee attack with a 100% hit rate. However the soldier's psi bonuses will be much less (and actually a penalty at conventional tier) due to the lack of a psi amp; attacks like Soulfire also do less damage with gauntlets equipped.

Special thanks to ObelixDk for making the animations used when soldiers don't have a psi amp equipped, and to Ginger for helping me debug the visualization code.

WOTC only.

For some reason, I can't use the upgraded Shard Blade

Using this alongside RPG Overhaul - Templar Disciple Specialization and I can't generate Focus, even though the latter specifically says it should, and that they are both meant to work together.

Any help would be appreciated <3

I just crafted my new tempest gauntlets, and it seems as if the mod has converted the regular advanced gauntlets to the "replace_psiamp" category: my templar can't equip tempest gauntlets, however, my RPGO soldiers can (in the secondary slot). Is there anyway to revert the tempest gauntlets to a "gauntlet" category? Disabling the mod only makes the tempest gauntlets disappear from my inventory and from engineering...
