Disclaimer
If you are power user, happy to tweak away, hording options like a dragon, then this mod is not for you, and please try the excellent HUD Enhancements LE1. But if you're looking for a simple, focused on powers mapping mod - you're in the right place. Please read the whole description.
Features
Shortcomings
Modifying UI in Mass Effect is truly a pain, so powers are (un)mapped with only one button. First mapped power will be assigned to RB, second to X, third to Y. Powers now can be also unmapped. Mapped power will at first try to fill an unmapped button in the order previously mentioned, and if every button has a power assigned, then RB mapped power will be replaced. I'm sorry for the confusion, but if you will give it a try, it will become more intuitive.
Also, there are a few player builds, where Shepard may have already 10 powers in the power wheel, in such case first aid won't be added to the list (or will be removed from the list), as there's no space for it. But remember you can always long press Y to activate it.
Incompatibilities
Localization
I can vouch only for English and Polish translation of new string in power wheel (Unmap). All other languages using Latin alphabet have new text made with google translate. Languages not using Latin alphabet are not supported. If you want to see text being improved / added in your language, pls add a comment with the exact line I should add.
