OSP Kit Combat Battlefield Tactics kit. Multiple formations per team+command revamp!

[Spartan711]

Wow, this is great, I have been waiting for something like this for ages.  Now all we need is a few AI tweaks and battle instance timers to get it to feel right and we have it dead to rights.

Another thing, I don't know about you guys but it seems to me a little aggravating to have the routing troops just walk away with full health.  I kinda like the Total War series version where the slightest touch after they start to run means they fall down and give up, leading to them being taken prisoner...  Wonder if we couldn't do something like that?

Maybe after an enemy unit flees, we give each AI 200 blunt damage? Or better yet just count a broken unit as a prisoner... Hmmm....  but that would make a VERY easy series of large battles even easier... maybe we could balance this with a severe player handicap?  Perchance it should be to the point that seeing a foe flee with less then 4:1 odds in your favor would be unheard of...  It would make it a little more challenging 

I'll play with some numbers and see how the increased difficulty works out.

Did you compile the files? Double click on build_module.bat.

yes, I did that. will try again.

right, so I added the codes to the python files, in the correct places I think, but nothing happens in-game.
is there something I need to do to get it to work in game?

Did you go through the documentation???

I don't know what that means, please illuminate

 

[Nikephoros]

Did you put the RIGHT destination folder?

It may sound dumb, but i couldn't play for that stupid mistake

 

[kavien]

yes, the right ones
Module_Mission_templates.py
[triggers section]
Module_scripts.py
[bottom of]

===================
I', not 100% sure that they are in the right spot though, could you please show me the right spot in the python files?

 

[Instag0]

Is it possible to simply make it so all (AI included) iinfantry & cavalry automatically form ranks three men deep? I'd really appreciate this. It'd be a nice lightweight mod that'd essentially fix the unrealistic & impractical formation of infantry one man deep set against many cavalrymen. A nice fix to the Rhodocks & Nords would improve the game much.

 

[Gallus Domesticus]

has anyone figured out how to fix the cowardice problem?
Two formations are just stand there because the "leader"s ai want distance from the enemy.

quoted for necessity.

It's a problem when you're facing a cavalry charge.

 

[pentagathus]

Is there a deeper formation than the one created when you press j?

 

[Gallus Domesticus]

We should have the script automatically change the width of the formation based on the number of troops present.

For example: if number of infantry is less than 24, make the formation to 7x7 instead of 12x12. If it's greater than 144 then form 15x15 formations.

 

[Zendarian]

Please upload this to mbrepository. Lots of people seem to be having difficulty with installing this mod. If you could release a version which obverwote the Native files that would be great.

 

[Instag0]

I agree. The only reason I haven't bothered trying this yet is the unusually lengthy installation process.

To add it in, simply follow the instructions below:

Copy and past the following under the triggers section of the "lead_charge" mission template (or any other template in which you desire formations):

This should be awesome !

Does anyone know which file I need to copy and paste the first code into ? From what I understand the second code goes into module_scripts.py.

I have no idea where to put the code. I put it in a file i thought was right but when i started it up it said to many likes in ini file so i just took it out. can anyone show me a a directory of where its at like C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\blablablablablablabla

Thanks.

How would you go about creating more formations?

Mess around with the scripts, change columns, distance apart, other things.

I could spen hours, i'm kind of a noob when it comes to game codes, even more with M&B it looks very unfamiliar. sorry i need help but i don't want to spend a week trying to get it right so if anyone could help thatd be great, ill keep trying but who knows.

Was just wondering whether I could get custom formations in my mod.

OK Kids.

Step 1: Download the module system, it's on a stickied thread on the top of the forum.

Step 2: Download Python 2.5 from sourceforge.  Google it.

Step 3: Learn how to compile the module system to create a basic mod.

Step 4: Learn a little of how the module system works - do a simple change like altering the price of a piece of armour, making horses faster, or changing what some troops wear.  This will take you a few days. 

Step 5: Once you understand how the module system works and how to compile and play a separate module, go to the original post of this thread and paste the code in the correct places and compile.  Congratulations, you now have formations and battle morale working ingame.

If you cannot or will not follow these steps then stop asking silly questions and wait for someone to upload a precompiled version.

I seem to be having troubles getting this into mount & blade. Unfortunately im not sure your being specific enough for me. I cannot find module_scripts.py, or any .py file for that matter. I do not understand what the trigger section of the lead_charge is. Im have version .955 although i don't think that is a problem. If anyone could messege me with a little more specific directions it would be awsome. I would love some new formations. Plz help

*Sigh*. Download the module system. This has got to be the 15th time "I can't find module_scripts.py" has been posted.
