number of ready units bug??

[kuntakintay]

ive noticed this a few times already, whenever i attack i am almost ALWAYS out numbered.. and its not because i have less its because something is not working right.. here an example, my faction was fighting an enemy faction, my faction had 2 people fighting in it, one had 200 units out of 230  (30 were injured) 2nd group for my faction had 110/150 (40 were injured)
the enemies had something similar, 2 groups except they had less, something like 100/160 and 120/150, now when im added to my faction, (i had 100 troops ready) it should be 440 vs 220, i charge in to help my faction, and it says i have some random number like 140 ready to fight their 220.. is this a bug with this mod? am i doing something wrong?

It could be a bug, or maybe a lord left as you joined in or something. Fight the battle, or leave, check, then go in. After you should try joining another battle, see if it's still bugged.

its been happening for 330 days of gameplay, i just never cared because i can win.. but im fighting these ridiculous bosses with crazy monsters and its hard to win when im out numbered and it takes 7 shots to kill them

and no they are all still there, even when i retreat and leave

if this is a bug why isnt it happening to other people? or are they not noticing?

i just figured the issue out, it has somethign to do with the cap of 32 different troops, i started disbanding all my troops and when i went to the same fight the number of fighters ready actually went way up.. is this a bug or intended?

the diversity in my party makes it harder to fight with allies apparently

That's not a bug, and it's not going anywhere. It's harcoded and thus is impossible/VERY VERY VERY VERY DIFFICULT to change. I didn't quite get what you were saying in your first post, but now I understand. Just try and keep the amount of different troops in your party at 32 or less at all times. I wish it was 42 though.

Your tactics skill determines how many troops you can field against an enemy. Enemy lords have tactics skill also.

it was at 32, which is why the amount of troops allowed to fight were lowered.. i had 110 troops, 32 different, and it picks my troops first to fight.. so thats 110 troops gauranteed to fight, than it picks from the other 2 parties the same troops to add to the amount of ready troops.. so having the cap of 32 troops in your party is actually a bad idea.. once i lowered the amount of people in my gorup and only had 10 different types of troops the number of "ready" troops went up iin the same fight, seems kinda messed up to me.. but i can get used to it

Yeah, it is annoying, but unfortunately a problem from native and not from the mod, which means we can't change it. Let's hope that warband addresses this issue.
