Description
Getting tired of 90% of your your battles happening in a town? This mod forces field battles to occur when assaulting a minor settlement. Note: I do not believe this impacts port towns, not sure how to change that at this time, but still should significantly reduce the time spent in lame town battles. As a defending player, you will still have the option to decide what you would like to do (sally fourth or hole up in the town). This mod more or less forces the ai to sally fourth when attacked. Walled province capitols will still be subject to normal sieges.

It seems to work in every campaign, including Empire Divided.

what I'm really tired of is the AI ALWAYS coming out of cities to fight me, it doesn't make any sense. I would like this function to be disabled in my game.

so I was looking for a mod that makes town battles 100% of the time, I see there is none :(

@phazer - Gladius is still Latin for 'Sword' :)

Thank you very much, you are totally right about 99% being dull city battles:) Great work. Btw. do you know if there is a reference for functions to call from the scripts? Can't you write in one of my mods or friend me if you have an idea about the reference?

Its not happening to me when I test it so I don't know what to tell you. I can't fix a problem if it doesn't exist.

Lets see, you had this problem with previous mod, have this problem with this mod, and you seem to be the only person reporting this problem, but its everyone elses issue for not having the problem and not yours.

Have you looked at the code? Could you even understand it? Maybe if you did you would see how ludicrous it is to assert the logic between politics and the sally out chance is linked. There is utterly no connection between the two whatsoever. Oh lets educate a child, lets see what the percentage chance is that the AI will sally out to see if we will apply the education bonus! That sounds completely logical!

Yes, it does. I use exactly two mods. I disabled both of them. I then tested each one by itself to see which one was causing the problem. And this mod was it. It was clear as day: enabled- +0 / disabled- +2. The other mod both enabled or disabled +2. Hell, I just checked it again and came-up with the exact same results. This mod is causing the bug!

It's all academic now. I deleted your mod and will not be using it again. It clearly caused the bug and I'm going to believe "my lying eyes" over you. My guess it's something on your end causing your not seeing any problems.

1. No it doesn't. For the sake of being thorough I started a new game with the mod enabled to test this. I educated a child, came of age and properly had the bonuses from education applied.
2. There is no link between between the two features. Sallying out is simply a global flag with a percentage number. There would be utterly no reason for CA to tie that flag to politics in any way shape or form.

My guess is its something on your end causing the issue because I am not seeing any problems.

This mod bugs the "Educate" political action. If you have this mod enabled then you won't get any benefit from tutoring your family's children. It will always be +0 attributes rather than +2.

The new political action system and "sally-out" mods don't seem to be fully compatible. One of the older sally-out mods caused all sorts of issues with the political system. With this mod, I only noticed the above issue as to "Educate." Ttere is clearly a link between the AI's sally-out behavior and the political system.
