AI Sallies Out in Settlement Battles!

In 1 collection by Sheph

Description
At some players' request, I have pushed the AI to fight the settlement battles in the field.
You will only notice this if you fight the battle, not using auto resolve.
Percentage chance that the AI will choose to fight you on the field for non-port, minor settlement battles
Up from 0 to 80%

Percentage chance that the AI will choose to fight you at night 5 to 15% here

Percentage chance that the AI will choose to fight you at night for settlement battles 5 to 15% here

Test and provide feedback. There's a chance that these are dead variables, but it seems to work.
Ideally, this will benefit the defenders if they have sufficient cav and melee troops in the garrison.
I would not recommend you use this mod with Vanilla size garrisons.

This mod is a special request which I used to do frequently.

I don't have time to recall if this is possible my past expertise; I don't think what you're asking was every possible.
For your request, I would need you to identify a similar mod in Attila or another total war game.
I could backtrack from there.

@littleShepard Just read your "sally out" comment, I havent tried it yet but that in my very specific situation would make the mod useless if it was still (technically) a settlement battle lol. Damn.. I just want the option to use the AI Attack and AI Defend orders in all battles I'd edit the files myself if someone didn't feel like making the mod but perhaps willing to point me in the right direction? lol :steamfacepalm:

I like to use the AI Attack and AI Defend orders alot with certain units. For whatever reason when in a settlement battle I could never do that, So this mod would actually be perfect for me. Thank you. :D

I agree. Maybe I should set it at 50%? I don't think CA implemented that logic into Attila, which is why that set it at 0% sallying. Without this battle, they will sally out against siege and when they are larger in size. The mod was created for only certain users.

Are the chance dependant on if the enemy is superior or equal in numbers to yours? Would be awkward if they're inferior in numbers and sallies out to meet you. Not strategically appropriate there.

The variable I modified had this description: Percentage chance that the AI will choose to fight you on the field for non-port, minor settlement battles.
So "sally out" is a misleading statement.
They actually will appear on a battlemap with no settlement. Correct me if you see something different.

So this mod means if you attack a settlement the battle will be in the field 80% of the time? Or if you're besieging a settlement they will sally out (attack on end turn) more often? or both?
