Call Nearby Ally Army

Description
This mod makes it so the player now has a button whenever he selects an ally or a vassal army (near the character's portrait), that allows him to summon said army to the location of the last selected army of his own faction as long as they are within 20 units of distance from each other, you can see in the images what that distance is approximately. When the army its summoned, it will then be able to reinforce the player in battles.

HOW IT WORKS
1. The player needs to select the army of his own faction he wants to call an army to. This saves a variable telling the game that army is the last army of the player that was selected.
2. The player then selects an allied army and the button will show up above the portrait window if it is indeed an allied army. If the army is close enough, the tooltip will say that, and upon clicking it, the game will teleport the ally to the player's position as well as giving them a small buff for the turn to their reinforcement range to make sure they are in range to help the player in reinforcing the battle.

NOTES/MINOR BUGS
-The button tells the player wether the allied army is too far or near enough to call the allied army, but if he switches between allied armies, the button doesnt refresh. To accurately gauge the distance, the player right now should deselect one allied army before clicking the next.

REQUIREMENTS/COMPATIBILITIES
Requires UI Modding Framework to work.
Should work with most mods and overhauls.
Savegame compatible.

-THIS MOD IS DISCONTINUED-

It might still function but you are better off not trying it, as I cant test to make sure its working as intended. I havent got the time anymore to update my mods unfortunately, but they are up for grabs if anyone wants to continue them and make their own versions, anyone is allowed to do anything with any part of any mod I made.

Alright, this mod is making my game crash for some reason. Im playing as the HF and every time I get a military alliance with another faction (so far only tested with fellow HF factions) the game crashes when I select their armies. I disabled this mod and it worked again. I can provide more info of my load order and mod list should u require it.

I run 39 mods, most of them minor and none which have conflicts, and I had a persistent issue of crashing to desktop on turns between 90-96 depending on the campaign. After removing them one by one I found this mod to be the one which caused the CTD during the enemy turn. It could be a coincidence, but I get so little use out of this mod that I'll be dropping it. Thanks for the work, though.

The tool-tip for the button were causing the CTD.
Something must have changed the way they were implemented with this update.
