Supply Realism - Ammo distribution made plausible

Description
Im back!
Yes, i've been away for a while. Had other 'projects' & no motivation to play GoH in the previous months. But since i started to play i again, i felt like giving modding another try.

The mod should properly work with the newest version of the game & all DLCs again.

Intro:
Im not really a fan of "cheating mods", even they are very abundant on the workshop.

Aimed to create something more realistic, affecting how much ammo is available on which supply unit. Especially trucks received a massive increase of supplies, since the model has multiple supply crates/boxes on the bed.

Let's take a Opel Blitz truck for example - it has 11 visible crates on the model, so it should have at least factor x10 compared to a ammo standard ammo crate. See below for detail calculation! Depending on nation it adds some variety Maybe it's a good idea too keep a captured truck because it can hold more supply?

Features:
  • Plausible supply amount for crates & trailers depending on size.
  • Plausible supply amount for trucks, based on visible crates/boxes on models
    ...Yes i counted em myself ;)
  • No unrealistic supply regeneration, because did you ever see stuff appear out of nowhere? I didn't D:
  • 5-8 meters extra supply range for all supply units.
  • More supply for medics tents. (x3)

  • Plausible resources for fuel & engineer trucks.
  • Heavy ammo now also available for the supply trailer. (Idk why this have been left out?!)

Detail calculation
Normal crate (L) = 500 Supply Medium crate (M) = 250 Supply Small Box (S) = 125 Supply

Germany
  • Standard crate - 500 (1xL)
  • Trailer small - 750 (6xS)
  • Trailer medium - 2000 (???)¹
  • Truck - 6000 (11xL 4xS)
  • Half-truck - 7500 (11xL 7xM 2xS)

USA
  • Standard crate - 500 (1xL)
  • Trailer medium - 2625 - (3xL 3xM 3xS)
  • Truck - 6000 (3xL 16xM 4xS)
  • Large Truck - 7375 (5xL 17xM 3xS)

USSR
  • Standard crate - 500 (1xL)
  • Truck - 4000 (4xL 6xM)
  • Trailer large - 6000 (???)¹

Finland
  • Standard crate - 500 (1xL)
  • Truck V3000 - 6375 (4xL 16xM 7xS)
  • Truck 3-ton - 6375 (4xL 16xM 7xS) [New!]

¹Amount estimated by model size compared to standard crate or respective counterpart w/o tarp or cover.

Compatibility
This is a very lightweight mod, what makes it very compatible with other mods.
However it is most likely not compatible with total conversations mods that add and/or change maps, vehicles & huge amount of the gameplay.

Applying my mod at the end of the load order should make my changes stay, since they overwrite conflicting mod-files.
Do this on your own responsibility!

Compatibility added for mods:
(Won't affect unit research or vanilla conquest.)
  • German Trailer - Model SA57 - 2000 (???)¹ [New!]
  • German Half-Truck - Opel Maultier - 5125 (9xL 2xM 1xS)
  • German Light Tank - Munitionsschlepper I - 4000 (???)¹ ² [New!]
  • British Truck - Bedford Supply - 4500 (9xL)² [New!]

¹Amount estimated by model size compared to standard crate or respective counterpart w/o tarp or cover.
²Added by the wonderful Conquest Rebalanced mod. You should check it out!

@Everyone
Found time & patience to update the mod. It should properly work again! :hardgrave:
Decided to re-do it with the current version of resupply files, due to not playing GoH since a few updates. Also added two new supply vehicles.

Know issue: If it won't update for you correctly you may have to re-subscribe ;)

Always been stupid and arcade ( when the game is ment to be realistic) with ammo respawning in crates, maybe if they had a ability to send the empty truck back, and you see it drive/walk back to refill it back and takes 10 minutes irl time, and should deduct ammo stocks from your reserves in conquest. Also being able to restock a arty cannon with a ammo crate is bullshit, let alone being able to restock enemy weapons with ammo from your factions crate??, why couldn't it be like Men of war 2, it was simple and realistic then.

Can you make Supply long range mod?
Adler4 20 Feb, 2024 @ 3:20pm 
I guess it doesn't work with valour the trucks from other factions are not the same as them from vanilla after all...

@Cosmik Debris
You will have more supply cost (ressource of conquest) so yes!

But if you bought 5 supply trucks in the vanilla game and emtpy them all, you also have high costs ;)
Cosmik Debris 30 Jan, 2024 @ 1:49am 
So if I empty a supply truck, would the vanilla and modded have the same re-fill cost or would the modded ones increased capacity get calculated and thus be higher?
ТоЬЫэЯ™  [author] 15 Jan, 2024 @ 12:11pm 
It's not per se 'cheating'. However you could resupply the units and just buy a new, restocked supply vehicles. But that is how the game works rn.

In the end YOU have to enjoy it and nobody else ;)

Thank you, I wasnt aware that ressuply before ending battle is cheating. ! I'm a big noob. Already tried all mods and I'm happy with them, excellent job. Makes battles a bit easier so I would reccomend to everyone to go for harder difficulty one notch. I went from easy to normal xd

@BlueSpeed
You can always 'cheat' (conquest) supply mechanics, by resupplying units before you leave the match also in vanilla game. It may be just more dramatically impacting (re-)supply costs of supply vehicles because their increased supply pool hereby higher (potential) costs for supply vehicles.

The mod itself doesn't change the cost of re-supply tho!

Hello. Do I calculate right if I think that with this mod I should resuppl units while in battle? To save on dinamic conquest ammunitionc
