NORUNNNING_DEI

Hi, this mod is a piece of aFUTURE bigger BATTLE MOD fro DEI. I want to make this for other pop mods, but keep in mind that is an unofficla mod.

WHAT THIS MOD DO:
- Any infantry unit is capable only to wal. running is not permitted. The only runnning animation allowed is in the charge phase, in proximity of the enemy.
- Cavalry is not touched

WHY THIS MOD? WHY THIS EXTREME REMOVAL?
1) This extreme action is due to the frustration caused by watching the AI completely destroying the inmmersion making running his army from 2Km. The situation is always the same, the enemy start running and it arrives with low stamina in the combat. further
2) Further, the army arrives usually scombined: skirmisher advance faster, they don't whait the formation.
3) Running animation is (for me, but is subjective) very bad to see
4) From a realism point of view, i think that for organised formation it's impossible to run keeping it (Maybe i am wrong, it's only a supposition)


GOOG ASPECT:
1)Visualy, the approaching of two walking armies is very cinematic to see.
2) All the units arrive at the same time in the battle core
3) The Attacking AI formation advace ordinatly approaching perfectly your army. 32) cavalry is not affected by this. It's very difficult for cavalry to be enghaged by infantry unit (very booring when this happens because you forget to move out the cavalty from a place).

NEGATIVE:
1) To do this mod, a compromise was mandatory. the mod was made imposing equal the walking spee and the run speed. So you can select the 'run botton' but this will cause notthing. To avoid any fatique malus, the running effect on fatique is imposed =0. But this, unfoprtunatley, is extended also to cavalry. So cavalry can run without fatique (i want to try a different way to do this, but now this is what i can offer). This can be conuter-balanced by the fact that also the enemy cavalry is in the same advantage position, so parity is reached.

FUTURE PLANS
i am working in a simple but bigger mod that comprise all my mods to do a sort of BATTLE overhaul, that is my custom-version i play with.
I am learning to mod also the group formations, to force the IA to deploy (and maybe play) like i want (For example, i want the cavalty very distance form the infantry)
