(Possibly) simple mod request: replace Sally-out battles
This is a request / enquiry for the possibility of removing the vanilla sally-out battles and replacing them with normal field battles situated on battle maps adjacent to the city tile.

One of the main things holding me back from playing Rome Remastered campaigns at length is the tedium with sieges and sally-out battles. I rarely besiege a settlement that the auto-resolve doesn't favour me on and sieges where I'm the besieged one are typically unwinnable so I auto-resolve those anyway, whereas sally-out battles are normally initiated by me wanting to break a siege, often at a numerical / quality disadvantage that wouldn't favour me in auto-resolve but would be enough for me to win manually, thus I can't really avoid manually playing the sally-out battles.

One of the few aspects of Rome 2 I prefer over the original Rome is the way it gives you a normal pitched battle when you 'sally out'. With the original Rome, I really hate the giant blobby traffic jam that ensues when you order your army out of the gates and the lack of time you have to then set-up a formation outside the walls. The whole experience is tedious and is immersion-killingly ridiculous-looking. I'd really prefer just to fight a normal pitched battle on an adjacent map tile instead.

So yeah, would anyone know how to create such a mod or point me to an existing mod that enables this? Thanks.
