Combat and Stacking Overhaul .3

Hi great mod !!! It’s working great on my pc however I tried to use it in the iPad version but it did the same problem ranged vs ranged units , I know that the iPad version ain’t fully updated like the pc version but is there a way to make this work on the current version of the iPad or should I wait till it gets the full update like the pc one ?


New update : I changed the
<LoadOrder>1000</LoadOrder>
To
<LoadOrder>10200</LoadOrder>
And the mod works on IPad

Love the mod so far. I was just wondering if Persia is working as intended. They function like archers rather than warriors when it comes to stacking limits, which takes them down from one of my favorite unique units to being a little meh. Their melee strength is only 30 and their attack is 25. This makes a great classical era archer, for sure, but the cost of losing swordsmen is a little steep.

That said, there is some tactical advantage in being able to let the Immortals stand solo sometimes and "tank" for a wounded retreating Spearman, etc.

edit: So, after a bit more play I think the Immortal might not be as imbalanced as I initially thought. They're built quickly and the choice between range and melee is pretty powerful.

Another great mod, Gedemon!
One possible bug: The resource bonuses don't seem to work when acquired through Hattusa's unique bonus.
 
Seems to work with R&F from cursory testing so far, haven't had a comprehensive look yet tho (No Hattusa for instance) and am only in Medieval Era. Anyone else test this for R&F compatibility yet?
 
How would I make changes to bring back the Observation Balloon now that we have the Drones as well? I'd appreciate a quick tutorial if at all possible.
 
Another quick question for self tailoring,

In CSO_Rules file line 41 reads:

UPDATE Units SET FormationClass = 'FORMATION_CLASS_SUPPORT' WHERE PromotionClass = 'PROMOTION_CLASS_RECON' AND Domain = 'DOMAIN_LAND';

Is that the line I delete to change recon units back to recon and not support? It looks like the change but it also reads green in notepad ++ which looks to me like it might just be comments? I am unsure.

Thanks in advance for clarification.
 
Is this mod still compatible for Rise and fall expansion? Even with the new ranged units of the new civ’s?
 
Should be.

@Bunions: it's commented out, the active code is a few lines below.
 
Gedemon, would it be possible to have only the 2UPT (range and melee on one tile) part of this mod as a standalone mod?
 
Gedemon -
Been using this mod (now heavily commented for only stacking) for long time. Have you thought about getting back to this?
 
No, sadly I don't have time to maintain many mods, I'm focused on YnAMP and my W.I.P. overhaul (which include parts of this mod)
 
I’m using this mod so far in Gathering Storm and it’s working so far till the industrial Era but I haven’t played much after
The units stack’s up right and no strategic resources are required to built them so am guessing that the mod is working
The only line I had to add was the comptability version line that was mentioned in another thread by
Gedemon

I like in this mod that ranged units have range 1 - but it is not so for hoplite and pitati archer...
what should I do?
I tried to change CSO_Rules like this:

/* Range = 1 for all Ranged Land/Sea unit */
UPDATE Units SET Range ='1' WHERE (RangedCombat > 0 OR Bombard > 0) AND (Domain = 'DOMAIN_LAND' OR Domain = 'DOMAIN_SEA');
UPDATE Units SET Range ='1' WHERE UnitType = 'UNIT_GREEK_HOPLITE' OR UnitType = 'UNIT_NUBIAN_ARCHER';

but it did not work...
 
Ok, I was wrong with the Nubian unit name, Now I have:

UPDATE Units SET Range ='1' WHERE UnitType = 'UNIT_NUBIAN_PITATI' OR UnitType = 'UNIT_GREEK_HOPLITE';

and it still has no effect on the two units... the first line works, though...
 
Hoplite is not ranged in my game.

So try to check your other mods and change the load ordre accordingly.

the line
Code:
UPDATE Units SET Range ='1' WHERE (RangedCombat > 0 OR Bombard > 0) AND (Domain = 'DOMAIN_LAND' OR Domain = 'DOMAIN_SEA');
change the range for all land and sea units that have a ranged or bombard strength, no unit can escape the change, except if another mod change them back later in the load order.

OK, it is Quo's Mod that makes anti-cavalry ranged... and there I found the hoplite and pitati thing, so I changed it to range 1 there... thanks...
