More Manual Fire and Ground Targeting (Warning, has game breaking issue)
This mod enables manual fire and ground targetting for many ranged units.
The units I’ve changed to have manual fire and ground targetting cannot go on walls. I cannot do anything about this.
Also I skipped many units because manual fire simply can not be added to them:
- Missile cavalry units, including mounted missile heros/lords
- Any unit where ranged attacks only come from the riders (chariots and some war beasts)
If you didn’t know, by default the bind for manual fire is the "insert" key. And if you want to tell a unit to fire at the ground, you hold down "alt" by default.
Note: With this mod enable, to get a ranged unit (that is effected by the mod) to melee attack, you will now need to put them melee mode first. This is because alt+click is (annoyingly) both the shortcut for ordering a ranged unit to melee-attack and ordering a ranged unit to shoot at the ground.
All the WH1/WH2 units got the same treatment as the WH3 ones, so whenever the combined campaign comes out, this mod should be ready to go.
This is a vanilla-only mod.
Any compatibility mod would be equivalent to just redoing the whole mod. If anyone does end up making one, just release it as it’s own thing, that’ll be fine.
I’m usually on the Modding Discord[discordapp.com]. You can ask questions there. Also feel free to DM me (ChaosRobie#1489).
