Fully Custom Garrison – 7.0 Update

Fully customize your garrisons by adding exactly the units you want to defend your settlements.
Also allows you to take your units out of the garrison again or disband them.
This does not work for standard garrison units added by buildings, those cant be interacted with.

No general needed anymore, recruit your units directly into the settlement garrison.

No more boring default garrisons, with greatly adjustable garrison generation settlement armies will be much more varied.
Including modded units in garrisons, if the compatibility submod is used.
The AI uses this feature by default, but should you not want to manage your garrisons, it can be enabled for the player as well.

This feature is currently in BETA and can be enabled in the mct settings.
Settlements provide upkeep free slots for a number of units, any additional units will cost regular upkeep.
For detailed information see the feature guide here.

Every settlement gets a hero randomly selected from the factions available generic heroes.
These heroes can be changed and have skills and spells if this mod is used as well.

CURRENTLY BROKEN — still fixing for 7.0
Multiplayer Sync

A wide range of MCT options are available to adjust garrison strength, build speed, composition and more.
See the guide here for more info.

Adding units to a garrison is as easy as selecting them while your army is inside a settlement and clicking the new button below the disband button.

Taking units out of the settlement is done the same way, by selecting the units in the garrison view of the settlement.

Units can be recruited directly in the settlement via a new button located beside the hero recruit button.
Available recruitment slots depend on the settlement level.
Where possible effects that increase unit rank and reduce recruitment cost are taken into account.
A character in the settlement should give their unit rank and recruit cost bonuses to settlement recruitable units as well.
Since effects are a pain in this context its not perfect!

The mod is generally compatible with most others, exept if they modify specific parts of the settlement ui.
Mods that add factions or units will not be able to utilize them for custom garrisons unless included in the compatibility submod.
Apart from that most things work fine, including mods like SFO and The Old World series.

MCT is listed as a requirement but not absolutely needed, it is heavily recommended but you can play without it.

Since maintaining the submod is a pain, I scripted the whole process, if you want me to include compatibility for your mod, write me a message.
If you really want to know how to set up compatibility for yourself, see this guide.
The unit to faction association is done via units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables so you mod needs to have that table.

Many thanks to the people over at Da Modding Den for the tools and help they provide!
Without them none of this would have been possible!

Anyone is free to reuse/modify/submod my mods/part of my mods for whatever purpose.
Should I ever become inactive or otherwise go MIA anyone is welcome to take over.
