    Default Two Ranks Fire!

    Dear Modders and Visitors,

    I just wondering if somebody can create a sub-mod for DMN where only 2 ranks fire? adding the 'skirmisher' trait to all the units but also do the formation tighter so the third rank etc couldn't see the enemy. Thank you in advance.

    I have also been wanting a submod that replaces all units that use 3 rank fire with 2 rank "fire at will" type fire.

    Oh, guys. You have to do it manually. Changing to Skirmish ability bla bla and make the formations tighter etc.

    I have tried that but the units still use 3 rank fire.

    It is impossible to make only 2 ranks fire. 3-4 may shoot when they see the enemy. Don't forget that units' formations have to be tighter.

    I'd really love if somebody made this. I'm clueless as to how to do it myself and I'm under the impression I must edit each and every unit individually?

    i would help, but i don't have time atm
    and yes as Bran said it's really time consuming.You have to edit each unit separately.

    I think you mean looser.

    Again, tighter? You sure?

    That is correct.

    Check out NER and EIC mods. They seem to have somewhat functional 2 rank fire implementations. Also, again, dat profile.

    Oh, there's also a mod out there that implements that and that only, unlike NER and EIC, that are standalone almost expansions. But seeing how it must modify the projectiles tables, it will ruin the ranges and effects of all of Darthmod's guns. Still, it would be a great reference to work with, but in my experience, the second rank rarely fired, so I dropped it for superior implementations, like the above mentioned NER and EIC.
