Description
Fixed issues
- Passive AI, that does not attack, although it is outgunned in regard to ranged units
- Responsiveness of units to move and formation changes orders: decreased the delay significantly
- Siege AI will no longer line up its forces in front of a settlement
Open field battles
- Skirmish behavior of ranged units is more tolerant against nearby enemy units, resulting in less back and forth movement and more effective shooting time
- Reduced requirements for outflanking movements, so AI cavalry will flank more
- Better formation cohesion *NEW*
Siege battles
- AI will defend wall positions longer, before retreating to the center
- Reduced the threat level of siege engines, and at the same time increased the threat level of enemy units
- Idle AI units should be less frequent
- Improved assault AI
Other
- New projectile values for ranged and artillery units
- Mass values for different artillery projectiles have been balanced according to available historical sources, however it was necessary to introduce some abstraction in regard to game balance
- New differentiated arrow model by Point Blank *NEW*
- Improved projectile effects by Point Blank *NEW*
- Gates, walls and towers get more hitpoints with every upgrade level: higher level castles will require heavy siege equipment
AI Formations
- New AI formations for settlement assault and defense
- Six new AI formations for open field battles

Herefore open your medieval2.preference.cfg and add the lines
