game speed

[crypel]

hi there

is there a possibility of slowing the battle speed down? not just by triggering the slowmotion button but by decreasing the movement speed and increasing the shield or something like that. i don't like the fact that the infantry is almost as fast as cavalry when running and the whole battle is already over before i even can see oder manage everything...I want to have real control and need time for that and don't want to press the pause oder slowdown button all the time...well may be i'm just getting old...but is there a way to manipulate the files to slow the gameplay down or already an existing mod or thread?

thanks and cheers

I am pretty sure it can be done, a few mods incorporate movement rate changes for the troops.

The only way seems to be by adjusting the "unit_movement_modifiers". This does not adjust the "Units" speed individually, just the terrain the unit is travelling over. This is not very helpful though as it applies to all units but does as least slow the battle down.
Piperprinx's slow battle mod allows you to slow down the action from between 90 to 20 percent of vanilla speed using the above method.

As far as I can see, all units have the same movement allowance allocated according to a few generic "Types" i.e. Infantry, Cavalry, Artillery etc This means that Camels, Elephants and Horses all move at the same speed as they are all regarded as "Cavalry" Different Infantry types also have the same speed as each other. I hope someone with more skill can correct me on this but that is what I have found upto yet.

Just like with RTW and M2TW, this was the first thing I wanted changed. The default movement speeds are just insane IMO. I'm glad to hear it's not just me getting old
