Modding Unit deployment

[Waxys]

Hello,

Don't know if this is the right place, sorry if it is not.

I would like to be able to make my units forming a larger line. Like, instead of having a unit making a formation of 4 lines*40men, been able to do 2 lines*80men ; larger, wider, covering a bigger space on the map, in short words.
It's already possible, I know that, by using the correct button when you control a unit.
But I would like to be able to do it with the mouse, when I click and drag units on the field. Don't know why but it seems that when you click & drag, you get limited at a size. It seem to been a hiden rule for units with more than 300 men (yeah, I like *2 or more units !), you just can't spread them like you want (you can, but it's not playable at all)

Anyone knows how could I do that ?

Thank !

I think that it is possible, but I don't know how to do it (and I have some experience in modding, especially unit editing). What you're asking is not easy at all, since the act of forming a line is part of the game mechanics. I suggest you PM someone more experienced in that area.

Ok, thank you for your anwser !
I was expecting something moddable with dbe... But if it's game mechanics, guess gonna be hard to achieve.
