4.4 Settlement View Script (thanks alpaca)
In the game, you won't notice a difference, everything will look as usual (which is intended). To enjoy the view settlement feature, you have to select a settlement on the campaign map, open the construction scroll (click on the construction button or press "b"), then click on the "Locate position of settlement on the map" button to the lower left of the scroll. This will fire up an advisor asking you to press "Show me how" if you want to view your settlement on the campaign map. Since you want to, click the "Show me how" button and you will be taken to the battle loading screen a short time after.
After the battle is loaded, start the battle as normal and you can fly around your settlement without camera restrictions (except for the height and collision restrictions).
When you have seen enough, simply hit the Esc button (on your keyboard) and wait a second until you see the message that the battle is over. Then click on "End Battle" and you will see the result. You will win your battle, but except for the stats that are displayed in your kingdom overview, this won't change anything in the game.
Notes:
- The advisor will only pop up if the settlement was garrisoned when you selected it.
- The installer checks your camera restriction setting at install time and writes it into the campaign script. If you want to change it,
edit the "set_counter camera_restrict 0" line to "set_counter camera_restrict 1" or vice-versa
- You can cheat your unit experience by attacking the catapult if you think it's worth it. But it isn't
- Don't deselect your settlement while the advisor is active but before pressing show-me or dismissing it, or the script won't work
