[Mod/script request] - adding units to AI settlements during sieges

**alpaca** · 11-16-2006, 21:10

Well it would be possible, but I don't know if you can make effective assumptions for the strength of a player's army, so it might not be a very good system (being either too weak or too strong in most cases). And I don't like things that the AI gets for free very much.

Well the AI is much better this time around with sending a relief force capable of defeating the attackers. As opposed to RTW where they really didnt care if you seiged their settlement and basically left the defenders to themselves.

Lordbula did this for RTW - so yes, it'll certainly be possible in M2TW.

Yeah, I remember Lord Bula doing that for RTW. :D Should be even more possible for M2TW given scripts are apparently loaded each time.

Does anyone know how to do it and is willing to give it a go?

Wow, that looks like a look of hard work and is probably beyond my basic scripting skills. Am I right in that we'd have to do a script for each settlement on the map and then for each faction?? eurgh!

Yes pretty much. It's more of a work for a script generator program.
