ok, sorry for pestering you then

I doubt the mod causes it, and I had random battle crashes myself even without any mods. I didn't touch the hero abilities or the tactical battles themselves--I just changed the conditions so the options you get are the same whether or not you have a hero present.

Here's the error report in case it helps

p.s It's the Redouble Assault ability , though weirdly sometimes it results in a crash and other times doesn't

Turns out it is working with the latest beta - i'd just not set it to active. There is a bug that sometimes causes a crash when fighting against Hadrigel and one of their heroes uses an ability in battle. Not sure if it's caused by a bug in the beta, a bug in the mod, or both. Will screenshot the error report next time it happens.

Thanks again for making the mod though

fair point - didn't realise that. Tbh the AI seems to be bad strategically and pretty terrible in battles, even in the latest beta so i'll likely just wait in the hope later patches improve both

@dmcf
That's a tricky issue. If I make it work for the beta it might stop working for people using the regular release. I haven't touched the game in over a year now so I'm not sure if most people are using the beta or not.

Doesn't seem to be working along with the latest beta patch

ist ok

Must be a fault with the game itself then

@dmcf
This mod only changes the file AutoBattleForm.cs, a UI file. From a cursory glance that file does not seem to effect recruiting heroes, so I don't think this is causing it.

One minor fault when using this is that if you don't take the first heroes you're offered, you don't get offered any more. (Don't know if it's a fault with the mod or with the game itself)

Really good mod, thank you.
I wish the devs make this feature as well.

since there is only a only-autobattles-mode in the game but nothing like this - this mod helps players alot who enjoy the battles! and it helps the game in many aspects.

(unless just beaten a hero army is always "filled" there woudn´t be tough defending battles..
and oversea invading armys still have a hard time but a chance - they didn´t have without a hero.. and the idea of round limitation takes affect more often - hardly ever did without this mod besides getting close to..)

since the developers did alot of improvement to AI in battles - this mod doesn´t make it too easy.. and altough i got the point they made for not implementing such a mode in the game - giving this choice to the player - is the right choice! thanks!

Great! Thanks a lot!

Great! - thanks for making this

sounds pretty good :D
