Courier And Mini-Map Mods Updated to 1.610

Many thanks.

I was never clear on this - does this mod also include your extra morale effect for flank and rear fire, the reduced rate of fire we experimented with in MP, the harsher AI and the lower break and run then reform mechanic for all troops?

I'm assuming not, since those are HITS changes and you have only ever said this was a couriers and maps mod.

Are the HITS mods gathered somewhere in an easy package I could install please?

They are all in there including the new maintain formation while advancing commands. I probably need to change the name of this mod since it does much more than just add courier commands and new maps.

Please explain the two files in the logistics file that are to be extracted to the Same (?) logistics file?
What effect does this have? Does this mod conflict with he latest DRF mod?

"They are all in there including the new maintain formation while advancing commands."

Are you talking about formation commands on the tool bar or those listed in the courier order screen?

Two of the files, rifles.csv and battledefs.ini significantly change the the number of casualties needed to make a regiment break. From the flank and rear, it is only 5 - 15 casualties. From the front, a regiment will break, on average when it receives ~30% casualties. The rates of fire have been reduced to more historic rates, so the amount of time the regiment is under fire will be about the same as in the stock game which requires ~50% casualties before they will break.

The formation commands are toolbar commands only. If you want to use the DRF toolbar place it below the Courier&Maps mod on your modifications screen.

What is the DRF toolbar, please?

Hey Marching, the really nice random maps just put up by Garnier don't work with this great mod. The larger frame is there but the mini-map inside it is the usual small size. Same with the Pipe Creek maps. Is there any way to make them compatible?

See my answer in the other thread.

I am actually making mini-maps with names for the version 2 random maps. I hope to add them to the mod this week. The latest batch, version 4, I'm not going to do anything with unless one of the maps is especially good and people clamor for it to be included. So you will have to use the small couriers & maps mod to play those.
