Mod question: Cease or no-fire button for infantry regiments.

Post by conjotter »

Hi.

Is there a tool-bar mod that includes a cease or no-fire button for infantry regiments?

I like to keep a few reserve regiments behind the front line in prone position until needed, but they keep getting up and firing their ammo and suffering fatigue.

This is even more of a problem for units equipped with the much longer-range Sharps rifles. These troops just can't keep their fingers off of the triggers and will fire off all their rounds if given the chance, even if you turn them about-face.

I think artillery batteries have a no-fire button. Why not infantry?

Thanks in advance.

CJ.

Click the Take Control (TC) button, and then lay them down.

They only automatically stand up and fight if you are letting the AI control them.
