[eMOD] Choose when to recruit your champions v 0.90 for LH 0.75

Instead of being forced to recruit a Champion when you reach the fame threshold, you gain a spell with the same effect

from Elemental Forums

Hi all, there have been some comments in the forum from people who would prefer to recruit champions at their own time instead of being forced to do it when they reach the Fame threshold. This mod provides that ability.

When the Fame threshold is reached, instead of having to choose a champion you are awarded a spell called "Recruit Champion" that does the same. I have given this spell a very high AI priority to encourage the AI to cast it.

I have uploaded the mod to the WinCustomize gallery

Alternatively you can download it from Microsoft Skydrive

To install it, backup the "CoreGameEvents.xml" file in the "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\FE Legendary Heroes\data\English" folder, then replace by the file provided here.

Great! Will use, and thanks.

Glad you find it useful. If you try it and find any issue please let me know. I gave the spell a huge AI Priority so it should be an autocast every time the AI reaches the Fame threshold, but it's the first time I mod AI so it could not work.

Very interesting. This mod would most certainly be included upon install.

Thanks and please keep the this mod live and up to date! It's going to be as game changing as parrotmath's snaking mod.

Uhm, this mod redefines the game for me.

Does this mod require any further work now that 1.0 has been released?

- Is there a popup informing you that you have received the 'summon hero' spell when the appropriate level of fame is reached?

Hello GFireflyE. Sorry for taking some time in answering.

I have not tested it in 1.0, because I decided to wait until the game becomes stable to continue my modding, but it should work in 1.0 because the part of the game engine used has not changed (at least that I know).

About the pop up, yes, you get a pop up informing you that you have a champion available to recruit.

Thanks Oliver! Will try this mod out (but nevertheless hope it finaly inspires Upstream as a proof of concept).

 

Is it possible to have such a mod for city level up as well?

Hello Puntarenas. Thanks for your words :)

About your question, do you mean to delay the city level up until the time you wish to do so?

Exactly! That would solve several issues:

1) getting rid of another UI blocking pop-up

2) being able to gather all necessary informations before coming to an (ill-informed) decision for the cities path

3) city #1 often levels up the first time before you really can tell what other settleable spots are in your direct neighborhood, so it is particularly hard to choose
