Restricted generals replacement

Description
It is a mod which aims to make replacing generals a little more realistic than it was made in the vanilla. That change could be especially significant in case of a threat of the civil war when some of your armies are stationed on the borders of the empire and are commanded by generals from other parties.

What it does?
1/ the replacement option was completely removed from the game
2/ the recruitment of new generals was restricted and now it is possible only in the capital with following exceptions:
- when your general dies you still get pop-up message to appoint new general (it cannot be changed and in my opinion is justified by the gameplay reasons)
- you are still able to raise new fleets in every region with port (justified by the gameplay reasons)
- you are stiill able to reinstate lost army in every settlement (could be disabled but again - I think it is at some point justified).

In order to send your general on retirement you have to pass all the troops to other general and then disband general unit (which means that you will have to reinstate the disbanded army but is some kind of necessary tradeoff).

Is it compatibile with other mods?
Yes - if they don't contain any scripts (which means that it cannot be used with most of the overhaul mods).

Is it save game compatibile?
Yes

Can it be safely turn off during the campaign?
Yes.


It is a standalone part of a small submod prepared for DeI which currently could be find on twcenter (I will probably upload it also on the steam in the near future).

Have fun!

If anyone want to appreciate my work also in other way than giving a feedback here is the way[paypal.me].

Great mod!Many thanks to the author for providing such a MOD that can improve the gameplay almost from the underlying logic.I have made a recommendation in the Chinese community.

Another great mod. This removes the ability to cheese movement points. There is an exploit where you can basically replace a general and get double the movement points. Great having this for multiplayer campaigns too

@Warriordude I am not an expert in scripting but I don't think that something like that is possible and even if, it would be really hard to make it work for AI.
And for making battle losses more significant it should be enough to drastically increase the cost of recruitment (and probably remove some buffs provided for the AI).

This might be a little off topic, maybe? Would it be possible to limit units to how many Stars a General has or rank, example a 1 star general can only recruit like lets say 6 units then as the General increases rank he can add 2 more units up to a max 8 star General with 20 units. Maybe have it work for AI as well, not sure it would be possible though? That in my opinion would make the game a lot more fun and even make battle losses more catastrophic especially during early campaign?
