(Discontinued) Adjustable Command Limits

With the introduction of fine-tuned unit counts in 1.5, ACL no longer serves any purpose. As such, development of ACL has stopped and the mod will not be updated for 1.5. Thanks for your support for this mod, and I hope to have your continued support for my other ones!

Standard Victoria 3 gameplay involves generals and admirals who have a set quantity of battalions or flotillas under their control based on their military rank and select character traits. The only thing the player has direct control over is the rank of their commanders and in only one direction: upwards. The player can only raise the command limit of their commanders, never lower them.

This poses an issue for strategy. There are times were the player may want to keep the size of a single general's brigade down. Most notably, the need to match the size of one's brigade with a navy task force in order to efficiently conduct naval invasions. With both navy acquisitions being very slow and generals being promoted during events, it can be very annoying when the player needs to conduct naval invasions, but their armies are simply too large for their navy to support.

ACL aims to solve that by adding buttons on the commander information screens allowing players to adjust the size of one commander's forces dynamically regardless of rank or character traits, allowing for greater strategic flexibility and alleviating some annoyances experienced in the base game.

With ACL, you get:
• The ability to shrink command limits to 75%, 50%, and 25% of the commander's normal command limit.
• The ability to enlarge command limits to 125% of the commander's normal limit, in exchange for a combat penalty.
• Intuitive controls on all commander character screens to tweak command limits.
• Fast response with no caveats - press the button and wait just one tick to immediately adjust a brigade or task force!

ACL comes in with built-in compatibility for Universal Names in the character info panel. No patch mods are required.

-----

This mod makes changes to one vanilla file:
which is the file that defines the character information screen that appears when clicking on any character.
Therefore, this mod will NOT WORK with any mod that makes changes to the character information page.

This mod may conflict with mods that add or change character traits, commander ranks, and/or defines to add, remove, or adjust command limits and/or command limit multipliers. ACL has hard-coded math computations done for calculating certain key values that assume vanilla character traits and values for command limits (i.e. 20 per rank and all vanilla character traits with command limit multipliers are left as is). Mods which change these numbers may cause ACL to compute certain values incorrectly, especially those related to applying the overstacked commander debuff.

ACL is compatible with mods that add more commander ranks as long as the new ranks stick to the vanilla pattern of 20 more regular battalions/flotillas & 40 more conscript battalions per rank.

Mods that do not change any of the aforementioned properties or files should be fully compatible with ACL, as ACL does not change any other vanilla files nor rely on any other behaviors and values.

The following is a list of mods designed to work with ACL to make it compatible with previously-incompatible mods.
Listed names indicate the other mod the compatibility patch is intended to provide compatibility for.

This mod works alone and may be placed anywhere.

If you're having troubles with getting the mod to work correctly with other mods, try placing this mod lower in (towards the bottom of) your mod playset.

This mod does not rely on any DLC features, so you should not need any DLCs.

• YES, you may include this mod in any modpacks/collections/whatever.
• YES, you may use this mod as a base to create your own. Credit and a link back here would be very much appreciated!
