Find Idle Units Mod

paperpancake#9820

Have you ever had a unit standing still for half of a battle because you didn't know they needed orders? No more! This mod gives you two ways to find idle units:

• Press a hotkey of your choice to highlight the unit cards of all idle units and ping them on the map. This will stay on until you press the hotkey again, so if a unit becomes idle, it will be highlighted and pinged.
• Press a hotkey to select and pan the camera to the next idle unit.

If you try it out, I'd love to hear what you think.

Sounds intriguing and useful. Probably my greatest flaw in playing this game is leaving units idle. I'll have to check it out. Nicely done.

This just got a hotfix for the mod crashing if a unit died while idle (which mostly affects undead, unbreakable units, and high-leadership units, since most others will start running before being completely wiped out).

Updated! New changes:

1. Hotkeys now work even if the unit cards are hidden.
2. This mod now uses the built-in camera pan, so it's the same as double-clicking on the unit card.
3. Better multiplayer support:
   • When players reinforce each other's armies, it allows both player's armies to benefit from the mod.
   • Pan to next idle unit now moves the camera correctly in multiplayer.
