RTS Map Command Recruits is an addon for the Recruits mod that gives you Total War-style map control over recruit armies: one map icon can represent a full group, with click-to-move, waypoints, formation control, combat commands, and strategic fire control.

## Group-Based Map Commanding:

  • Each recruit group appears as a single tactical icon on the world map.
  • Split group handling: if members are far apart, they can appear as separate controllable sub-groups.
  • Movement arrow/path rendering from current position through queued waypoints.
  • Smart Group Visuals
  • Uses each group’s configured image/icon (from group setup).
  • Relation outline colors:
  • > - Your groups: Green
  • > - Allies: Blue
  • > - Neutral: Gray
  • > - Enemies: Red
  • Icon size scales better with map zoom.

## Multiplayer-Safe Order System:

  • Server-authoritative orders and validations.
  • Selection/order stability improvements for moving/splitting groups.
  • Stuck orders/arrows auto-cleaned to prevent command-lock states.

## How To Use (Map Controls):

### Selection & Basic Orders - Left Click group icon: select group - C: clear selected group - Right Click map: move selected group - Shift + Right Click: queue waypoints

### Attack & Fire Commands - Ctrl + Right Click on enemy group icon: attack that group - Ctrl + J + Right Click on map: strategic fire at that position - Ctrl + K: hold/cancel strategic fire for selected group

### Behavior / Stance (selected group) - 1 = Passive - 2 = Neutral - 3 = Aggressive - 4 = Hold Fire - 5 = Fire At Will - 6 = Wander movement mode

### Formation Controls - Ctrl + Tab: cycle formation - Ctrl + Shift + Tab: cycle formation backward

### Numpad direct formation binds: - KP1 Circle - KP2 H Circle - KP3 Square - KP4 H Square - KP5 Line - KP6 Triangle - KP7 V Form - KP8 March - KP9 No Formation

### Other UI Controls - Tab / Shift+Tab: cycle selected groups - U: toggle map overlay text

## Visibility & Command Limits - Groups must be in the correct world/dimension and visible per server-side checks. - Commanding can be limited by configurable radius from player. - Visibility/control behavior respects render-distance-style constraints for fairness.

## Configurable Server Settings In the server config: - commandRadiusBlocks – max command distance from player to group anchor - arrivalDistance – waypoint completion distance - continueMarchWhenInCombat – continue marching vs stop-and-fight behavior
