Larger Roster

@foxtrot,
You can have 82 heros even if it is said here max is 70 ?
I asked you this bacause I hesitate between this mod and other rosters which allows 99 heros

Note: for who do not see their max roster increase, move the priority of the mod higher.
I personally put it first and had no problems.
Hope this helps!

I don't know why people say it doesn't work, it works for me and has expanded my roster to a grand total of 82 (eighty two!!) heroes!
Maybe y'all are using some sort of stagecoach replacer or something that conflicts with this mod, but the mod still works as of 1/5/2024

DOES NOT WORK

Broken and makes all incoming heroes under level 2.

BROKEN

It worked to expand my roster, but I ran into the issue many have had with only level 2 and below heroes appearing in the Stagecoach. Scroll down to Zanameth's first Jan 24th post for a fix to this! I followed their instructions and then 3-4 level heroes started appearing again!

You need to copy/paste the last two paragraphs they wrote into the indicated .json file, and add that comma to the end of like 48 like they instruct. Worked like a charm for me! But you may want to copy your .json file to save just in case something goes wrong. I forgot the comma at first and when booting up the game got an error message, but it didn't break anything. Just had to go back and fix my edits.

Thanks Zanameth!

Follow-up from previous post : You also need to edit the modfiles.txt at the root of the mod folder:

Line 1 : You need to replace the number at the end by the file size of the "modes\radiant\campaign\town\buildings\stage_coach\stage_coach.building.json" file.

To get the file size, you can right-click that file and select "Properties" to view the size.
The number you need to take is the one in parenthesis :

Example :
Size : 3,24 KB (3.320 bytes)

So here the number you need is 3320.
Do NOT take the number on the "Size on disk" line.

Restart your game, and hopefully it's good now.

I found an issue when you play in Radiant mode, for those who want the fix :
Edit the file :

D:\Steam\SteamApps\workshop\content\262060\903716519\modes\radiant\campaign\town\buildings\stage_coach\stage_coach.building.json

Line 48, add a missing comma "," (without the quotes) at the end of the line, then save the file.
Hopefully this should work. I'm still in the process of testing it in my game.

Also of note : the block at lines 49/50 is not identical to the Vanilla game (and it should be, since the mod isn't supposed to touch this part).
If you want the original code for this part, replace lines 49 and 50 by this :

Line 49 :
{ "level" : 4, "chance" : 0.0625, "number_of_extra_positive_quirks" : 2, "number_of_extra_negative_quirks" : 2, "number_of_extra_combat_skills" : 2, "number_of_extra_camping_skills": 2, "guaranteed_previous_raid_dead_hero_levels" : [5,6],

Line 50 :
"upgrade_tree_id" : "stage_coach.upgraded_recruits", "upgrade_requirement_code" : "d" }

doesn't work on my new save, i've already upgraded 90% of the stage coach
