A way to choose which side's units to swap to in battle calc screen
-
On the battle calc screen, when you click "swap sides", it always swaps the attacker with one specific defender, the one who owns the province (not sure what it does for sea provinces). When there are multiple defenders, I'd like to be able to choose which one gets moved to the attacker spot.
I have a province which Italy is the current Owner, and the stack has 5 Italian units, and about 90 german ones. I want to see what the offensive power is of the german stack. But swap sides always puts the Italian one on the attacker side.
Optimal fix is unclear, as there's value in needing fewer clicks to get a task done. Some possibles:
- Have it so if there are multiple defenders then the Swap button asks you which one to swap
- When there are multiple defenders a scroll menu is present somewhere near the swap button that selects which one will be swapped. It defaults to the same one as now.
- A separate button for Swap other defenders, that asks you which one to swap.
Obviously not a high priority request; just another in the list of nice features to have.

@zlefin you can actually already do that discovered it recently by accident. the primary defenders (territory owner) will already be selected in the dropdown team menu. if you select one of the other teams instead of the normal behavior (clearing the units) it will swap that team to primary you can then hit swap sides to get the attack setup.
