Command Ops 2 Mods [patched] -

The primary hubs:

1. The Matrix Games Command Ops 2 Forum: Specifically the "Mods and Scenarios" sub-forum. This is the official source. You will find stickied threads for the Community Estab Pack.

The "Must-Have" Utility Mods

Not all mods change the data. Some change the interface.

The Auto-Save Manager: CO2 can run for 12 hours straight in a Grand Campaign. If it crashes, you cry. This mod script increases autosave frequency from "every hour" to "every 10 minutes." The Real-Time Orders Delay Display: This small Lua script mod adds a text overlay showing exactly how many seconds it will take for your battalion commander to respond. It turns an invisible abstraction into a visible threat.
