INDEPENDENT vs INDEPENDENT ?

[shephart 1]

i know i asked it before in another section, but :

is it possible to make INDEPENDENT vs INDEPENDENT, that means that the factions inside the category INDEPENDENT would fight against each other, i downloaded iranian forces mod, FDF mod, Iraqi forces etc... and they are all in the INDEPENDENT section and i want to make UNO vs Iran vs Iraq vs FDF vs RACS vs FIA vs Armenian Army..... all the faction that are in INDEPENDENT section should fight against each other, methode i tried :

- group RES groups to an OPFOR leader with 0% of presence probability

didnt work.

AFAIK you can only have 3 sides that can fight each other. You can always put on the init line of each group leader:

this addrating -10000

but every group that has this will be enemy to each other, including from the same faction.

Not very sure, but you can try. What your trying to do whatever it is might be a little problematic. And "little" is an understatement.

Did you set in the editor that independent are friend of nobody?

Just tested and it works m8...

Independent are friend to opfor.

One independent group.

Another independent group with a TL (check the rank) blufor with 0% of presence probability.

did you tested it with some more independent groups, more than 2 or 3 ?

The problem is that you want more than 3 sides enemy to each other. You can do it with 3 maximum. Keep one independant faction as it is, and join the other two factions to a blufor leader and an opfor leader. That way you can have 3 factions that come on the INDEPENDANT side to fight each other. But you won't be able to do more than 3!

Oh well...I didn't get the point :D sorry!

CarlosTex is right...I thought you want 2 independent side fighting each others...Well you could have a "deathmatch" game if you use "this addrating -10000" but only for individual unit, no groups...

You can make the Independent shoot their own by using:

resistance setFriend [resistance, 0];

They will not shoot their own group members; only other groups. But 2 Independent groups will engage each other as if they were on different sides.

Was messing with this stuff the other day.... but didn't try this. Great info... thanks for posting.

That works if he does not need to have more than 1 group per faction. Thing is he wants to have several factions enemy to each other. But if he uses this method and puts 2 groups from same faction close to each other they'll still fight.
