Make civ's baddies

[Mr Sarkey 0]

Whats the easiest way to create a civlian militia, so US troops will engage them? I've got civs shooting the US using doTarget, doFire, but I cant work out how to make the US shoot back.

I could tell them all to doTarget, doFire, is there a way to apply this to a whole squad?

Here

Try this command SuperShooter,Should be able to define Civilian's as East(OPFOR).

This should do it?

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">CIVIALIAN SetFriend [WEST,0]; WEST SetFriend [CIVIALIAN,0]

Also you have to make sure you have at least a single civilian and west unit when you execute the above line.

UNN, would createCenter accomplish the same without having to place a unit? I saw you commented in the Wiki, maybe you know. (Cannot test, @work).

Yup createCenter would prevent the need of east units.

A different solution can be foud here- towards the bottom of the page.

It involves placing an eastern unit (high rank) and then grouping the civilian and the eastern unit.

Cheetah's solution above is the easiest. Sometimes "setfriend" causes mind -boggling lag or crashes, at least for me.

Ah, the "different" solution worked.

Yeah, a typo, bad spelling of civilian.

Createcentre on it's own, won't set the allegiance of a side. It was assumed those units are already present, seen as it wasn't stated otherwise?

Never seen that. It should only be called once, so if it lags for you, then perhaps you should log it on the Bug Tracker?

For me Setfriend works fine if you want to set any civilian as hostile to a specific side. If it's a specific group of civilians. Then use the old OFP method.

Edit: Didn't notice the other reply, ty Chee. However, now we have two contrasting statements about createCenter. NM, I'll check it out @home.

Can't speak about that.

But CreateCentre will initialise, if it isn't already present on the map, the specified side. But AFAIK any side created with the CreateCentre, will be neutral (no allegiance to anyone), unless told otherwise with the SetFriend command.

But all this is kind of off topic?
