Isla Duala

[AnimalMother92 10]

Yeah I agree with that sentiment as well, don't rush! Take your time to make 1.6 as superb as you need to

[Devil Dogs SF 13]

Will the game know to place just the Duala civies when placing the Ambient Civilian module on Isla Duala or will it still place Eastern Europe civies as well?

[icebreakr 3159]

Well, I've defined new faction spawn points but it seems Alice just love placing "CIV" faction at the same time. So basically we get all kinds of folks wandering around Duala now :) Since we don't have African women made it is kinda nice to see a jogger or secretary, but kinda sucks when a guy in a wooly winter hat walks by - just consider them "special" for now ;)

[dimitri_harkov 10]

But you know that it is possible to restrict the spawned civilians to the exact classes you want?

Link to the relevant WIKI page HERE.

Most important part is:

civilianRarity = <array>; - Changing civilian rarity numbers (e.g. to have villagers spawned in cities, or to disable spawning of given class completely with unusual number like 10). Default rarity numbers are set in config under rarityUrban value (in range from 0/village to 1/city) 
Example: BIS_alice_mainscope setvariable ["vehicleRarity",["Citizen1",10,"Worker2",0.8]]; 
Default value: [] 

Cheers,

D.

I believe that is important for mission makers and not the island config itself?

[dimitri_harkov 10]

Yes, of course.

But I guess mission makers would be glad to have an example script to have african civilians only for their missions.

[bushlurker 46]

Another possible "meantime fix" would be a small replacement config file that simply replaces every default civ type with one or the other of the Duala citizenry... that way you'd only get Duala civs... the downside being that you'd get Duala civs on every island while that config is loaded... Not a big deal if you're only intending to play Duala missions that session...

I guess you could even extend the idea even further and include RC entries for basic east and west units too - using the Afrenian and Molatian units, which would give the added bonus of those units being used in all Duala missions you play, regardless of whether the mission writer used them or not...

I'll release new Duala soon. Main features of v1.6:

- added civilians (alice module enabled or placable via in-game editor)

- added armed rebels (they call themselves MOlatian Fan

Organization - MOFOs)

- added angry protestors armed with stones and smoke bomb

- editor groups for rebels and civilians

- added T-55 tank for Molatian Army

- both armies included in the pack (Afrenian v1.1 + new Molatian v1.2)

- clutter fix & compatibility with Panthera 2.6 or higher

[eggbeast 3684]

the desert coloured BMD's are perfect for this map, as are the chenowth buggies and the RE landrovers, the camo F4 and Mi28... they all work so well in it.

I'll be making a Molatian/Afrenian Evolution with all these added mods as soon as it's released...

mwhuhahahaha, fun fun fun....... let's lock and load....

[icebreakr 3159]

Everything's been ready for release yesterday but we found a nasty bug with T-55. If you "Get Out/Jump Out" from commander position you get damaged or even killed on 2nd attempt. So release of 1.6 is postponed until I fix this bug. Size of addon will be at 240 megs (7zipped).

^ loved that movie. :D

[Halochief89 0]

Can't wait for the next update, your creating such an atmosphere with this island, it gives me the nostalgia of Tonal or even Delta Force Black Hawk Down. Now I need a multiplayer group to play with, kinda boring running around in the editor all day.
