Title: Editing Mission.sqm
Post by: Wolf on 14 Jun 2003, 21:49:34

Alright, here's the problem, I have some armed Police officers, and I want them to fire, and be fired at, by some other civilians. So instead of using Gimbals tossers for this, I thought I would edit the .sqm file, like I've heard some many times before. So I changed the civilians I wanted to East, and changed the Police officers to Resistance, or in the Sqm, Guer, or something like that. And in the mission editor set the resistance friendly to no one. Let the mission play out, but they wouldn't fire at each other.
So I switched my character as a res soldier, in the mission editor, the Civs showed as enemy, but when I shot them, and ended the game, they counted as civilian, and I had -1300 score. Does editing the sqm not work in 1.91? Or is there something more to this that I'm missing.
Thank you.

u can hack the mission.sqm...

problem with it is that u can only change to GUER not EAST or WEST.... it may appear in the editor as enemies... but AI wont accept EAST or WEST civies... dont ask me why... its been like that since pre resistance and will remain so i suspect

try LCD's method - never tried it myself... but worth a shot  ;D
