Title: Side changeing
Post by: moviemaker100 on 05 Jan 2012, 12:02:05

I just wanted to change the side of an unit.
Ok. I edited the config.cpp and changed the side entry.
Ok. The unit now was in the editor on the other, wished side.
BUT:
Not ok. The unit didn´t attack the "new" enemies as they normally have done.

So the side change must have any more entries to change, to make all game attacking scripts real work.

So: Has anyone any idea, what else I have to change to get an unit "fully" from east to west ?

Thanx!!

Moved :)
Assuming that this is a addon related question since it involves config editing..

Sorry that I have no useful hints for your problem to offer.

there is nothing further in an ofp config.cpp that you need to do other than

side = 0,1,2,3

if the unit is not 'attacking' his experience level setFleeMode may have happened. but, it isn't the config per se

you are also better off deriving a class not altering an existing class, because cfgGroups might affect the outcome.

to derive a class:

class MyNewSoldier: SoldierEB // as an eg
{
   side=3; // make him a civilian
   Displayname="My new civilian";
};
