Auto fire

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

Ok well I have a map called nature's wraith and it hoard's you with a ton of animal's that attack your infantry. I was wondering if it's possible to make my unit's auto fire on civilian's like they do on enemy unit's that get to close.

yes there should be, check the rules entries for all the civilians, they will have lines like

Code:

LegalTarget=no/false

You should change it to yes/true and units will fire at them.

Monkey's and I beleive all animal's/civilian unit's have that. And that code is just to make it targetable, not auto fired on.

ok, then also look for other lines of code such as

Code:

Insignificant=yes

and make it no. If you can hold on one sec and i'll dig out my rules.ini and take a look through.

They wont auto target cause house is MultiplayPassive=yes
If you remove that tag, you will end up crashing the game sooner or later.

what would happen if you changed all the rules.ini codes from

Code:

Civilian=yes

to

Code:

civilian=no

and changed the category's from

Code:

category=civilian

to

Code:

category=soldier

not only that... I remember, in TS (1.0 Cool

, that when I changed the category AirPower to AirTransport in an aircraft with passengers, it worked perfectly as air transport. So, one of the functions of it might be the generals stuff, but there might be other stuff related to it...

Seems logical it's just let the GAME know what kind of unit it is and thus the ai generals knew it too.
