Civilian class

I know little about mod making.


Suggestion. I'd love to see a map where the rest of your team-mates are of a civilian class. (ie no weapons or just knives). Your job would be to keep as many of them alive as possible from an invading enemy. I picture the map to be a townsite on a hill with a church in the middle that could be used to see the enemy approaching from all sides. That's my idea for the day.

...and your first post. welcome. well who'd wanna run around for an hour+ with nothing but a knife? answer that and I'll make it personally. the other problem is coding it. You'd probably have to code it as a whole new game mode, and lastly (not to put you down) well i may be wrong on this but...was there ever a battle where the enemy troops has orders to kill civilians intentially?

You're talking of WWII here... Yes there was, several

A Warsaw Uprising map could have everyone spawn as civilians with maybe a random revolver/crappyrifle, with pickupkits around the map?

(lol) In retrospect my post does seem kind of silly. I was thinking of a single player/coop game idea. Your whole team are civilians and you have to defend them idea. Not sure about what is possible or impossible in mod making. Let me change the question...

Is this mod being made with coop/single player capability in mind? They are never as fun but I think they give mods more longevity.

Bonus reply

As for the bit about civilians being targeted I'd have to check that one out. I'm thinking Rawanda, or the Balkans, maybe Sadam gasing his citizens. Also any invading army has to deal with the home country's army hiding in their own cities.

New quesiton.... will this mod be Mac compatible? Downloadable as a .Zip and not just as a .exe?

Yep^and Yep^

Any chance of introducing a sub-mariner class? A class that could scuba underwater to avoid detection. I saw on one of the Fun-Racing mod maps they had an alligator you could ride underwater, so the technology is out there to mimic. Unique play oportunities put mod's on the map.

you know, i've been meaning to look into some of that. i just started minor coding, so i'll probably finish up Darwin, maybe do a little more work on Moerdijk (:wink:) even though it wont be released till we open up to Holland then start screwin' around with different stuff to see what i can come up with

Those Japanese midget-sybs would be nice to have I could actually model them.

well get to it man. you model it and export it or w.e i'll code it and skin it or maybe adrifter will do it
