I read that the amount of Agents in the game is hardcoded but is it possible to remove certain agents and replace them with a new one?
For example can i remove Witches, and replace them with the equivalent of a Pagan priest type thing? Also can Agents be given multiple abilities? For example could one blend a Priest with an Assassin? Or spy & merchant in one Agent?

You can try tinkering around with descr_characters.txt and give some characters new abilities, like assassination. But it's probably very limited.
I was wondering about doing such a thing but when it comes to the code side of MOD'ing i have no idea. I'm more of an artist... i may just have to delve in...
No, each agent type is hardcoded unfortunately.
To ask what may be a stupid question can the mesh/skins for agents be changed? For example is it possible to make another batch of Agents for a faction that is unique?Quote:

Yes you can create a mesh/skin for agents that is faction unique. You can assign new textures to agents by altering the file descr_model_strat.txt
You will need to use the unpacker tool to extract this file. I suggest reading the readme file that comes with it so you can apply a filter to only extract the file (or filetypes) you want instead of extracting everything (takes a long time and uses up a lot of disk space).
Thanks for the advice. :2thumbsup:Quote:
