Rebels, possible to script them?

[Divinus Arma]

There are further scripting possibilities being discussed. One example would be as follows: You are warned not to attack a certain free city, lest it means war. You decide to attack anyway. Scripting then produces a spawn army of the faction which war was threatened. AI cheating? Maybe. Removing some of the 'sandbox' fell? Perhaps.

Just remember that scripting is what is increasing the load times. More scripting = longer load times. There is a point when the load times become unbearable.

I am glad you enjoy EB Dayve. Thank you for the kind comments.

There is a difference between "rebels" and "brigands." Brigands appear randomly across the map - rebels appear when a settlement's loyalty drops below a certain point. We can't do anything about brigands in this version, only when we move to a higher version, or perhaps BI.

Actually, although this will require further examination, it seems that loading our megabytes of script files only takes a few seconds. Other things appear to be the culprits. I shaved almost two minutes off my initial load time by blanking campaign_descriptions.txt.

Campaign descriptions you say... Well they are very long even though they make an interesting read... Can i have your file that you've removed them in then i can replace it with mine? I'll see if it speeds up my loading times.
