Gentlemen, I'm interested if anyone knows how to make fog of war on the entire map?
To clarify: player units can still see enemy troops but the fog of war effect is present. Also if it's done via script what command is for turning it on and what command is for turning it off.
Thanks in advance,

function DebugView()
Password( "www.dtf.ru" );
ChangeWarFog(2); -- Noche (Night)
SwitchWeather(0) -- La climatologia del mapa es buena (Map's weather is "good")
SwitchWeatherAutomatic(0) -- Desactiva cambio automaticos de clima (Automatic weather changes disabled).
God(0, 1);
Suicide();
end;
At least, those lines are essential for that. If it doesn't work, place the rest.

0 = player
1 = AI
2 = neutral (normally, if you haven't created more parties)

Ofc, that's understandable. Though even if you have more parties setting it to 2 still achieves the same effect (i guess if there are no units from party two on the map). |

Sorry for off-topic, but is there any way to set a friendly party with fights against the enemy? |

Kevin as far as i know there is no way for ground forces. Airforce can be assigned. In fact you can place player 2, 3, 4, 5 etc units on map but they can't be seen when you start the map. Only thing that comes to my mind is to use change player command (i haven't tried that), so it might be possible by using it.

There are several maps that use "a friendly party who is fighting the AI", for example the 22th June map in Motherland calls or the 2nd Map in the Strafbat-mod. I am not a pro in these things and actually don't know how it is working but maybe taking a look on one of these maps will help  |

Hi Kevin,
Here is a link to the Shtrafbat mod. The 2nd Mission is an example for "neutral" troops supporting the player. There are 2 tanks supporting the player by just rolling with his infantry but the player cant control them himself (quite a cool idea if you ask me  ; the 3rd player that was supporting you was one of the features is really liked in BK 2 and I really miss in BK 1). In GZM 7.77 is also one mission that is in the custom missions where your vehicles are out of fuel at some point. They get neutral as well, but they still fight the enemy. This feature is included in several GZM missions, in case you have the 7.77 version for GZM .
Shtrafbat download
Just unpak into your mods folder.
greetings, Stanenberg |

Thanks Stanenberg. I'll try it out as soon as possible. Is it possible for you to upload a WIP of those friendly tanks? Do they fire against the enemy? |

I am noobish again...What is a "WIP"?? These tanks do indeed fire at the enemy. They are no "special units". Its all just done by party settings...but I still haven't understood how... |

WIP equals, more or less, to what we call a "screenshot". It's a supa' cool word for that. I was asking you for a picture of those tanks and, if possible, the map ID or name. OK, if they fire at the enemy we are following the right path. |
