Sock Monkey Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Name: Sock Suggestion: Make it so hostile NPCs automatically do not attack CIS event jobs, and instead friendly NPCs can target them Implementation: I think you'd just adjust the code for the jobs abit Lore: CIS droids typically wouldn't attack allied droids Workshop content if applicable: ---- (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development") If you are asking to add or change a job, fill out the following Add or Change: Change Job: All CIS Event jobs Model: NA Weapons:NA Other: So to kind of word this out a bit more, if possible it would be a lot easier for gamemasters and events to flow more if all CIS event jobs were automatically 'notargeted' by enemy NPCs and instead they could get targeted by friendly NPCS. scenario: Droids are fighting clones in MHB, droid NPCs are spawned in and there also happen to be friendly clone NPCs spawned in to help out in the defense, when a player Event job droid comes in all of the droids continue their fight against the clones instead of targeting the droid player, and if the droid player gets too close to the clone NPCs they fire at him/her instead. :) Link to comment
Hero Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 I mean i have no clue if any of the dev team could do this (not saying y’all aren’t talented just don’t know if it’s possible) but if it is +1 1 Report Link to comment
Chambers Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 As I understand it it's because of the base HL2 code that limits the NPCs the way they are now, Every player is treated as friendly to one faction and hostile to another. Not entirely sure if its possible to code it in a different way through and add on but that's a question for @Zim Link to comment
Nade Jones Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 I don't think this would be possible, Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't see any part of the Job code which could be modified to set factions regarding NPCs 1 Report Former: Commander Cody (x2), ATK Regimental Commander, SOBDE Regimental Commander, 212th XO, Omega Squad Lead Niner, Foxtrot XO, General Kenobi, HA (x2) TRM, GMM, RUS MP Commander Link to comment

Daytona211 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 This is possible. May not be worth it to develop when Event jobs can just use the tool gun and notarget.

Old Spartan Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 +1 If its possible and not a ton of work go for it. But if its a ton of work just let the event jobs no target themselves. Link to comment
Scribbles Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 It isnt possible to spawn no-targetted, it would heavily need development Link to comment
OneNiner6719 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 +1, but maybe for later development. Link to comment
Qal Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 TBH I think it would be nice if VIPs could only use the Notarget tool on a tool gun, (which would need spawned in for them to use it). I like this idea but i dont think its possible. Neutral. (If it is Possible it would take a ton of development) Link to comment
Firat/Abi Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Idea 1: Let event jobs spawn with a tool gun so they can no target themself. Idea 2: Make a shortcut CMD for no target and make it so it gets used automatically when you spawn in as an event job Link to comment

This will never happen because after events a lot of whitelists stay and so a toolgun could be used by non staff and you can do a lot of bad stuff with a toolgun Link to comment

Fours Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I mean to be honest a lot of game masters used to ask permission from GMO+ back in the day if we could just spawn a tool gun for an event job so they could no target themselves if really needed for rp purposes as apposed to just shoot em ups. Once you die or respawn you lose the no target anyways unless you re-enable it. It's probably changed since then though, or GMs just don't know or ask about it. Link to comment
Esitt Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 The only way Event Jobs can notarget is when Tool Guns are given but you need HA+ permission for that so, yeah. Its a good idea but wouldn't work out. DENIED //Locked //Moved to Server Suggestions - Denied Link to comment
