I'm tired of shooting civilians being the only way to deal with them when you run out of ties. I'm tired of them running out into firefights and dying.
Those things are still going to happen sometimes no matter what, but this mod might help. I requested it like a year ago because I was worse at Lua back then but nobody made it so ¯\(ツ)/¯
This mod will lock matchmaking such that you can only play with others who also have "Save The Civilians".
This mod has the following effects:
- Civilians are saved from fatal damage by nearby medics, regardless of the medic's healing cooldowns. Saving civilians also does not incur the medic's healing cooldown.
- Nearby sentries will keep fully intimidated civilians on the floor, preventing them from getting up. Just like in No Mercy!
- Sentries with AP Ammo will shoot harmless "rubber bullets" at nearby civilians, forcing them to lie on the floor.
- Firing rubber bullets at civilians will not consume any sentry ammo.
- Sentries will only target civilians who are not already lying on the ground.
- The sentry must be in AP Ammo mode, or else they will not fire at civilians.
- This firing noise will alert nearby guards and civilians, so it is strongly recommended to use normal ammo mode if you want to keep a group of intimidated civilians on the floor, without alerting enemies or civilians in surrounding areas.
Planned Features:
-
Some kind of visual indicator for civilians who are safely within the intimidation aura of the sentry? I might leave it without a visual indicator for balance.
-
Preventing the "Graze" skill's effect from killing civilians? I'm really quite sick of this
Known Issues:
None
Demo: (Save The Civilians v0.93)
