More NPC players?

[thorhunter]

I heard there is a way to somehow have more than 12 players available as long as they arent playable. For example, I'd want to make a map which contains 10 players and 6 NPCs, is that anyhow possible? Anyone is able to help me?

Not that i know of :S Though you might be able to have like 14, and use the Neutral Hostile, and Neutral Passive players :S Not sure though

well there are neutral hostile, neutral passive, neutral extra and neutral victim (or so??). you can use all of them as computer players.

 

[uberfoop]

Neutral extra is the other.

 

[Gtam]

Well Nuetral passive, hostile, special is all Computers anyway

neutral extra is used as the owner of items dropped when a unit dies. you cannot place units of neutral extra with the brushlist but you can create them for player 1 red for example and create a trigger which changes the owner to neutral extra at map initialization. it works!

 

[thorhunter]

Does that mean player unallied to 'neutral extra' will attack items?

 

[Accname]

no.
