Post Ronin Diversity Patch - need help
In an attempt to bring some diversity to the currently all Caucasian Ronin army, I've run into some trouble. Attached is as far as I could get with my patch - I'm having problems adding a 7th Ronin actor.

See Ronin just needs to auto choose from a set of base actor body sprites then a random mixture of attachables, weaponry, and armor.

I went into the script and copied an addactor file and refitted it to apply to mine. I did the same with an AddEffect file to include the head. Still doesn't work.

this. why hasnt this happened yet? then you can get dissapointed when you get one of the guys you dont like :P you could even still have the current guys as "heroes" or whatever, but it would be so much neater and cooler having random ronin.

Yes yes that'd be very cool, but how do I do this?

EDIT: I'm actually not so sure about what Grif said. It depends on how fleshed out the Ronin faction will get for us. See, at first I thought that the different Ronin actors were different clone lines. They each have their own name and even different stats. The wiki, on the other hand, clearly states

A collection of "rebels". They use antique weapons, and recruit civilians, prisoners, and the poor. Effectively, cannon fodder. [/quote]

So yeah, if this is actually true, then you're right, and Ronin actors should be random. But then why are they set up to be totally different?

It's funny you should say that as I was planning to suggest this to the team when we get the Lua functions to make it possible.

Because it says they are UNIQUE. If there just random masses of the same few parts, they will not be unique. the goal is to only have one of each, ever. it basically means we only need to give them all gloves, and then a mountain of heads and names, and never use the same one twice. thats my opinion anyway.

It was actually a subtle hint to bring things back on topic. There should be some kinda forum rule about that that mods would like, uphold and stuff.

Oh wait.
