Hi everyone...

My boyfriend bought this game through Steam, and we've been trying really hard to play this game together in skirmish (with the cool split-screen option). But we don't want to have any enemy spawning... we just want to play against each other at our own pace. We've seen videos on YouTube and such of people doing that, so we figure it must be possible, but we're not sure how.

We found a forum post called FAQ No Enemy Spawn but it's pointing us to files (missions.rte\Skirmish Activities.ini) that aren't there. I guess that things have been moved around in a recent update, so we've been trying to find equivalent ini files, but we're having no luck.

My boyfriend tried the Cortex Command Mod Manager / Activities Manager and we didn't have any luck with that either.

Is there an ini file (or something else) we can fiddle with to stop the AI from spawning in a skirmish please?

Thanks for any help.

Just don't select a team for the CPU team.

Thanks for the reply. We've tried making sure that CPU isn't on a team (and we just triple-checked it then to be 100% sure), but rockets still come down and deposit armed villains to hinder and attack us.

How odd, that must've changed in the latest update, which also removed the Brain vs Brain option which did what you want.

Thank you for reporting this Soda. It is embarrassing but it seems that I broke Skirmish Defense somehow.

I have attached updated versions of the Skirmish Defense activity. If you copy it to [TheCortexCommandDirectory]/Base.rte/Activities/ this issue should go away.

Thank you for taking the time to make and upload the fix for us, Abdul. We loaded it up, and it seems to have stopped the AI enemies from spawning.
