Doesn't always work and anyone green to FL won't get shot at.
Example would be a priate base with FL IFF.....pirate player ship beign shot at by FL ID/IFF merc....base won't shoot at the merc because it has same IFF as the base. However, if you remove IFF and set the defensemode then only those on the access list don't get shot at.
This was noticed on day 8 of .86 release and a defmode 3 was asked for that shoots at anyone not on the green/white/access list.
Right now the only way to get that is to remove IFF completely.
Please fix the defense modes before popping bases for lack of IFF. Right now ti's the only way to set a proper defense for a base due to current game mechanics. For genuine RP reasons a group that builds a base may not went everyone friendly to that ID to be hanging around that particular base. This was very true of the LSF/BIS/BDM types when thier bases were RP'd as restricted and were used to build the cloaks and other toys that bases can prooduce.
