Bout bases shooting npc stuff... its getting intense

[Cellulanus]

It's a side effect of FLs rep system, basically NPC behaviour operates along very simple lines, NPC factions are either allied, neutral or hostile.

Lets say that faction A is allied to faction B and neutral to C, if A encounters B and C fighting A will automaticaly come to the aid of B, and it also applies to players, this allows NPCs to attack factions that they normaly wouldn't. It is actually quite a clever system and adds a bit of a third dimension to the factions and give additional perks to being allied with certain factions as they will try to help you.


That little thing right there is what causes these glitches, to fix it once simply must make all NPCs allied or hostile for each other (not neutral, do that and player will be able to get Military and police NPCs fighting each other), but this brings about a host of other glitches, such as Junkers being scanned by police having contraband, and the BS patrol sitting right next to them not doing a thing, you also loose that nice third dimension.
