Hello to all.

I made this mod tweaking around the Construction tool, liked it and decided to share.

DESCRIPTION:
This mod add Survivors to the desert, these characters are recruitable (mainly the reason why i made them), and will roam and flee danger.

The base mod additions are:
-Survivors faction.
-4 diferent parties of survivors Small, Medium, Large and Huge the first one being the most common and the last one the most rare.
-Special dialog just for survivors.
Extra mod additions:
-More and biger NPC parties to fit the fact that you will be recruiting more.
-Tweaked combat to fit the larger battles, more damage faster atack animation.

obs: When recruiting my wish was that there was no cost but i couldnt find a way to remove the 700g cost from recruiting, if anyone finds a way let me know.

Other Goals:
I have a lot of hope for this game so i intend to keep working on what i can and enjoy it more and more, so i had some megalomaniac ideas that may come to life, such as overhauling the dialogs, adding more factions to fit a harsh world and adjust factions and parties equipment to make them more even.

Tips:
This mod will probably overide any other mods that change factions, spawning, dialog and combat, to fix this simply add my modifications thru the construction tool to your favorite mod file (".mod").

Thats it thanks and give feedback please xD

I tried out your mod and it was nice to see more wanderers, but your mod caused (or at least I think it was) to crash more frequently and caused my characters to freeze. Also the survivors does not stop walking when talked to so that caused some issues with recruiting.

Ok im gonna check on it, but i think i cant make a character stop to talk to you, unless his AI is set to be still at a predetermined position, but again i'll check on it, as for the crashes i think its because the game isnt so stable yet, so when i add more characters and increse party size it increases the crashing, and for the character freezes i haven't experienced those so far, if u can tell me what where u doing when it hapened or if u noticed it hapenes around a specific place i can try to recreate the issue on my end i fix it, well i think i'll tweak around the construction kit a litlle bit to try to optimize the mod, and thanks for the feed back.


By the way to recruit moving targets so far what i did was to quickly recruit the Survivor Leader so the other will stop (they are set to follow leader) and then u can recruit calmly.

you could also simply click on the 'space key' to pause the game and take your time with that

next to the speed buttons the 0 button also pauses the game
