Description

Automatically shunts npcs into valve's squads.

Extra features!

Npcs will chatter when they do any custom behaviour!
When a squad starts losing members, they'll cry for backup!
Entire system is based on disposition, so custom factions wont break it!
Idle squads will report in and do their very best to reinforce their buddies.
If there's no threat, squads wander as a group!
Everyone follows their squad leader.
Leaders will intentionally spread out, avoid other squads!
Removed grigori support.
Half-decent duplicator support!
Leaders who have lost all their buddies will throw in the towel and join someone else.
A "Dynsquad Goal" ( think capture point! )

All this together means that npcs will break up into little squads, constantly moving around the map!

Some Caveats

Works best with npcs that can join valve squads ( basically all default npcs, combine, rebels, zombies, antlions )
This addon doesn't directly affect actively fighting npcs ( no extra tactics in close quarters! )

Console commands

npc_dynsquads_enabled ( enables/disables the addon ) npc_dynsquads_yapping ( enables/disables the extra idle npc voicelines ) npc_dynsquads_doassaults ( idle npc reinforcing ) npc_dynsquads_dowandering ( idle npc wandering ) npc_dynsquads_developer ( enables/disables debug info ) npc_dynsquads_ignoremapcreated ( makes it ignore map npcs, stops it breaking some maps )

Stop complaining if a couple of NPCs aren't supported.
