Wish there was a mod to make soldiers non-aggressive unless attacked first.
I wish there was a mod to make all the soldiers in the game not be aggressive towards you or to scientists unless they are attacked first.

I always thought the "plot twist" of having US military soldiers killing the scientists was utterly preposterous and I wonder if a fairly simple mod could be made to simply remove this behavior from the game without really changing it in any other way. Yeah some so-called "plot" points might not make sense but the game would be more believable overall.

Or they could all speak Russian and I could more easily pretend they were Russian invaders somehow. They act as incompetent and unprofessional as the Russians so that'd make some sense too.

You can by editing the maps using the hammer editor. Or you can use console commands though they won't attack even if you attack em first, unless again you use console commands.
You'll also have to type these in when you change levels.

Type sv_cheats 1 into console commands:

ent_create ai_relationship targetname newrel subject npc_human_grunt target !player disposition 3 reciprocal 3 startactive 3

ent_create ai_relationship targetname newrel subject npc_human_medic target !player disposition 3 reciprocal 3 startactive 3

ent_create ai_relationship targetname newrel subject npc_human_commander target !player disposition 3 reciprocal 3 startactive 3

ent_create ai_relationship targetname newrel subject npc_human_grenadier target !player disposition 3 reciprocal 3 startactive 3

To stop them from attacking the scientists and guards, just replace !player with:

npc_human_scientist
npc_human_scientist_female
npc_human_security

Oh cool! That's a great idea! I'll do this after I finish my current play through! :engineercat:
