Fallout 2 mod Troubles controlling companions

[MongoLloyd]

Hi!

I just recently started playing Fallout 2 and I love it! I'm having a bit of a problem though, and that is my companions' itchy trigger-finger. As soon as I let them have burst weapons, they just kill eachother by totally disregarding other companions' position.

So I tried to solve this! I'm currently using the Sfall-mod and the Restoration project and I tried going into the ddraw.ini-file and set the value as this:

;Set to one to directly control party members in combat
ControlPartyMembers=1

But it still doesn't work for some reason. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for taking your time reading this!

It might not work because you have already started a game and I think you have to do that before you have a game started. I could be wrong, though. Also, you can try to change their settings to be absolutely sure not to hit me, or whatever it is called and that should help.

Also, if your NPCs don't have that setting you can copy and paste this file to the DATA/data folder. I set it to where all NPCs have all of the settings.

ControlPartyMembers is obsoleted. killap just forgot to remove it from ddraw.ini in RP.
For newer version of sfall, the correct option is ControlCombat. You can check this thread for more info: http://www.nma-fallout.com/threads/sfall-party-member-control-no-longer-working.201150/#post-4001913

Thank you very much for this response! I thought I had scoured the forum but I guess I wasn't thorough enough^^;
