Possible Bandit Mod

[Lord Barrett]

I posted this before, but it was in the wrong section. So here I am now.

I love the fact that bandits can now gang up on you, though I would do things a little different to make things a wee bit more interesting. So, this is a two-pronged question with the first being rather simple and the second more complex:

1. Can the engine and coding handle a battle between say, 3 or more "teams" in field battles rather than just 2? I would assume that it would require a little bit of coding, but should be possible, because it's already done in tournaments.

2. Would it be possible to add a "fuzzy factor" to bandit behavior? Allow me to explain. I think that since bandits are opportunistic, they should also attack other bandits if the situation would be favorable for them. This would be especially interesting if 2 or more bandit groups fought you at the same time. They would most likely work together to take you down, but there would also be a chance they would attack each other during the battle, competing for the loot off your dead body, no doubt.

Anyone know if this is possible? Has anyone done it? Does this sound like a good idea or interesting to anyone?

I have done a fair bit of implementing others' mods on this game and others, but I've never made a mod myself, so I'm clueless as to how to go about this. Anyone care to help walk me through the process if it's possible? Either here or by PM, whatever is convenient.

Thanks in advance, folks.

Possible, pretty simple (spawn parties as different teams and assign teams as mutual enemies when needed), dunno if really interesting. While it brings something new into world map to have bandits kill each other from time to time, it would bring mostly nothing to your own gameplay, or even detract from it (less bandits to kick).

Battling over your dead body is irrelevant - dead body does not care who gets the loot

don`t know really

perhaps it will be interesting if bandit groups can merge and perhaps make something like faction

for example 3 bandits groups meet in point a and they decided make one group
then they come and take an city (or castle ) and there is an new faction (or something like this)
