Imperial Sardaukar Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Is it possible in a Skirmish game for YOU, the player, to use the color red? Because the computer always takes up the color red and I don't know how to change his color. It's annoying to play as Harkonnen and have to use ORANGE as your color!

Dante Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 The minimum number of computer players is one. All you need to do is start with one which isn't red, change your colour to red, and then add the other computer players, if necessary. If the one computer player is red, which shouldn't happen every time, just go back and enter the skirmish screen again.I'm not entirely sure I've grasped the nature of the problem, since it seems so simple. Is it more complex than I've understood it to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's already been done before, if you ask for it, someone will probably direct you to it or make the modification for you and send it to you.The minimum number of computer players is one. All you need to do is start with one which isn't redYes, the minimum number of computer players is one. Assuming the game hasn't been modified in any way, you can't start an offline skirmish game with an AI that isn't red, since red is the first colour that is automatically selected by the default mandatory one AI player. Therefore you can not remove this AI player to select the red colour for yourself, then add the AI player back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
