Also see mod thread on NMA and its wiki page. Notes for modders are here.

Instalation

  • Download the latest release, unzip into Fallout 2 directory. Overwriting ddraw.dll is not necessary.

Usage

Hotkeys are configured in mods/party_orders.ini. Default keys:

  • F: Heal
  • G: Loot
  • H: Holster weapon
  • R: Regroup
  • X: Scatter
  • T: (Dude) Pick up items or auto-loot bodies
  • 0: Switch behavior of T key between pick up items and loot bodies
  • Ctrl-B: Switch ammo type (AP/JHP)
  • D: Allow/forbid party members to use burst attacks. Forbidden by default.
    • When allowed, it doesn't mean that they will always use burst, only that they may.
    • However, if equipped with a weapon which has only burst mode, such as a minigun, this order will be ignored by this particular party member.
