They should heal on their own.

First of all. Great Mod: Quick question: Is there a way to heal Militia soldiers if they have 1 or more wounds?

@alchimedes, you need cable ties.

How can I capture and arrest enemys?
I can't see any options, as soon as they are on the ground...

@xDj4ng0x : Interface Tweaks has a feature to move militia, so I guess this is the feature incompatible with this mod. If you don't enable it, it should be fine, no ?
xDj4ng0x Jul 16 @ 7:17am 
This is clearly one of the best mods created for this game. I recently got my hands on the Interface Tweaks, and though it mentions its incompatible with this mod, I tried it out to see what could be in the issue. Two things I noticed was the Squad Icons at the top overlap the button that switches between your AIM mercs and the militia squads. Not a big deal. The breaking issue appears to be squad inventory. As soon as you select anything other than the main inventory that shows everything (weapons, ammo, misc, etc) it freezes the game.

I'm likely to poke me head around your mod and that one to see if maybe I can figure out the "why", but was wondering if you had a chance to look into yourself at point and if you'd be willing to do so to find some compatibility between the two?
If I find anything I'll post here about it.

@permanent666 unbelievable mod - I did notice one kinda gamebreaking immersion bug was if you want to use the militia as cannon fodder like me, and bring them with the mercs, it auto wins the map basically. I went to the diamond mine with the mercs and it has them spawn where the enemy spawns and triggers the win.

@GroovyKaysi - did you restart the game after activating the mods?

I've got not interest in managing/micromanaging militia, but I'd love a separate mode with just the sector operations and interrogation options intact.

Also, if you want to join some of the other modders for JA3 in their own discord I can give you an invitation, it is a good place and they are very helpful.
Xeryx Jan 18 @ 8:33am 
@permant666, I have had to pause on your wonderful mod for the moment, I am helping GBO test and troubleshoot bugs ATM. But damn I miss your mod already being able to just move around the Militia makes a world of difference. But I did find something you need to fix. If a militia unit enters a hostile map with the mercs, the game gives the team the defensive positions in the map as if they were defending, and this alone is a huge balance changer to the game.
Xeryx Jan 16 @ 5:35pm 
Ugh I tried to share a link over at the JA3 modprojects, but steam is blocking it.
permanent666  [author] Jan 16 @ 4:17pm 
@Xeryx, I paused modding at the moment but if you tell me which problems you were encountering I can have a look.
Xeryx Jan 16 @ 4:07pm 
Your mod is great but it seems there are some LUA issues going on in the background. Are you planning on modding JA3 anymore?

Ваш мод не работает совместно с модом [RU] JAZZ (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3321938203&searchtext=jazz) . Игра не запускается. Есть возможность сделать их совместимыми?
permanent666  [author] Dec 31, 2024 @ 5:15am 
@Vantom, they heal on their own but it takes time.
Vantom Dec 30, 2024 @ 7:23pm 
This mod is amazing. Thank you so much. I want to know if there is a way to heal your militia?

Well, I'll keep you posted. I've only begun to poke at the under-the-hood editor stuff, and I'm not great at this. But it seems very achievable to add additional presets to the militia units, if I can learn how to use the tools. I'll do some reading, and maybe ask around on the discord when I've got time.

Ultimately though, your mod is excellent, and already working toward the goal of making the militia into minor characters in their own way. Giving them a visual lift feels very deserved to go along with it, so I'm happy to try and figure that out.
permanent666  [author] Nov 2, 2024 @ 11:08am 
Thank you for your feedback. @Parker If you could make it work to give militia visual variety this would be great.
Parker Posey's Mouth Nov 2, 2024 @ 11:00am 
This is great, and it adds a very granular sort of feel to the way the militia work. They're not great, and especially if you choose to have to equip them yourself. I may never auto-battle again, because trying to make these guys work as my only line of defense against counter attacks is challenging, in a fun way.

Are you still developing it? It'd be great if they had the visual variety of that one Ernie Rangers mod, just to give them all that much more flavor. If not, I'm tempted to try and design my own visual variants.

Thank you for this mod! I hope you are still working on it.

Such a great mod. Thanks for sharing it with us!

You can get Intel, ransom money and valuables.

whats the benefit of capturing and interrogating enemies?
8j54jucs Sep 26, 2024 @ 12:35pm 
ok, thanks
permanent666  [author] Sep 26, 2024 @ 11:02am 
@8j54juucs: This has to be a different mod
8j54jucs Sep 26, 2024 @ 8:54am 
I have no heal wound option at SO, does the mode change this part that wound only heal at hospital?
Captain Jack Half-A-Prayer Sep 21, 2024 @ 1:49pm 
Fantastic work. The best JA3 mod yet imo
IvashaMagnus Sep 7, 2024 @ 11:11am 
Maybe I'll disable the mod for now until I figure it all out, thanks for the answer

I noticed that you can create more than 8 militiamen. But on my difficulty level, "commandos" and "hard-boiled" enemies come about 9 and out of 8 militiamen, maybe 1 is lost. But it turns out that you can make more than 8 militiamen and the sector will be invincible.

It's hard to adjust the balance of the game together with all the mods and figure it out so that it works well (or the difficulty is too low or the mods need to be selected better, what can I do?

After the merkam ran away from the sector with the militia through which the caravan with diamonds was passing, this caravan passed the sector without touching the militiamen.

I see that some of the militiamen fight with their fists (without any weapons), but if I'm not mistaken, in auto-battle they behave very effectively (it is advantageous to make auto-battle with unarmed militiamen) as if they are armed to the teeth()
permanent666  [author] Sep 7, 2024 @ 1:26am 
@IvashaMagnus, thank you for your feedback. I will have a look into it but I won't test with controller. You can disable the mod but existing militia squads will stay under player control.
IvashaMagnus Sep 7, 2024 @ 1:21am 
When the militia appears in the sector, it may not be possible to open the "operations" menu on the controller and on the keyboard afterwards - it is simply not active.
If you transfer the squad to the next cell and return it back, the menu earns again

Is it possible to disable this militia mod without threatening to save it, since I'm playing on the Controller (maybe it's just such a problem on it)?

The mod is good. It resembles the previous modifications of ja2.
IvashaMagnus Sep 5, 2024 @ 2:39am 
We need to make it easier. I agree with Murky.
In ja2 1.13, I remember it was possible to "feed" weapons to the militia and indirectly control them by giving general commands if there were "headphones" - I liked that. There was no pile of complicating and cumbersome micromanagement with the pressure of cartridges for the militia (I understood this from the comments, if I understood everything correctly. So far, I have only created a militia and immediately turned on auto control.

There are problems with controlling the game on the strategic map through the Controller. Does the author support the game with the mod on Controller?

Thanks for updating!
permanent666  [author] Jul 11, 2024 @ 11:00am 
Sorry I did not reply earlier. Thank you for your feedback I will continue development of this mod soon and consider your ideas.
Murky Jul 10, 2024 @ 7:53pm 
Great, but I find the micromanagement of militia very cumbersome. They often spawn with no weapons and ammunition, no gear and the supply system that provides seems inefficient. Also it is weird that militia cannot capture a territory. I would rather much straightforward way to supply, ideally auto-supply militia at least with ammo or being able to decided much easily who gets what from some militia dedicated armoury.
TexMcQuade Jul 6, 2024 @ 4:41pm 
Idea for future feature - build defences e.g. place machine gun posts / sandbags / guard towers / walls - you could build defences via Operation, and when combat starts, you could place your Militia on the defences
TexMcQuade Jul 6, 2024 @ 10:45am 
Amazing mod - are you still updating / working on it?
Haruko Jul 3, 2024 @ 1:40pm 
Any chance to add options that boosts the base skills of the militia? i keep raising them to veteran levels but still cant hit anything beyond 5 cells far
[POE // DVG-98] Jun 26, 2024 @ 2:34pm 
@permanent666 - I will test that again. It's possible I made a mistake or missed something. I dont think so though. I appreciate the replly.

BTW -- AWESOME work my friend.

One question though: is there any way you can effect the roles assigned ton trained militia? Just curious.
permanent666  [author] Jun 26, 2024 @ 12:42pm 
@Kaos I am not sure why this does not work. I will have to test myself.
[POE // DVG-98] Jun 24, 2024 @ 1:16pm 
Hey, how do you treat wounds for militia? I've got a few that I can't bandage and the options to "treat" in operations menu is greyed out whether or not they have a medkit or a merc that's a doctor in the sector does.
[POE // DVG-98] Jun 23, 2024 @ 8:07pm 
@Azure. That worked. Thank you.
Azure Jun 22, 2024 @ 12:42pm 
Try this method to see if it works
