Is it possible to have an NPC join your team? (like in mission 19 where you save the reaver elders.) If it possible how do you do it. I can't seem to figure it out. thanks for the help.

Yep, make a NPC with another player index. And then make sure he has a specific tag name like "Freddy" or whatever. Then create a trigger with a condition like he is in the same zone with you or a certain speech node has occured. For the action of the trigger use "Change Player" and pick his tag name in the field for "Unit". Then have the index change to Player Index 1 -Human.

That is kind of a quick description of what you need to do. If something doesn't make sense there, let me know and I'll go into more detail.

The one bug is that you can't immediateley make him go into "Sentry Mode Aggressive". You have to save the game and reload it for this function to work.

Also I suggest if you want to learn more about mapmaking, come over to the Duck and Cover forums:
