Controlling Multiple "Users"

[LordMalory]

So there are some "RPG-style" campaigns I want to play but I can't always get five people to commit. Lets say myself and my friend want to play a 5-person. How do we control the other 3 "factions/heros/etc?" Any AI i have tried (about 6) are totally [censored] unless they are melee damage characters. Recommendations?

Set the other sides as "local player." Then you (the host) will be in control of them, as though it were a hotseat-style game. If you then want to pass some off to your friend, just use :control side# name.
