Quick FRED Question - Making opposing enemies?
How do I make enemy forces battle against each other? Like a multi force battle where enemy forces are fighting amongst themselves while both are still are hostile to the player's force?

You've got Friendly (to Alpha1), Hostile, Neutral and Unknown. In the Mission Box (I forget which tab) you want to click All Sides at War (or whatever the wording is). IIRC Unknown is ignored by the others and neutral is what HOL were in FS1.

Or fool around iff_defs.tbl and create new iffs to do your bidding...

But thats only if you are planning to do something like a small mod or campaign. For a single mission there is absolutely no point to use that iff_defs.tbl
