We need a customizable alliance system more than anything else in OFP2.
The side system as it is now is very limited and cause of a lot of trouble and incompatibility for addons makers. Beside for modern conflicts, the opposition East/West is no longer relevant.
what about a table system that will allow to easily choose which side the units are on? not just the choice of east, west , both or none. the table of alliance would have to be made by the mission maker. Which means that the addons would not have a fixed side right from the beginning, but the sides would be fixed in the editor at the time of mission editing.
something like that for exemple:
| Side 1 | side 2 | side 3 | side 4 | etc...
-------------------------------------------------------
side1 | NA | N | E | A |
-------------------------------------------------------
side2 | A | NA | E | N |
-------------------------------------------------------
side3 | N | N | NA | N |
-------------------------------------------------------
side4 | N | E | E | NA |
-------------------------------------------------------
etc.... |
A bieng Allied
E being Enemy
N being Neutral
This way, the hassle to find a suitable (and compatible) addon will be a thing of the past.
