Friendly actor cog...

You know how in MotS the rebel guys don't attack you? Well, in JK, how do I make it so that stormtroopers don't attack you, but attack anything besides other stormtroopers?

	Else AIClearMode(friend, 0x1206);

end
That should work, just make sure all stormies have this class cog. Credit me for this.

Oh boy. Class cog = actor cog. So, open up the template, and change the cog=actor_whatever.cog to cog=actor_stdp.cog or whatever you called it. There is another way, just rename the cog to the st actor's origanal cog. That will overwrite it. But if this is for a custom level, don't rename.
