groups?

[agedbear]

So on the topic of Engineer IC's, several of the IC's can be configured to only respond to a set player group. Without additional info to base this off of I am going to assume that groups and towns are one and the same. Now this is most likely wrong as when I have tried to create aforementioned IC's that respond to a town (player group) that nothing happened. With this being the case I am seeking more information on how player groups are worked into HC. Additionally I am looking to find out if there is a command that can be used to identify what groups are on the server and how they integrate with IC's.

thank you for your time in reading this.

tagging balance team since they handle player professions, Coders since they write all of our code and Kainzo because well... he is Kainzo and none of us would be here if it werent for him

We will not be able to change or add groups for IC's - this is a failing with the system created by ICs.

so then making a gate or a drawbridge keyed to a towns' inhabitants using player detectors is not possible?
