I somehow doubt that these levels were designed with anything in mind! :mrgreen:

Seriously, the only level in the entire Heretic IWAD where infighting may be useful is E2M1 with its large swarm of Imps. But even there most are already normal ones that can infight among themselves.

Oh, and while we are at it: The same issue exists for Hexen's Chaos Serpents.

Re: ALWAYSINFIGHT. I didn't make a flag, but I did make a property.

That, at least, seems reasonable to change.

I've got an idea to allow more flexibility (or rather "ease") when defining families: instead of only resorting to inheritance, also have a string-type property that makes all monsters having the same text not attack each other. Nevermind, I saw it was added just now in the feature suggestions.
