Ssnake (director of eSim) became more specific about how the option for civilian pedestrians functions. He explained that there are...
Quote:
... source and drain zones, and assigned clone actor pools. The clones will appear in the source and automatically move to the drain, then being returned to the pool of actors (think of "extras" in a movie set who may receive different costumes and will just create the impression of a busy street with no talking role). So, to create a busy village you simply create a region around it, declare it to be both the source and its own drain, set the number of characters that you want to see simultaneously, and you will see them appear and wander from one random spot to another in the village.
Of course you can have multiple drain zones for each source, and you can set conditions when to start and when to stop spawning the clone actors.

Randomizations also are possible.
From now on, ROEs to actually protect civilians will be a part of the SBP world.
