| - | Here you can create extra factions. You can also override the default ones. By default BLU_F, OPF_F, IND_F are used for the units in the template so if you change the class name of a faction BLU_F it will then be used by all NATO units in the default template. This is because faction configs are looked for first in the mission and then in the modpack and the NATO, FIA, CSAT and FIA faction configs are in the modpack rather than the mission. | + | Here you can create extra factions, or override the default ones.
