; Enemy Ambushes
; This setting allows a chance an enemy group ambush player's squad.
; The chance is based on many factors:
; * Game difficulty.
; * Whether you know if the enemy is there or not.
; * How big the enemy group is (very large groups will not likely ambush you, smaller groups can ambush you more likely).
; * Number of your mercs (meaning how easily the enemy can detect you soon enough to prepare for you. More mercs 
;    mean higher chance).
; * Highest level amongst the mercs in your squad.
; * Some other small circumstances.
; * Finally the calculated chance is percentually multiplied by ENEMY_AMBUSHES_CHANCE_MODIFIER 

; If you play with new traits, the "Scouting" trait in your squad can prevent these ambushes.
; If you like to play vanilla JA2 style, set this to FALSE.

ENABLE_CHANCE_OF_ENEMY_AMBUSHES = TRUE

; With this setting, you can make the chance bigger (by positive value) or smaller (by negative)
; (Setting this to -50 means the precalculated chance will be reduced to half. Values from -100 to 100 are allowed.)
ENEMY_AMBUSHES_CHANCE_MODIFIER = 0

; If set to TRUE and mercs are ambushed, they won't start clustered in one location and looking in one direction.
; Instead they will be spread around the map central entry point, no more than AMBUSH_MERCS_SPREAD_RADIUS tiles away, and all looking outwards.
; If one of your team has high enough leadership and Squadleader trait, you will be able to deploy your mercs in that zone prior to entering the sector.
AMBUSH_MERCS_SPREAD = TRUE

AMBUSH_MERCS_SPREAD_RADIUS = 10

; If set to 1 and mercs are ambushed, enemies nearer than AMBUSH_MERCS_SPREAD_RADIUS to the map central entry point will instead be distributed more outward:
; They will be placed around that point, not closer than AMBUSH_ENEMY_ENCIRCLEMENT_RADIUS1 and not further away than AMBUSH_ENEMY_ENCIRCLEMENT_RADIUS2 tiles.
; These radii will be modified by your team's experience, scout trait and backgroun values.
; They will face the center entry point (and thus the mercs).
; If set to 2, all enemies will be placed that way, not just those nearer than AMBUSH_MERCS_SPREAD_RADIUS.
AMBUSH_ENEMY_ENCIRCLEMENT = 1
