This mod makes small changes to a couple maps to prevent NPCs from slowing down the battle (and your computer).
To install, download and move the attached files to "Telepath Tactics\Data\Campaigns\The Vengeance of Emma Strider\Maps". Congrats! No more NPCs slowing down your battle!
If things aren't working correctly, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
Can you make a version of this for the battle with Ebon Raban as well?
If you give me the exact map name and what needs to be removed at the start of the battle, sure! I haven't actually made it further than the Bloodbeard's fortress, so I have no idea what specifically you're talking about.
I believe it's literally just called "Battle with Ebon Raban".
Okay, I've pulled up the map you're talking about. You want all non-combatants to be cleared from the map? This might take a while; but I should be able to do it.
-EDIT-
Aaaaaaand done. I took a shorter route, but it should work just as well. I'll update the original post with it here in just a second.
The bartender speaks with Sabrina's portrait. Other than that, no issues so far.
