Yep, I looked at it-thought it was cool then started playing. Managed to befriend the Huari, got to their temple and agreed to help. Then met up with a quadzillion Sung and, well, died along with the Huari. Looked at that bit of code again then went back to playing--chose the same route as before and again, died by a quadzillion Sung.
So, after looking at that bit of code once nore, I played again only this time I came prepared with a mess of barricades and fortified that temple 3 fold with them. Dock to help them again and guess what? I chose the wrong frigging route and now I'm set to go kill a blasted stronghold!

Well, at least the Huari felt more secure with having all those barricades around them! :roll:

The dream sequence is like a choose your own adventure, but much more dangerous. I like what George did there, and it is a great example for modding future missions based around some partly dynamic user-driven plot generation.

I looked at prescience in the code- I can't see any evidence that it actually does anything- all the code shows is that the button in the menu exists- there doesn't seem to be any function that it invokes however...
