To avoid it, you should hide and hit on the back, and everything respect the nature of gameplay.

Well, the game is too hard. Even on easiest difficulty level. But don't
worry. I add the feature of "knocking down from the front" only to
three or four NPCs.

The game is not realistic in many parts. For example, why can the
doctor in concentration camp blow my cover? Does he now every
soldier of that camp? (There are ca. 100)?

Why do I die, if I stay more than 40 seconts in the regrigerator room in Hotel? Shortly: Not everything is realistic and even not fair in the game.
So I simplified only few things. Most of my changes are improvements.

I don't know how. But it sounds interesting

Again in respect of gameplay nature, this feature should be added but not whitout is problem... maybe making the alert level rising faster when in prossimity of enemies, after all you won't shot immediatly a colleague only because his jacket is spotted of blood, no?

Yes, as a big fan of the Hitman serie I miss this feature. But I think
it is not possible wihout original developer tools.

As I said above, there are only few changes. Selektion from the menu
is not possible. I regret.

In my opinion then it's better add this possibility to all NPC, but only at the lowest difficulty levels (like MoT)...

oh, and I can provide an inno setup script to make a nice installer of you mod, if you are interested...

I would like, but it is not possible due to the fact, that I need the
NPC IDs, but not every NPC has an ID. And I can't create one
without an level editor (swd files!)

But even if, it was to much work

Thanks I do not need a InnoScript ATM, because my addon is still not
finished.

Oh! I've forgotten. There were already some NPCs that could be
knocked down frontally:

1. Level "Cannibal" the target person Dietrich Meltzer
2. Level "Stronghold" the target person Boris Polyakov
3. Level "Removal" the target person without a name (the informer)
4. Level "Training" some soviet soldiers

I dunno why haggard added this feature to the NPCs #2 and #3
Because these are not enemies???
