Let AI squad members be able to use structures

Now since the devs implemented a lot of new features regarding squads led by AI I think it’s more important and on time we get to command our own AI to do the same stuff.

To enhance the uniqueness of this game – commanding a squad – one should be able to command squad members to use stationary MGs and other buildable structures like AA or AT guns.

Let’s say I build an MG nest. I command one of my AI using it and continue fighting or building something else.

It would be one of many conceivable features that would make your AI something else than extra lives parked and hidden in the closet.

i thought there was an update for them to use MG nests months back?

Only the AI squads. Those squads that fill up lobbies/replace deserting humans. Only those can use MG emplacements, sadly.

AI bots in this game can’t get out of their own way, or mine for that matter, they can’t keep up on the battlefield, and they can’t follow basic orders like “STAY”. So unless the DEV’s show they can at the very least master the very basics of AI bot programming there is NO WAY for bots to use structures.
