now, inb4 someone will point out one thing, let me save you the trouble.
yes, friendly fire in the squad gamemode is not an issue.
in customs however, it kinda is.
because for example, lone fighters, team damage is enabled by default.
or, if the session hoster selected squads with hardcore settings. or even modded missions.
anyway,
main suggestion
the main suggestion is relatively easy in concept, but perhaps not so much in coding and whatever.
anyway, it would be extremely great and appreciated if the bloody ai would stop to shoot their own allies.
countless time i’m seeing AI squads wiping themselves because few fires, and others move.
like, they don’t recognize allies when they are firing at someone or something. often strucking players and others ai unfortunate enough to cross the line of fire.
so, i’m not opposed as getting killed by the ai if i actually walk in his line of fire.
example, a bot is spraying with the mg and i walk in his line of fire.
that’s on me.
but getting killed by an AI that is standing behind me and starts engage the ai in front of me and shoots at me in an attempt to kill the ai in front of me, anyone is less cool with it.
not to mention, if you tell your own squad to stand in a place, and they come across enemies, they will execute each other in the back of the head. especially on larger squads. attempting to kill people infront of them.
so… this should stop.
solutions could be;
-
make AI reposition if there is a friendly in the way. and then make them fire.
similar to how if you are aiming, the ai will make an attempt to move away from your face. -
don’t make them fire if any friendly is in the way
or any other solution really.
and that is all. thank you for listening.
