Thread: AI throwing lots of smoke?

  1. #1

    AI throwing lots of smoke?

    This is really strange, but I hopped into a previously recent made and tested mission of mine tonight just trying something out and noticed that the AI soldiers were using heaps of smoke grenades. I've noticed in the past that the AI occasionally pop a smoke grenade but this was ridiculous... There were white clouds everywhere.
    No I don't use any AI mods like Zeus, I don't use ACE either. I do use a little of the GL4 mod but not the AI stuff and no I haven't made any changes to the AI game mode difficulty settings. This just suddenly occurred out of the blue

    Firstly has anyone else ever had this weird phenomenon happen to them? And secondly is there a way to disable the AI throwing smoke altogether anyway as the way they do it is unrealistic anyway.

    Thanks

    Hi Gunter,

    No it isn't that as I'd noticed that before, but am not using that mod anyway.

    I found what was causing it. It was to do with me not having the GL4 system initialize module in the mission. Even though I'm only using the radio chatter addon part from the GL4 mod which works without the module it seems that you still need to add the module as otherwise the AI start acting a bit different. Throwing heaps of smoke and leaving their posts even before they sense danger.

    The reason I hadn't noticed it at 1st was that when I did my initial testing I had the module in, but noticed that the radio chatter still worked without it so I then didn't bother to put it back in again.

    So my fault really

    Funny.... AI doesn't throw any smoke bombs even on units that have them by default... it must be a mod?
