Description:
New feature: Auto artillery

After deploying your howitzers (including self-propelled howitzers) in place, use the AI button in the gear menu to switch them to AI control mode. Then these AI controlled howitzers can detect enemies within 360m and execute firing commands on them.
If u need AI enemies and allies artillery have the same script, please load: Enable AI Arty Script

Auto medic

Medics will decide on their own if they need to rescue the wounded within 100m. (If there are enemies within 50m, medics will not take rescue action.)
The auto-medic switch can be found in the gear tool menu in the lower right corner of each medic, and can control whether this medic performs the auto medic order.

AA guns enhancement

AA guns will hear enemy aircraft within 250m and lock onto the target until the aircraft is out of range or is shot down.

Random weather switch (from MOD "Bright-colored Graphic Style")

After selecting a unit, you can find it in the gear menu in the bottom right corner. Weathers are from the MOD: Bright-colored Graphic Style , which is included some HD sky textures. Weather is not suitable for all maps. If the ground reflection is too bright after switching, please continue to switch to the appropriate weather. It is recommended to turn off the HDR option in the game settings.
It is an honor to invite 无恒阎乀老西 to develop this 🙂

AI control button

After selecting one or multiple units (must have a squad leader), left click on the AI button in the gear menu, and then left click on the ground to switch to AI control. AI controlled troops can engage automatically when encountering enemies, and have no fuel or ammo consumption. Their behavior logic is determined by the game engine.

These scripted features above are only supported on official maps (all modes). If you want to run on a custom map, please watch the second tutorial video above.

Non-scripted features

Allow cannons load HE, WP, IC, and SM shells by themself.
Allow non-AA units to shoot aircraft.
Automatic switching of grenade type (HE/HEAT) for rifle grenadiers.
AT rifles, heavy machine guns, auto cannons, etc. will give priority to attacking tracks when facing heavily armored units.
Removed the code that only targets the body of the vehicle when attacking it, so that even if the vehicle only reveals parts that are not the body, it will be attacked.
Removed the code that only targets the ground when attacking inf with HE. Because if it is not removed, the cannon will not attack when the infantry’s feet are not exposed.
Allow AI-controlled infantry to use rocket launcher to fire on enemy infantry.
Unlocked the rocket for IL2. Now AI airstrike can use the rocket.
Searchlights will keep lighting enemy targets. The light will be noticed by enemy.

Compatibility

Compatibility Q&A

1.Compatible with CheatMod?
NO. Compatibility with Cheat mod means that I need to copy the scripts he wrote into my MOD… This not only requires permission from the Cheat mod creator, but to be honest, I don’t really want to do it. Maybe you guys can try making a compatible local version.

2. Compatible with Valour?
Can use together, but cannot guarantee effectiveness

3. Compatible with CE?
No.

4. Compatible with HotMod?
Not recommend to use with Hotmod. I have written some special scripts for Hotmod (auto medic, AA enhancement, deletion of DCG AI airstrike, auto board heavy machine gun, etc), which will cover these functions if used together.

5. Compatible with Battlefield?
Compatible.
