VCOM AI b0s edit
VCOM AI B0S edit is a fix and upgrade for VCOM AI based on the last dev version. Basically VCOM 5.0 dev.
Big thanks and all credits of the original go to Dominic/Genesis92x!!!
Read about the original features HERE
This version is generally more toned down – not everyone will rush everywhere all the time and battles are slower paced.
I do not have much time for fixes or feature requests and some things may be broken. This was created with a lot of AI help. Take it as it is and enjoy if you can.
I do not know if this works in multiplayer.
On my 7745HX and 32GB RAM I can run a town battle of about 200vs200 over 30fps. I play this with ~150 mods – RHS, LAMBS, PIR, JSRS, PINNED down, Dismemberment, Blastcore, Drongos stuff etc.
Current fixes and features:
*Fixed VCM_fnc_ClstEmy error
*Fixed _staticlist fn_StaticCheck error
*Fixed the "AI impacted by Vcom skill settings" toggle. Now working
*Idle groups will now react with taking cover when bullets hit nearby. Previously there was no reaction besides the vanilla ducking.
They should engage but not fire immidiately.
*Idle garrison
Idle groups (over 1 unit) without waypoints will temporarely garrison nearby buildings and later move out again. CBA setting on/off. The Hold waypoint still works.
60-150s start, stay garrisoned 150..300s
*Hearing
Complete rewrite of hearingaids. Previously all groups hearing the shot would rush to the position. The "reveal" of suppression, hearingaids is now based on whole group shot counts.
3-5 shots loop a reveal on the shooter (simplified to last shooter in group). Investigation waypoint for idle groups on 6-10 shots.
Hearing doesnt instantly give full target knowledge.
*Added Reinforcment call limits based on enemy vs friendly ratio and settings. Previosly all available units were called to reinforce at once, even when the forces were equal.
Reinforcements now able to assist multiple times. If 80% of group is down make call anyway.
CBA settings
Reinforcement call-help ratio – enemy vs friendly units present for call
Reinforcements presence radius – Radius to count freindly presence
Reinforcements max groups – 1 to n groups to call
*Flankmove added check to skip water waypoints
*Add basic infosharing. Toggle and distance settings. Keep it low distance or knowledge will travel to everyone.
*Player reinf request – default keybind ctrl+p request the nearest not busy 2+ unit group to help. Cooldown 120s.
*Mines now only laid by AI and chance works. Feature disabled when 0 chance
*Added safeguards for frozen team leaders and wandering group members
*Added static and uav deployment toggle. Restructured script.
*Explosion hearing – suppresses nearby units and creates investigation wp. CBA settings for range and investigation chance. 0 range to disable
*Vehicle "sensors" – armed vehicles(car,apc,tank,heli,plane) will occasionaly get 360 degree knowledge about enemy in line of sight. Depends on vehicle type, nr of crew and chance settings. Planes and helis get 3x range. 3 Cba settings. 0 range to disable
*Better/new player flashlight/vis laser/IR laser/IR flash detection. Adds compability with ITN and Webknights. ITN would previously break all detection. Up to 500m. CBA toggle
*In CBA new stuff is "VCOM SETTINGS2" and some options moved to "VCOM General Skills"
Conflicts and broken stuff:
*AI Pathfinder Improvement seems to cause frozen units.
*Units will freeze sometimes anyway
*VCOM will overwrite LAMBS danger fsm and there are conflicts. The Lambs modules however seem usable. I know lambs breaks detection – you will be 1 shot detected again(that vcom fixed)
*Idle anims feature is broken
