@Syro System - That's correct. What you could do is edit or mod your own XComAI.ini and insert it to TryShootOrReloadOrOverwatch and TryShootOrReload as Child [0], that's what I am going to do for the timebeing.
@DerBK - My pleasure. Looking forward to it.

The behavior of enemies shooting at explodey barrels will be integrated into ABA soon.
Thanks for doing the dirty work, RedDobe :)

Just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly, this is a mod meant to be used by people who code mods right?
It won't take effect if I just play a vanilla game and use only this mod?

@MrMister - update posted to reflect your suggestions as I didn't even consider that once adding your first suggestion.

@Rockfire X : He is doing some of the best work, I look forward to it to, though for some reason my infirmary order DOUBLE the bandages after reading your post!

Also, in the case of 1 ally and at least 2 booguies - make sure that the ally is, yoy know, not self. And if not much harder to code, not chosen (it might still be worth it to ADVENT, but it very probably won't be worth it to the individual doing the shooting).

I can only fear for what advent avengers plans are for this.

MrMister - Was considering that already, yes I can.

Could you add another situation for firing when there is 1 friendly in range of explosion but at least 2 non-Lost booguies too?

@RedDobe
That's awesome, I love it when the AI gets a new tool under their belt, can't wait to see what Advent Avenger can do with this.

Imagine this, you're fighting with a pod of troopers, but then the chosen hunter shows up he's somewhere in the shadows, the troopers pin you down near a gas station, your rookie and squaddie are suppressed and stuck right behind one of the stations pumps, you hear a hook in the distance then BOOM, your squaddie is dead and your rookie is injured, all thanks to the hunter, that would be so cool!

Gonna go ahead and subscribe to this so I have the requirement when Advent Avenger inevitably adds support to his mods.

Yes, the AI targets destructibles the same way XCom can, so if a unit has squad site then yes it will consider it when deciding targets.
AaronOnMoon 26 Nov, 2019 @ 8:46pm 
Can the ai shoot destructible objects that are in squad sight range? Because I'd love to add this behavior to the chosen hunter.

No, but what you could do is edit or mod your own XComAI.ini and add to the beginning of TryShootOrReloadOrOverwatch and TryShootOrReload, that's what I am going to do for the timebeing.

Does this do anything by itself to the vanilla enemies?

Absolutely fantastic. Bring on the salt and tears!
