Enemy AI Divers throw Grenades under water

[jgaz-uk 133]

Since last update 1.08 patch (today 11/11/13) the Enemy Opforce AI seem to have the ability to throw Grenades under water & also shout at each other underwater. was this not an old A3 Alpha problem?

Not fixed with latest patch 1.10

[Chalkoutline 10]

The newest patch broke a few things, so I wouldn't expect a fix for that until they fix the stuff that wasn't broken to begin with.

However, I never encountered this problem, are you running any AI mods?

It happens with Vanilla ArmA3 put an enemy Opforce diver squad in the water swim towards them as a blue force diver, they will after a minute start to throw Grenades at you. Bis know, it has been assigned but not fixed.

And again with latest patch 04/03/14 still a problem

A simple but fiddly solution for this problem (which has never been fixed as of 05/08/14) is to put; removeAllWeapons this; this addWeapon"arifle_SDAR_F";this addmagazines["20Rnd_556x45_UW_mag", 5]; in each AI's divers init. If they dont have grenades they cant throw them. Would have thought Bis could make this default? ie Divers dont have grenades yes?

Technically in RL you can throw a grenade underwater ( as the fuse it's sealed ), in fact some ... "smart guys" use them to fish, specially in third world countries.

And shouting, well I guess it depends if they have a mic in their breather.

In RL; You can throw a grenade into water obviously, but you can not throw one whilst under water far enough not to kill yourself. The AI are throwing as far underwater as on land which technically is rubbish.
