Vcom AI V2.0 - AI Overhaul

[n_icomach 312]

Awesome mod from what ive seen so far! Im having a little trouble getting these two variables working.

VCOM_USESMOKE = 0;

VCOM_Artillery = 0;

I have them put into the init.sqf and I am using the addon version of the mod. Is there a certain way I need to be using these commands? Thank you for any assistance.

Updated version frontpaged on the Armaholic homepage.

Both need to be = 1;

I believe.

should both player and host have addon? or not

[denco 16]

Why have I newer heard of this mod. Testing it right now because some features sound very good :)

Hmmm try a test for me. In your init.sqf, try putting this and let me know

sleep 1;

VCOM_USESMOKE = 0;
VCOM_Artillery = 0;

{
_x setVariable ["VCOM_Unit_USESMOKE",VCOM_USESMOKE,false];
_x setVariable ["VCOM_Unit_Artillery",VCOM_Artillery,false];
} foreach allunits;

ArtilleryArray = [];

If that works, then I may know what is going wrong.

If you are using only the addon version then all players should have it. IT IS NOT REQUIRED HOWEVER.

If all the AI is on the server then only the server needs the addon. However, If the clients control ANY AI, they will need the addon IF they want the VcomAI effects.

Thank you! It's nothin' too special haha

[kgino1045 12]

However, If the clients control ANY AI, they will need the addon IF they want the VcomAI effects.

So in this case

If All players are in blufor and enemy ai is in Opfor

and player 'A' control Zeus to spawn Opfor unit

(Player 'A' is Blufor)

That player 'A' need This vcom ai addon except others

right?

Correct, AI spawned by Zeus are local to the player who spawned them. Not the server :>

That seemed to work, though the one squad did throw one smoke. I did notice a small performance impact.

ive read the armaholic page and it looks amazing hearing that you make the AI to think better on their own

i have to ask, how is this with bcombat or ASR AI?? are they compatible? if not which ones do i need to disable (or a specific feature i need to turn off)

also will it ruin campaign?

There will be some conflicts, but these should work together much more nicely now. The only feature I can think to disable would be the AI response range. Changing it to 0 would disable it.

Apologies if this has been reported previously, I have enjoyed using VCOM, but it is RPT spamming an error which looks like an easy fix:

_parents = [_class,true] call BIS_fnc_returnParents;>

15:36:13 Error position: <_class,true] call BIS_fnc_returnParents;>

15:36:13 Error Undefined variable in expression: _class

I came here to request the same thing, this is an astounding mod, but the RPT spamming isn't very enjoyable. Thank you for your time, mod author.

[stephsen 79]

ok 10 hours gameplay: i've noticed that vehicles total often drive over the own soldiers :( , but the infantrie AI is Outstanding ;)

[acoustic 82]

RPT spamming is a big issue.

Other than that, AI is best I have ever seen.

And it doesnt seem like the AI is actually responding to engagements at 1000 meters.

Hey all! Thanks for your support and the reports of the RPT spamming. I always forget to check the .RPT file when I get in a rush.

I will release an update soon with these fixes...an unfortunate workaround would be to use -nolog if you really wanted to use this.

I hope to push out a fix soon. Thank you all again!

EDIT:

If anyone has time, could you try one of these versions and tell me if the .RPT spam still exists? I can't quite reach my computer.
