Single fire on AI

[mattplayssimulations 1]

Hello, I'm trying to make a mission where a convoy roll up and they disembark. A few seconds later, I have a sniper team on the hill but i want them to only take a single shot.

Is there any easy way to get the AI fire at the players with only a single shot?

Been looking all over but no luck. I've managed to get them to fire from a long range but not with only a single shot.

Thanks!

In the units init field:

this addEventhandler ["Fired",{
	params ["_unit"];
	_unit setCombatMode "BLUE";
	_unit removeEventhandler ["Fired",_thisEventhandler];
}];

This will make the unit disengage and hold fire after the first shot and also removes the eventhandler if needed.

 

Cheers

Thank you! is "blue" related to the faction? NATO convoy and Russian snipers.

"Blue" is related to their combat mode: setCombatMode

This usually initiates an inner discourse about proper uses of that one remaining bullet without any meaningful outcome.
