Flaxpants 10 Posted November 18, 2009 Looking for some advice on getting my ai squad members to use their satchel charges correctly without blowing up their own team mates. I've had a couple of instances where I've team-switched to a saboteur, placed charges, and then switched back to the team leader, during which time the ai saboteur has thought it a good idea to just detonate the charges. Does a standard 'Hold Fire' order work in this instance? Is it the switching between characters that is causing the problem? Anyone else getting blown up by their friends?

maturin 12 Posted November 18, 2009 I think the issue is that the AI only place timed charges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nkenny 1051 Posted November 18, 2009 When a AI that 'owns' a planted charge moves 50m away from said charge. He immediately detonates it. While an 'attack' this does not check for friendly fire. Solution is to be careful when ordering AI to plant charges and be mindful of the 50 meters rule. -k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
