Title: Modify rate of fire? {answered}
Post by: Dajan on 02 Sep 2009, 20:31:25

I suspect I'm on to a loser here - certainly I couldn't find anyone else who'd been dumb enough to ask, but:-

Is it possible the use a script to reduce the AIs gung-ho attitude toward ammo? Watching a squad blaze away at a running target 300m distant is depressing in itself, but when they're all gunning on rock n roll I just can't help nashing my teeth! Given how bloody awkward it is to rearm a squad mid-firefight I often find myself wondering how the hell an AI can possibly have gone to the hollywood school of marksmanship ::)

So to reitterate: Can I restrict the AI to semi-auto fire via a script?

TIA

I think these values in config of Weapons.pbo has something to do with it:aiRateOfFire,
aiRateOfFireDistance.I think some mods have better values,check Bi-forums for them.

Sounds like you're saying adjustment can only be done by editing the weapons in their containing .pbo, not through any in-game scritping or functions, yes?

Well, it's the cleanest solution and the way it is meant to be changed. Any other "solution" (if possible at all) should be considered a workaround.

So, yes. :)
