they probably use diggers cuz they're in the tools category or digger category. Someone should try putting a smg in the tools category and see what happens. It's the same thing with duel wielding, put a gun in the shields category and it can duel wield. Put a gun in the tools category, and the AI can dig with it. I dunno if this is right but someone should test.

you maybe?

^reason why i arent.

I have a question. I know I've seen a thread about this, but I've spent a little over 10 minutes searching for it, and just gave up.

How do you make it so that the AI will be able to use the mods you download, specifically the actors and guns?

Read the stickies in mod making. Specifically, 'activities.ini'.

Ah boy, it's more complicated and time consuming than I thought.
Thanks, by the way.

it's rly not that hard, if you want you could pm me the mods u want and i could help u out with it.

Oddity for the Ai of YOUR TEAM.

Ive brought this one up before but ill say it before

Grifs A bombsin Quantity make the A bomb soldiers SMARTER battle wise

three Light troopers with ak's where guarding my base,dreadnaught walked up and the guy in frint went prone,the guy in the middle squatedand the guy in backjust stood.

Together thy fired on the dreadnaught and killed it quickely under a Hail of ak rounds.

they also moved (including jetpacked) around my base to intercept enemies inside,WITHOUT KILLING EACHOTHER!

if i can get it to happen again ill post a pic (ill try again tommorow)

I was just playing when i saw two enemy soldiers were coming towards my heavy soldier and there were corpses in the tunnel and they took cover behind them it was so cool!

Man, this ♥♥♥♥ reminds me of how awesome the ai could be...

two crouched one in front and one in back (facing away from and covering rest of squad, and the one standing is in the middle providing extra fire to the side that needs it.

Hmm, i just tought I'd post this...
When I was playing solo in the Space Crater map (great thing, that)
I heard digger. I quickly looked up the doorways etc., nothing.
Then, I noticed a robot, having a fully open route to my doors,
was still digging some of the bare gold bricks found in the map,
whilst moving towards my base.
Since the normal gold mining Ai doesn't work, that was kinda wierd.

Ummm it tought it was an obsticle and tried to remove it so it could keep on going.

There was some wreckage in the way of my base and two skellies walked towards it. One stopped and lied down, the other walked on top of the prone skeleton to get over the wreckage.

Sadly my bubble of AI coolness was burst as the prone one stood up and walked into the wreckage until he blew up.

There could've been space to fly through, so digging wouldn't be neccessary.

You honestly think the bot would know that?
