description
Note: This mod is for the server only, because its a mutator. Please do not subscribe to it on your client-side.
The goal of this mod is to improve the AI to make the coop has better experience and better gameplay.
You will be able to fully customize the configs and settings of this mod. We will see if we can change the AI and improve them like making them peek while they are behind the cover. They will know how to change their position and give themselves a better position to target the player. They will know when to use grenade at the right time and call for support and such.
Mutator Name:
- ImprovedAI
All configs will go in your game.ini and under the line [/ImprovedAI/Mutators/ImprovedAI.ImprovedAI_C]
You do not have to put all the configs. Only use the config you want to change the default value to something you want. The configs that aren't present in your game.ini file, it will be automatic use the default value below.
Configuring BotSkillCfg
The BotSkillCfg is originally part of the game but we weren't able to fully config it to the way we want it to be. With this mod, you will able to modify the config to the way you want without changing it in the theater. If you are not an advanced user then I suggest you look at other mod that changes bot skill config.
This BotSkillCfg will not work with any mod that changes the bot skill config in the theater file like Tactical Bots. If the theater file only changes player slot, class, weapon, or other stuff without changing the bot skill then it will work. This whole BotSkillCfg is made using blueprint nodes.
Regardless if BotSkillCfg gets override by other mod or not, other features like custom bot behavior and custom bot name in this mod will still work.

Custom Bot Behavior Configs
These are custom bot behavior I made using the blueprints that we have. It can change how bot behaves. It still needs more work and testing. If you do not wish to use these, you can disable them. These bot behaviors will not change BotSkillCfg. It just another behavior on top of it.
Aim at Closest Target
;Amount of second delay before finding another closest target
AimDelay=0.5
;Enable bot to aim at the closest target base on the distance
bForceAimAtClosestTarget=True
;Line of sight check for bot (Disabling this will just make bot target the closest target without LOS)
bLOS=True
;Aim at target base on the priority type
;Example for Sprint, it will only aim at the target if they are sprinting and the rest that are on top of Sprint (Idle, Interesting, LastSeenThreat, and Footsteps)
AimPriority=Forced
;List of Priority Type
;Idle
;Interesting
;LastSeenThreat
;Footsteps
;Sprint
;Gunshot
;Enemy
;Forced
Note: Aiming at the target doesn't mean they will shoot at them. BotSkillCfg will before the one trigger the weapon fire and the accuracy or you can use the Force Firing behavior I made.
Find Cover
;Enable to force bot to find the closest area to cover
bFindCover=True
;Amount of X seconds before looking for new cover
;Having least seconds will make bot keep trying to moving from cover to cover instead of shooting their target
CoverTick=5.0
;Also find cover right away when bot is taking damage but didn't die yet
bFindCoverWhenShotAt=True
;Bot will only stay in cover when bot's morale is less than or equal to this value after getting a new cover
;No morale at all = 0.0 Thats when bot is taking a lot of damage and teammate is dying a lot
;Max morale = 100.0
CoverMoraleValue=20.0
Note: This cover behavior is just to force the bot to find a new hiding area. The base game cover will still apply to this. BotSkillCfg cover will be the one changing the bot stance like prone. Using this behavior will make the game longer because bot tends to stay in cover more.
Misc
;Strafing is from UE4
;It allow the bot to run and slide and shoot at the same time
;This is disabled by default. Enable it will make game pace faster and the bot will run and gun at you more often
bStrafe=True
Force Firing
;Force bot to fire at player
;Require bLOS and from bForceAimAtClosestTarget from Aim at closest target config
bForceFiring=True
;Chance to trigger when bForceFiring is enabled, every X second base on AimDelay
;Default 10%
FiringChance=0.1
Note: Force Firing is base on Aim at Closest Target. It will only fire if the closest target is found. If that feature is disabled then this force firing will not work.
Custom Bot Names
This feature will work regardless if you are using another mod that is replacing the BotSkillCfg or not. This is made using blueprints/nodes.
All bot names are randomly picked and you have to set them in BotNameList
. If bot amount exceeds the bot name list then bot name won't be changed.
The bot names will be automatic updates with new bot joins or leaves. If a bot is using a player name and that player left the game. That bot name will be replaced.
Remember if you have a duplicated bot name on the list, it will only appear once.
;Enable the custom bot names feature
;If you don't like custom bot names and you want to use other feature from the mutator then you can disable this
bCustomBotNames=True
;Enable prefix tag for the bot name
bUseBotTag=False
;The prefix tag to display for bot
;Give your own space if you want a space between bot tag and bot name
BotPrefixTag=[BOT]
;Bot also use player name and add it to the bot name list only if the player is present in game
bUsePlayerName=True
;List of bot names
BotNameList=Mikee,Arc,DaraDef,AniCator,Guinevere,sswires,Circleus,John Doe,Jeroen,fatherHank
