AI Tags

[kbatbouta]

Goal

• To give a clear distinctive weaponTags and things alike that facilitate the implementation of AI systems such as smart ammo selection and better weapon switching.

Suggested weapon tags

These tags are to indicate possible roles of a weapon.

Note a weapon should have every tag that applies to it since this is intended to discourage or encourage weapon switching, thus if a weapon is suitable for multiple roles then we could just keep using it instead of switching.

• CE_AI_Broom for any weapon effective at close range. (Trench broom)
• CE_AI_LMG for any weapon the can be used for suppression.
• CE_AI_AR for any weapon that is effective at medium range.
• CE_AI_SNIPER for any weapon that is effective at medium range to long range with single shots.
• CE_AI_AOE to be used to indicate any AOE weapon.
• CE_AI_Smoke Given to weapon capable of creating smoke screens.
• CE_AI_Emp Given to weapon capable of creating Emp AOE effect.

Suggested ammo tags

These tags should be used with a new mod extension to AmmoDef indicate the type of ammo.

• CE_Ammo_AOE used for AOE ammo. (Should be added to all AOE ammo)
• CE_Ammo_Ball used for point type ammo.
• CE_Ammo_AP used for armor piercing ammo.
• CE_Ammo_EMP used for Emp ammo.
• CE_Ammo_Smoke used for smoke ammo.

Note: I'm yet to create this new mod extension.

CE_AI_Default:
For slow firing weapons such as bolt actions, crossbows and musket, they default to the baseline aim-mode as defined in their xml and do not try to switch modes based on distance as they'll just miss everytime.
Also acts as a fail safe for any weapons that doesn't fit the existing catergory.
