AI units transferred to the headless client ignore gunshots from player/s. When the locality of the AI is transferred back to the server (or never moved in the first place) AI react correctly.

I've attached a demo mission which gives the user an addAction to change AI to the HC, please allow time for them to change (10-15 seconds). This was done in a vanilla environment, the client is the stable 1.64 release (1.64.0.138732) and so is the server.

Server launch params: -port=2320 -config=C:\arma\profiles\server.cfg -cfg=C:\arma\profiles\basic.cfg -profiles=C:\arma\profiles\server -enableHT -nosound

HC launch params: -client -connect=127.0.0.1 -password=***** -port=2320 -profiles=C:\arma\profiles\hc -cpuCount=2

Server.cfg contains the required code

localClient[]			= {"127.0.0.1"};
headlessClients[]		= {"127.0.0.1"};

Additional Information

init.sqf

isHcPresent = !isNil {hc_unit} && {!isNull hc_unit} && {isPlayer hc_unit};

if (isHcPresent && {hasInterface}) then {
    player addAction ["Transfer to HC", {
        [[],{
            private _hcOwner = owner hc_unit;
            {
                _x setGroupOwner _hcOwner;
            } foreach (allGroups select { side _x == east });
        }] remoteExec ["bis_fnc_call", 2]
    }];
}
