Curious, I've never come across this, even in semi-lengthy engagements. Did you alter the Ammunition bars of the AIs ?

Haha no I battled for a few hours, taking over base after base town after town. Yes it was a very big quick mission that I roughed up in the editor, and in mission whilst making sure that my AI team stays safe, they went from 10 to 2, and the last 2 AI with me ran out of ammo and died lol.

Of course I could have easily told them to re-arm, but I could get killed doing so, as they would have to change their weapon to the enemies.

I could have easily uploaded the mission if i still had it as it was before making this ticket, but noone wants to play continuously for hours straight in 1 mission to test it out lol, so I made it a little easier and a lot smaller lol.

I think the way to test it out is to purposely set the ammo to low, let them run out of it and see what happens.

Arma 2 had this same problem. I remember having to use a mod to actually fix this behaviour. I can confirm this is still an issue here.

You can give unlimited ammo to ai units and also disable reload weapon with a little script line.

@SkyFyre: Yes i think the mod is ASR AI? Or something along the lines of that. Of course someone would probably mod this at least until BIS can provide the feature.

@B00tsy: I'd prefer a touch of realism to ArmA as to allow AI units to re-arm themselves rather than cheat to have unlimited ammo and never reload... i'd leave that til last if nothing else can be done.

Anyone else interested in this feature?
