Steps To Reproduce

Create a mission containing 1 or more enemy AI.
Run the mission on a dedicated server and connect to it as a client

Run the following code on your player character for 2 reasons

Stops you from getting killed
Allows you to see when you have been hit

-----------------------------------

  Txu_HitCounter = 0;

  Player addeventhandler 	["HandleDamage",{}];
  Player addMPEventHandler ["mphit", {Txu_HitCounter = Txu_HitCounter + 1; player sidechat  format ["  >>> %1 Hit",name (_this select 0), Txu_HitCounter];}];

Walk towards the AI, once the individual AI has emptied its first magazine and reloaded you will no longer

  1. see Muzzle flashes
  2. hear Firing sounds

You will however see them reload and you will continue to take hits.

It is more visually obvious when running the mission at night

Additional Information

I do not know if this is prevalent in previous versions or the stable

I dont think this relates to Localization

I think he meant local/distant regarding the unit in MP :-)

By localisation. I mean if the AI are not local to you, e.g serverside A.I

This does not occur if they are local

Localization is about language/translation Terox. This is a MP engine issues.
