Hide-module doesn't work for AI with radar + hidden objects always visible on radar
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

When you hide a unit with the hide module, the unit will still be visible on the radar, causing hostile AI with a radar firing endlessly at the position of the hidden object.

hideObject and hideObjectGlobal will also leave the hidden units visible on the radar, but hostile AI won't fire at them.

It would be great if hiding an object with any of the available methods would make it invisible for radars too!

BONUS:
Is it intended behavior, that the hideObjectGlobal command does not work in the editor/ SP, while the global-counterparts of other commands do without any problems?

Hey, thank you for the report!

hideObject and hideObjectGlobal are intended only to hide the visuals and do not alter the functionality of an object. (Except the functionality that comes with visuals - e.g. AI unable to visually confirm a target)

I'd probably suggest requesting a command to hide a vehicle from radar instead.

Is it intended behavior, that the hideObjectGlobal command does not work in the editor/ SP, while the global-counterparts of other commands do without any problems?

This should no longer be true and it should work correctly everywhere.
