Autonomous guns have reduced accuracy when they're being "suppressed"
Assigned, WishlistPublic

Description

Sometimes autonomous guns have their dispersion increased to extremely high levels when they come under fire. They cannot hit a target right in front of them and will continue to fire until they run out of ammo.

Happened on unmodded vanilla DEV branch.

Expected:
Autonomous guns should not suffer from suppressive effects, their accuracy should always stay the same. {F25837} {F25838} {F25839} {F25840} {F25841}

Hello,

I was not able to reproduce this issue. Could you please upload a simple repro mission displaying the problem? It would be a big help.

Thank you.

Steps to reproduce updated and repro mission added.

those bullet impacts on the ground are from the turret?

It almost seems that unmanned ai is too human like. robots shouldn't have any fear, especially when they can't move.

Indeed, those impacts are from the HMG. No change in behavior after today's update either, which specifically mentions tweaking of AI suppression.

Edit: I put up an autonomous HMG in the VA, bullets flying all over the place, not one hit. (see screenshot above)

there has to be option to disable ai suppression
