Very Annoying indeed

This would be awesome to have!

They are not different. Brightness is a old deprecated way that got replaced by intensity.

Probably the easiest and most feasible way to implement this feature. Thank you kju-PvPscene and lets hope a brave dev can claim this soon.

This would greatly benefit so many scenarios where the mission maker might require Ai units to revert back to their NON COMBAT behaviors faster or slower than the hardcoded default 5 minutes.

This still happens as of May 2021. Clearly a problem of the Ai's FSM routines that don't delay the orders enough. Units who where just given the order to dismount should wait until their state is no longer COMBAT for being given the mount order again.

Confirmed I also still have this issue in Hosted Multiplayer. Usually the mission host is fine but one of the players complains about this issue on every session. Seems to happen to 1 or 2 players for every 10 players on the server.

Must have.

Well done! Thank you!

You are lucky it only fires twice. Just check how many times the HandleDamage EH fires on a single bullet.

Happens on Agents too.

I was part of this :) Thank you R3vo!

This issue frustrated me so much that I just gave up on custom UIs for Arma 3. I hope this gets fixed and the GUI editor improved to usable leveles.

Is this fixable?

This is present in the latest RC as "Suppressed" entity Event Handler.

Thank you Leopard for voicing some of us content creator's needs and requests here and on the Discord Channel. If this gets implemented the new features/gameplay improvements we could bring to Arma 3 are indeed many! And while there are a number of scripted solutions for this, none is both precise and/or performance friendly enough for large scale multiplayer.
+1 for this and +1 for Leopard.

Very detailed and in depth post SuicideKing! There should be indeed a way for the engine to unload no longer used textures to free up memory usage or another method to handle DLC assets without CTDs or performance degradation... Also, 4K textures are the norm now.

This would be optimal, currently we are using performance heavy script just to achieve this... Great suggestion and I hope it gets implemented.

Wow, that is great news @dedmen ! This will enable pretty cool scripts and mods to work better ;)

+1

By things you mean the vehicle being tracked by the missile? Or the object that the missile is going towards? Because the bad things here are two: That the missile looses track a of target just because you lowered your viewdistance and the fact that if you shoot your rocket towards an object if you reduce your viewdistance the missile just goes randomly anywhere instead of the original direction of said object. If the missile looses an object it just needs to continue going straight towards the last known position of said object or the direction it was fired at and not any random direction or perhaps position [0,0,0].

Thank you KK! This is very useful!

Reason for some cases of Ai shooting at players they are not supposed to see through buildings?

Thank you BIS_fnc_KK ! Nice fix

Yeah a volume setting would do the job well! Hope it gets released soon! Also don't forget a command to find who has VOLUME 0 easily.

I just can't imagine how many misses this issue has caused!

Another issue, when you create missions on the EDEN editor the game by default now adds a n OLD MAN dependency to the mission just as if you had a mod installed but you never really added anything OLD MAN related to your mission, just place a bunch of regular Ai units and the dependency will still happen.

I have found a solution. Instead of editing the enemy unit's loadout using the "edit loadout" option, I scripted the customizations to the loadout via the unit's init. For whatever reason, this works and allows all my players to loot everything off the body. It seems that the "edit loadout" option is broken in regards to the player's ability to loot their stuff.

Had the same issue just yesterday, pretty game breaking... kills the immersion for players...

Had the same issue (v 1.98).

• Hosted Game (Playing on LAN)
• Coop mission with 6 players
• No mods other than CBA
• Only one player had the issue. (non host)
