it looks like I have either forgotten to include their heli tags or they were changed
anyway, I included it in the list, workshop entry should update soon
lmk if it still doesn't work

i see i did test it since i couldnt get it to do it i found they would shoot at the base game ai ship that got near but the raiders helli that i got to fly over in a creative test to not mess up my other game they wouldnt shoot at using hevy auto cannon

Thank you for your kind words!
That is weird though, because I have specifically included the Bungeling raiders compatibility. I will have to look at it later, maybe the authors of that addon have changed something.

love the mod and how you tweeked it to have cost to get gunners and loaders in the sence of the other mod but it dosnt work with Bungeling Raiders (Hostile A.I. Encounters) mod wich i found adds more reason to want ai gunners to assist you over the base games pve stile were you dont encounter anything unless activly going for a fight would love to see if even posible this work with that mod as they dont detect the ai from the mod as hostile though i dont know how there ai are set up in what the gunners can detect

Can they shoot at player-controlled vehicles? I want to have a battle between a bomber and a fighter. Both planes will be piloted by players.

my gunners dont attack this mod: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2937928735 with this mod: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3473823190 could you take a look why..

Sounds most definitely like a setup issue
Can you link it here so I can take a look?

when the gunner enter the seat the gun keep swinging left and right, is there a way to stop that.
Thanks.

yep
you can set a velocity pivot underneath and activate its rotation when the robotic is at its limit or close to it

does it only work with robotic pivots?

you should add full ai crew, such as repair and stuff, it would balance the search and destroy dlc

Is it because of the Robot Parts requiered?

Hello, Autor, Is it normal for the Gunners to Miss constantly? Just curious

also the chair's ai was set to gunner

not sure if its me, but my AI didnt fire a single shot, even though they were active and set to attack everything AND i was flying above an ai controlled base with a jet on my tail

ah me too

gonna test this out with a bomber

I think the addon is tweaking not even your example turrets worked

Could you make a Common Mistakes spot somewhere because one second these guys worked fine and the next they didnt do anything, i named everything correctly the thing is set to reset and trigger is push but they wouldnt open fire on AI, and just yesterday they worked fine on the same ship i used

I do notice an issue where the gunners will open fire on infantry units that are dead, and will not change target unless you bring them into closer range.

no

can they shoot players

Ah ok well i hope you do something like that lol

I was planning on a separate addon with pvp gunners
I'm feeling kinda inspired lately, so maybe soon, yeah
No promises though, sorry

question will you add an update or something like that to this addon?

dang it

I'm afraid no :(

Does it Work On Multiplayer if i play with my friends like say they try to shoot me down and then the AI shoot at my friends?

all good bro

nope im stupid sarry i checked it out last night and realised its some thing for scripts and mods

Not sure what you're talking about
AI pilots and captains have been in the game for a long time;
AI gunners were added with weapons dlc;
Recently infantry sentries were added, those require separate logic and are not included in this addon.

the devs added it so you can put ai ppl in seats i haven't tried it unless its some preset?

Alright, it should work now!
The gunners should target zombies and infantry on "land" and "all" settings!!

That's great! I imagine that infantry aren't treated as vehicles and also they don't have radar signatures like in the past, so I guess it's harder to implement a targeting solution. It would be cool to be able to give recruited gunners manual firearms for when they have to dismount your vehicle as well. Good work and take care.

I'm still figuring out the new infantry logic
I already see the potential to make these gunners also shoot zombies, if their logic also applies to vehicle mounted weapons
Lots of testing required tho

Hi, quick question, is it possible for this addon be updated so that hired gunners can engage the new hostile AI infantry? Or does the game present limitations in that regard. Thank you!

Thank you very much

no, those are different tags
vehicles don't have any when spawned from workbench, you have to spawn them with missions
press escape, go to addon editor, create a mission location near you, add a vehicle and type one of those tags

Hi, how do I know if a vehicle has those tags? Are those the "upload to workshop" tags or do you have to edit the vehicle XML and add them somewhere? thank you

These ones no, unfourtunately
There is a workaround for this, spawn some vehicles with tags "type=wep_land" or "type=wep_heli"
They will target those according to the set mode even if a player is using them

i shall ask cause i can't tell.
do the ai target other players/can they target other players?

yes
because of how devs programmed them, they will only fire when inside ~half of the maximum range of their weapon
so, machine guns will begin firing at ~250m, LAC ~400 and so on

do the gunners need to be in a certain range before firing the weapon?

Its link got changed somehow lol...
Thanks for pointing that out, I'll update it

what was your "new addon" that got deleted?

Are they actively targeting their own vehicle? Or is it just a matter of setting up the deadzones for them?

Hello, im using the AI on the Valkyrie which is a modified OPV Condor with guns, i modified the guns to be AI friendly but when i turn on fire at will the AI tries to shoot parts of my ship and wont target AI ships cus they are too busy trying to shoot parts of the ship they are part of. please help

Great! That sounds cool! I bet it would be a great success!

I am currently working on an arena addon, and it will have plenty of options for land enemies to fight!
But I might add enemy gunners sometime after to this addon, too.

There should be a way to spawn enemy ai too
