Do Bots react on smoke?

[Spaehling]

yeah the question, is in the title. i working on my map and recognized that bots can see through trees. now i ask my self, if bots reacts on smoke or could they see 100% through it?

i think this would be nice to know, because i need to make more covers, if not.

greetz.

Smoke Grenades do in fact block the AI's "vision" of the battle field. The way the system works is that once the grenade goes off, we spawn a LOS breaking cylinder that goes away ~45 seconds after the smoke grenade goes off.

Standard smoke emitters do not share this behavior, however.

that means, if i put some smoke on an exp. destroyed tank, the bots can watch.
but with the smoke grenades, there is a 45 seconds long "block vision"?

is nice to know! thx.

Is there a way to insert a smoke emitter that also constantly blocks LOS like a smoke grenade does?
