About this mod
This AI mod aims to be more realistic than the current AI in-game. Personally, I think the current AI has some unrealistic behaviour. This mod addresses that issue by tweaking certain values so that the overall gameplay is more realistic, well balanced, most importantly it's still fun & challenging!

AI Overhaul
SWAT AI


- Swat AI will be more likely to shout at suspects if the situation is possible instead of shooting at them constantly not giving them a chance to give up.
- Swat AI will try to shoot at the Suspect with non-fatal shots not killing the suspect instantly so they just go down still alive and breathing, now you can get higher score more easily.
- Increased SWAT AI Hearing Range, now they can hear sounds from further away.
- Increased SWAT AI Vision Cone, now they clear rooms more efficiently and they will try to maintain 360° angle.
- Reduced SWAT AI Model Collision, with this change now you are able to stay very close to your SWATmates without them blocking your way (very useful in tight places) and you can flow better between them (very useful when entering rooms with them).

General Improvements
- Suspects are more likely to hesitate.
- Certain Suspects are more likely to grab a hostage.
- Certain Suspects are more likely to commit Suicide.
- Suspects are more likely to take cover/hide instead of rushing at you.
- Suspects are more likely to surrender if they get hit by a bullet, suppressed, or see a dead comrade. So after you shoot/suppress them, don't forget to shout at them, give them a chance, see if they are compliant or non-compliant.
- Readjusted vision cone so they are less likely to do a 360 spin.
- Readjusted movement speed so that they have more weight when zig-zaging/strafing.
- Added a few Roamers on all Maps.
- Added Randomized Traps on certain Maps & Game Modes.
- Added Bomb Vests on Hospital, Club, & Bomb Threat scenarios.
- Added a rare chance for "Unarmed" Suspect to spawn on Farm, Port, Car Dealer, Meth House, & Importer (Postal).

3. Hard: Data Center (Mindjot), Penthouse (Brisa Cove), Ridgeline, Club, Hotel, & Farm.

BE EXTRA CAREFUL WHEN PLAYING WITH THIS MOD!
BECAUSE THE AI IS MUCH MORE SMARTER & DEADLY!
A SINGLE TACTICAL MISTAKE CAN LEAD TO A MISSION FAILURE!
ONLY THE BEST TEAM WITH THE RIGHT GEAR & EQUIPMENT CAN COMPLETE THE MISSION WITHOUT CASUALTIES!

- Civilians who are part of the victim are more likely to surrender.
- Civilians that are "friends" with the suspect are less likely to surrender like in Meth House, Car Dealership, & Farm. Sometimes they won't listen to you so use your non-lethal equipment!
And yes my mod also works on modded maps!

Versions
1. Main Version, this version aims to make the game as realistic as possible. Recommendation 1-5 Players.
2. No Traps, this version is for those who hate traps! Some modded maps have permanent traps that can't be removed.
3. Terrorist Hunt, this version is for those who want to re-live the old Rainbow Six experience. Remove all Civilians except on Active Shooter & Hostage Rescue scenarios. Sadly I can't remove Civilians that are part of the Mission Objectives like arrest Amos Voll, rescue Belle Brady, rescue Person of Interest, etc. as they are hard coded to the Map itself.
4. Xtra AI, this version is for those who like more challenge! Add 10-30 Suspects depending on the Map & Game Modes except Ridgeline sadly for some unknown reason I can't add more Suspect in that map. Recommendation 5-10 Players.
You can increase the Player Count by up to 16 Players by installing this mod In Game Menu - mod.io
All 4 versions above already include SWAT AI Overhaul
If you are installing the Bundle I already mix & combine these versions, so you just need to choose the one you like!
5. SWAT AI Overhaul Standalone, this version is for those who don't like my AI configuration and prefer the Vanilla AI behavior or just want to pair it with other AI mods out there!
This standalone version only includes:
- Increased SWAT AI Hearing Range, now they can hear sounds from further away.
- Increased SWAT AI Vision Cone, now they clear rooms more efficiently and they will try to maintain 360° angle.
- Reduced SWAT AI Model Collision, with this change now you are able to stay very close to your SWATmates without them blocking your way (very useful in tight places) and you can flow better between them (very useful when entering rooms with them).
Installation
1. Make sure you don't install any other AI mod because my mod will conflict with them!
- If you are using Standalone SWAT AI Overhaul you can install it with other AI mods.
- If you are installing the Bundle I already mix & combine between mods versions, so you just need to choose the one you like!

Known Mod Issues:
- Playing with Xtra AI mod can cause some game instability issues like low frame rate, desync, and game crash. If you want to host a game with Xtra AI you need a good PC to avoid crashing.
- There is 1 Blank map marker on the bottom right side of the Map Selection screen, this is normal nothing to worry about.
The AI is nowhere near perfect, expect some weird things happen to them, the game is still in Early Access after all...
