Max fire range=6000                    ;[m]
Max fire wait=12                    ;[s]
The lower the max error angle, the more precise the AI.
Max fire range here means at what distance the AI will open fire at you, not the range of the guns per se.

Remember to KEEP A BACKUP OF THE ORIGINAL FILE!!!
very nice find, i wanted to reduce the uber accurate guns that never miss even from over 5000 range. a trash can sitting on the water is not easy to hit but they never seem to have any trouble. i think a 15-20% hit rate outside of 5000-3000 range is more reasonable, then have a 50% hit rate from 3000-2000 range and 75% hit rate from 2000 range and under would be more in line with what i would expect.
