AI Difficulty in SH5

yackwack · 02-04-13, 01:45 AM

Does anyone know how to increase the difficulty of the AI in SH5, or if there is a mod available to increase their difficulty, because at the moment enemy warships and aircraft seem to be really really stupid.

For example: I was playing the Mare Nostrum campaign, and during an engagement got attacked by a corvette. Just for kicks I decided to sit there, 40m under water, and take it. The corvette, who was pinging me with ASDIC, then proceeded to chug towards me at 3 knots and drop a stick of depth charges which all missed, even though they had straddled me.

There's no challenge when the AI is this dumb, so any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

get IRAI, a mod that completely re-makes the AI in the game.

Don't think you'll complain on stupid AI after that :P

Haha...for sure!
Maybe the inverse

Thanks Targor,

I downloaded and enabled IRAI, then tested it by driving into the middle of a cruiser battlegroup and making lots of noise. The AI are certainly more aggressive now, and I took damage, though the warships are still pretty inaccurate with their depthcharges.
It's funny, because some of them began to shoot at each other. Has that ever happened to you?

Thanks again Targor

Sometime they are too many, and dropping with edgedogs damage themselves

They also get better (more dangerous) the more the war goes on. Just as they did in reality.

that is interesting... If that happens again, I would appreciate if you could take some screenshots and post them in IRAI thread for TDW to follow up.

Targor, each time i play FX Update test mission, the 2 destroyers are killing/damaging themselves soon or later!

Easy to reproduce!
