Hey there,


First of all, I do enjoy the mod. The Idea is great and the framework is there. However I noticed some major "issues" ( I am unaware if they actually bugs) that sometimes seem to massively reduce the risk/ danger of raids and make them easier then "run into my spike trap" raids.

1) Raiders trying to avoid line of fire seem to be indeceisive. It often leads to them running back and forth behind the wall they just broke, with some charging in and some looking for cover behind the hole in the wall. But overall, they end up coming in 1 - 2 at a time, making them easy pickoffs.

2) Sometimes the Ai appears to use...some weird stragetie. They blow a hole in the wall, and then run in. Obviously they welcomed by machine fire on the other side. However, instead of firing back, searchign for cover, they just "wandering" somewhere into my base. Not even with a active attack command queued

They just walk past all my gunners and pretend they not there. This also happens alot with centipides. They should do that or retreat. If the centipide turns and opens fire it has a high chance of killing someone. It trivilized a 15 centipide raid.

3) Sometimes the AI splits - but not attacks. I noticed this during sieges or with raiders that "prepare a while". I had a siege, called a ally, they mowed a few down, died and caused the raiders to "assault".
However, only 13 of the 24 attacked. The others just just idle around the "camp".
This lead to me "more easy" picking of the 13, then sniping 1 of the remaining raiders and they fled.

4) Raiders split up and do weird things. Sometimes raiders rush trough a open spot in the wall to run into my base - with no target. Then the 1- 2 people splitting off dont flank - or start fires. They deicde to start 1 man battles with a revolver against double autocannon turret without even seeking cover.

Overall, while many raids now need full attention, and I havent survived 1 year on loosing if fun yet without a elephant army taking all the shot since recourve bows tend to loose against machine guns and flak armour, midgame raids esp. feel alot easier now.
The AI doesnt split as descripted, with "tactical teams".

They just blow a hole in a wall they desire (mostly the one without 40 turrets behind it), and then start doing weird stuff. Some attacking me, and most of them just running into my colony...to do...thigns.
Just...running around. Maiby they tourists, not actually raiders, here to look at my colony, maiby they need to evaluate the buildings wealth while the others fight.


Its a great mod, but it doesnt feel like the description. The AI overall, once trough your wall, seems more dumb sometimes, not attacking full strenght and using their sapper abilites to overrun you.
Instead starting sightseeing or deciding that isntead of your colonists, they much rather start a one off fight with a pistol against a double anti tank turret.



Those are the settigns I use: Cassandra - Loosing is fun
I play on a 375x375 map, however 1/3 of the map is unpathable. Its a ocean side map, meaning the additonal tiles dont obstruct pathing - its not to long.
The max range they ever need to path to me are about 175 tiles - which is in range of the 275x vanilla size.
I play on "Hard" settings, havent changed anything

If you know what sliders to adjust to make the AI not do that weird stuff above Id be grateful to know.
Mostly Id like to stop the AI from breaching my walls just to then run in and ingore me, start a sightseeing tour in my base before starting a fence - cover 1 off against double auto cannons.
And of course half the raid party simply not attacking.
