NxLabs / Insurgency: Sandstorm
Deadlier Fire supports & Enemies
This mod is a Work in Progress (WIP) and is specifically designed for hardcore co-op. It is a total conversion mod based on my personal preferences.

Description
YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SHOOT A GUN FROM 700FT AWAY IN THIS MOD. BOTS WILL DO THEIR BEST TO FUCK YOU ALL. THEY WILL CALL IN FIRE SUPPORTS AND SHOOT JUST LIKE PLAYERS DO. PLUS, EXPLOITING THE BOTS’ INABILITY TO RECOGNIZE PLAYERS’ LEANING AND SLAUGHTERING THEM WHILE HUGGING WALLS IS NO LONGER ALLOWED. STICK YOUR HEAD OUT, AND BOTS WILL POP YOUR HEAD.
IF THIS SOUNDS ABSURD, I AM SO SORRY THIS MOD IS NOT FOR YOU.
BE AWARE THAT MUTATOR 2 IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH ANY THEATER OR PLAYER SQUAD MODIFYING MUTATORS AND MODS.
IF YOU ARE USING MUTATOR 2, 3_COUNTER, OR 4, DO NOT USE IT WITH IMPROVEDAI. MY MOD ALREADY HAS CUSTOM AI.
L'VE CONFIRMED THAT MUTATOR 2&4 ARE COMPATIBLE WITH MEDICON MOD.
AND, I CANNOT MAKE THIS MOD COMPATIBLE WITH ISMC.
PLEASE DON’T ASK ABOUT ISMC COMPATIBILITY — IT’S NOT POSSIBLE
MUTATORS:
IF YOU WANT MY FIRE SUPPORTS WITH DEADLIER ENEMIES, USE THE FOLLOWING MUTATOR: 2
IF YOU WANT ISMC2(ARBUSTO) WITH MY FIRE SUPPORTS, USE THE FOLLOWING MUTATOR: 3
IF YOU WANT MUTATOR 3 WITH THE DEADILER BOTS ONLY DURING COUNTER ATTACK, USE THE FOLLOWING MUTATOR: 3_COUNTER
IF YOU WANT ISMC2(ARBUSTO) WITH MY FIRE SUPPORTS&DEADLIER ENEMIES, USE THE FOLLOWING MUTATOR: 4
For example, mutators=ISMCGunfighter_Tac_Legacy, 4
(?game=CheckpointHardcore) This hardcore mutator is totally OPTIONAL, but I realized that the hardcore mutator restricts some bots' behaviors(I have no fucking idea why NWI coded it this way). So, IT IS BETTER NOT TO USE IT. Mutator 2 is ONLY for vanilla not ISMC2
If you don't want suicide bombers, use following mutators.
MUTATOR 2 WITHOUT SUICIDE BOMBERS: 2_NOBOMBER
MUTATOR 4 WITHOUT SUICIDE BOMBERS: 4_NOBOMBER
For example, mutators=ISMCGunfighter_Tac_Legacy, 4_NoBomber
FOR INFINITE FIRE SUPPORTS, ADD FOLLOWING MUTATOR: UNLIMITEDFIRESUPPORTS
This mutator must be placed at the end of all mutators. For example, mutators=ISMCGunfighter_Tac_Legacy, 4, UnlimitedFireSupports.

KNOWN ISSUES:
FIRESUPPORT MENU UI IS FUCKED UP RIGHT NOW :/
BUT, YOU CAN SELECT THE NEXT FIRE SUPPORT BY SIMPLY PRESSING X WHILE HOLDING A BINOCULAR. (NO NEED TO HOLD X, JUST TAP IT)
Everything has been fucky, especially Stinger since the last update.
